Woofstock! We took Dudley a couple weekends ago to his first Woofstock event. This is an annual event (usually it happens in May) that benefits the
New England Basset Hound Rescue. This is a great organization that does much good to place abandoned basset hounds with loving and caring owners. Please consider buying a t-shirt from them, or making a
donation!
The event kicked off with the Basset Waddle Through the Woods. When we drove up to where the event was happening near the lake in Sturbridge, Mass., you could see the many wagging tails of basset hounds as we rounded the hill. Dudley was quite taken with seeing so many basset hounds, and so were we! It's really something to see around 150 bassets all sniffing around and being their lovable selves.
The Waddle was attended by all the bassets and their owners, and consisted of an approx. 1/4 mile hike through the woods. All the puppies were in the front of the pack (Dudley insisted on being the first of course), and all the older pokey plodders rounded out the end. All that was missing were some rabbits. Some of the older chubbier bassets had to be carried over the finish line.
