I always try to encourage my baby bassets to try new things that take them out of their comfort zone. This is something I do all the time myself and I rarely ever have any regrets. Yesterday my baby bassets tried riding a mini dirt bike for the first time. It seemed like a great idea at the time, until I saw the huge smiles on their faces as they raced by. I could see it in their eyes that suddenly they had the need for speed. I quickly realized I have no problem with excitement for me, but my sweet little babies was a whole other story.
