Meet Louie! He’s a hound dog.
Louie is Miley and Howie’s new cousin. This sweet little fella belongs to Kevin’s brother.
We got to meet him last weekend and I fell in love. I vowed to puppy snatch Louie and bring him home with me.
He’s got a heart-shaped spot on his shoulder. Melt.
And puppy breath. Sweet, precious puppy breath.
I miss puppy breath.
Louie can run!
But not for long before he tires out.
He’s got comically large, adorable, floppy ears.
And ginormous Frito feet.
He’s soft, wrinkly, wiggly, scoopable, and huggable.
I’m definitely puppy snatching this cutie with his smooshy, kissable jowls and wet, curious nose.
Louie can howl.
Play with me Howie!
Howie just doesn’t understand.
They don’t speak the same language.
Louie tried so hard to keep up with Miley and Howie but they just ran right over him.
Howie is a little jealous that he’s not the baby anymore.
Oh Howie. My little gray-faced man. I am in complete denial of the fact that you’re almost 5 years old.
This is my girl. My darlin’ heart.
Being this cute is exhausting.
And results in this.
Have a great Wednesday!

I am a huge dog lover and these pictures and their story absolutely made my day! Thank you so much for sharing!
Oh my gosh… SO adorable… he looks like those ears will help him to fly!
And I love puppy breath too. so sweet.x
Really great pics as usual, Amanda! And you get a lot of awesome comments as well. Ok, I have to go play with Louie now.
Oh my stinkin’ heck. That is one cute puppy. Pass him around so we can all take a squeeze, just a little squeeze.
Cutest pup pictures ever! That last one of them sleeping makes my day. :)
What a great bunch of dogs….and pictures! Love how floppy Louie is! Puppy breath is just the best! We lost our little boy last week to bladder cancer! He was the best dog ever….for 12 years. We miss him terribly! Made me smile to see a cute little puppy! Thanks for that!
Oh Amanda! They are tooooo cute! If you snatch Louie…..I want to be his babysitter!! I’m in love and didn’t even get a whiff of the puppy breath!
So adorable!! I love the one of all three of them sleeping. I just wanna scratch their ears. :)
Amanda, they are all so stinkin’ cute!!!!! The pictures are absolutely wonderful and I literally laughed out loud at the picture of the three of them looking at the camera. How precious!! Thanks so much for brightening my morning!
These photos are killer. Louie is too much my heart is going to burst. And when you put up that picture of the three of them together, I died.
So cute (x 100!)
He is so adorable! I miss my pug :)
OMG ADORABLE!!!!
These pictures are SLAYING me!
I wore big earrings that blew with the wind the other day, so I know exactly how Louie feels.
Entire post made me smile! Thanks again for the great photography.
I die forever – soooo cute.
i die…. oh my goodness. i want them all. :)
OMG! Love him! There is nothing more cute and hilarious than a basset hound pup.
OMG! I want one!!!! Way too adorable!
Oh.my.gosh!
Louis is adorable. It makes me miss how small my basset used to be! They are the most comical, sweetheart dogs out there!!!
That may be, quite possibly, the world’s cutest puppy.
And so photogenic! LOVE the profile pic where he’s kind of looking at you out of the corner of his eye!
GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, I really enjoyed the pics.
If I wasnt already melted…the last picture did it! I just ♥ puppies. Such adorable photos and some of the expressions are just priceless!
What an adorable Basset puppy! And I always love pics of Miley and Howie!
omg who would not want to puppy snatch!!! Beautiful photos!
OMG he is so dang cute, you cant get any more adorable than that. Every time I see a hound with those big floppy ears you cant help but want to go play with the ears….lol My uncle used to have them on his farm. I remember him saying watch this he would pull there ear lightly and they would howl…of course I would have to speak up and say stop it..lol I loved the hounds they were so sweet. He would drive me crazy doing that…lol
By way love the last photo of the dogs sleeping how cute.
I can’t believe they made friends so fast. Maybe you should do a tutorial on how to do that! ;)
That puppy is adorable! I think a weekend “puppy snatch” is in order for sure!
Louie is just the cutest!!! I have a basset hound named Winston. He was just as cute as Louie as a baby!
OMG, these pictures are adorable!!! I love his floppy ears, too cute!!!
Love it! My Beagle’s name is Ferrick but I call her Frito all the time because she smells like Fritos! I have never heard anyone else relate puppy toes to Fritos!
Aw! SO CUTE! Louie looks just like my Basset-same face. He’ll grow up to be beautiful! I need another puppy!
