Blaze Star Vega (or “Star”) was the tail wagger in a litter of basset hound puppies. For 12 years, she turned out to be the best dog a girl could have. Sweet. Great with kids except when she knocked them down. Mellow. The perfect cuddler. She died in 2007 and I miss her to this day. Do not believe the rumors. Basset hounds are not dumb. They understand what you ask them to do. They simply choose not to do it.
Here she is in my old beloved Miata.
