Snickers the Dog
He's a mixed Dachshund-Bassett Hound with some Lab and maybe some Percheron. Snickers now lives with his best friend Doug Love and a number of Fish, trees and plants in Greenbelt, Maryland. He came to Doug through Dachshund Rescue of North America Inc., at the age of about 1 year.

We know that he's part Bassett from his large pronate front paws, and he has the standard black and cream markings of a Dachshund. He loves to dig, and helps Doug in the yard. He came partially trained and completely housebroken, and Doug is trying to train him further. After he bit a few people, Doug tried to send him back. Because of the biting, Snickers is unadoptable, and would have to be put down. So Doug is keeping him for now.

Snickers has a nice, deep voice, and frequently calls to other neighbor dogs. He has been told to not do that before dawn, and largely behaves.
