Q. & A. with Leigh Ann

  • Why did you start breeding?

    In 2005 my sister gave me my first basset hound and it has been basset madness ever sense . I very quickly became a basset hound person and 18 years later … I wouldn’t change it for the world.
  • What makes your program special?

    An amazing veterinarian and a type A personality ! Those two things have been an asset to my breeding program . I am very thorough with vet care as well as well thought out strategic breedings based on health testing, temperament, color and confirmation…..putting wellness above all else with my dogs and puppies . I am also very careful about contagious disease taking precautions very seriously to prevent any exposure to parvo in the under vaccinated puppies . My puppies are not only healthy but well rounded and confident. They are Loving and they are loved by us every single day from the moment they are born. Constant attention and supervision of puppies coupled with the strategic planned breedings to eliminate risk of genetic diseases makes for a healthy well rounded loving confidant puppy. My support continues through the lives of my puppies and if at any time during there life there is a hardship I will always take back my puppies … regardless of the age or circumstances. They will always be welcome here and I am a phone call away if my families need me .
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and brown, red and white, mahogany and white, black brown and white, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

    We couldn’t be happier with our new basset hound puppy, Siggy! She has been the perfect addition to our family—sweet, playful, and full of personality. From the very beginning, it was clear how much love and care went into raising her. Working with Leigh Ann was such a wonderful experience. You can tell right away how much she loves her hounds and how dedicated she is to making sure each puppy is happy, healthy, and ready for their forever home. The puppies were so well taken care of, and it really shows in Siggy’s temperament and confidence. We made the drive all the way from Ohio to North Carolina, and it was absolutely worth it. We’re so thankful for Leigh Ann and for the joy Siggy has already brought into our lives. If you’re looking for a basset hound, we can’t recommend her enough!

    “ Leigh Ann responded back with me very quickly and she sent me lots of pictures and videos she is a very nice person and really really cares about her Basset Hounds . she really loves them and is very caring about their health . She gave me update on my puppies vet visit. When we went to pick the puppy up, she had us wear booties over our shoes to protect the puppies and the other dogs from tracking in outside diseases when we left her home with our sweet baby girl she gave us a care package with blanket and toys with mother scent and training pads and food she had it all in a really nice tote bag with a folder that had the veterinarian visit papers on vaccinations and some extra info to help with the puppy . We named our puppy, Mabel a.k.a. Minnie . She is healthy and very sweet. Well tempered little girl. And we love her with all of our hearts. I know that she came from a good place.” Thank you, Leigh Ann for our sweet Mabel .

    When we found Leigh Ann while looking for our new family member, we hit the jackpot!! From the first message I received from her, I knew that she is a great person that loves to share her love of basset hounds with others. She is so knowledgeable about the breed and I love the way she pairs the fur babies with just the right families. We absolutely are in love with our precious Sadie! She went out of her way to make sure that we had everything that we needed for Sadie and she sent us with toys and and items that had the mothers scent on them, to help Sadie settle in her new home. I consider Leigh Ann family now and always will! She is a godsend for the basset hound families! Thank you so much ♥️