I want him! I bet his ears are so soft!! I love the picture with the crooked smile!
OMG!!! Louie is off the chart cute! We currently have a 6 yr old Boston, named Buster and a choc lab mix rescue. I lost my Basset, Scarlett a few years ago and would love to have another one. Your pictures are fantastic, they brought a smile to my face and also to my heart! I know what you mean about puppy breath. Thank you so much for sharing!
That was so cute and that puppy was the most precious little thing I’ve ever seen in my life!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful pics – you captured his cuteness so well!
OMG! Their just so CUTE!!!! My dog is a great dane, I can’t seriously play with mine like you did with yours.. :p
They look simply irresistable! :)
oh my goodness! I want him so bad. He is so adorable.
OMG!!! they are all so cute. good luck with your new baby.
So much cuteness it’s almost unbearable…. almost makes me want to get a new puppy to add to the two furbabies I already have!
I think my heart just exploded. Seriously. I am in hard core love with Louie. Beautiful photos by the way! I love how you truly captured his adorable personality!
Wow, so cute! I think that is the most adorable dog I’ve ever seen! Thank you for posting the pictures.
I love that you said “Frito feet”. Not everyone will understand :)
Cutest puppies ever! Nice website. I enjoy your pictures.
What a sweet puppy. I LOVE those ears!! Thanks for sharing all your great photos!
The fact that they all slept so close together is the CUTEST thing ever. This post just SERIOUSLY made my day. My little guy, Henry (also a boston) just turned three and I’m also in denial! I love love love when Miley and Howie make debuts on your blog… and now Louie too!
Your puppies cheered me up! My 3 Yorkies are insane retarded. They keep us rolling =0 I can never get them to look at the camera at once. They deliberately turn their heads before the flash. I have had them for 5 years and have maybe 5 pictures of them all looking at the camera at the same time! Joe
This put the biggest smile on my face!! Thanks for sharing.
My aunt & uncle always had basset hounds. One would pass and the next day they went out and bought a new puppy. I can’t remember ever them not owning one! I love when their little and they run and trip over their own ears! And those sad eyes, who could resist not giving them just one more cookie!! LOL
My daughters and I just got the biggest smiles from these pictures. What ears, what feet! And I’m not talking about the Boston’s. Seriously, too much cute factor going on.
I can’t even stand how adorable that dog is!!! GREAT photos!
OK…those pictures are soooo cute. How much fun was it with all 3 dogs????
OMG, the pictures were great. I feel bad for Louie because I wonder if his ears ever get in his way. Plus, I’m wondering how on Earth you got all three of them to line up and look at the camera at the same time. Excellent. I love puppies, to me all dogs are still puppies.
ahhhhhhhhhhhh, RecipeBoy and I both looked at this post together and we are in love with the puppy. Great, now RB is begging me for a puppy!!! HOW CUTE!!!!
They are darling! Way too cute. :)
Gosh, they are all so cute!!! That last pic is precious.
I want to take all three of them home with me. All I can say is adorable!
Those pups are adorable. Love them. I have a collie and a beagle.
Awwww….ADORABLE pups!!
What a cute puppy! I love the photos of all 3 together, especially the one of them asleep. You take great photos Amanda!
COMPLETELY PRECIOUS AND ADORABLE!!
check out my dog Minnie, she’s a Bernese Mountain Dog and totally cuddly and lovable at http://herumbrella.com :)
How Sweet:)
OMG! He is so cute! I love the photos of him running with his ears flying all over his face!
my heart just melted from sheer adorablness….
OMG I am in love! The sweetest dogs ever :))
I WANT TO PUPPY-nap HIM NOW!!!! Absolutely adorably cutissimo!!
Love your pictures – this guy is such a cutie it’s hard to believe. When the puppy breath has gone, you can always smell their paws. It smells like basmati rice cooking.
This is the cutest little mister ever. What a doll!!!
This post brought me to tears, it was so adorable! I can’t get over how each photo got cuter and cuter. You should be a pet photographer!
Had a bad day. Opened up a link my son sent me .What a joy in my heart .
May I have them all , PLEASE !!!!!!!!!
Incredible motion photography…..Thank you for making up my evening !!!!!

Love this! Your dogs are adorable!!! Our pup, Buhner, would love to play with them! He’s an 8 month old mini dachshund.
I have 3 basset hounds and this brings back great memories. Louie is LOADED with hound personality! They ARE the clowns of the canine world!
This is soooo cute! I’m so jealous!
I have had basset fever for awhile now! Dying to get a basset puppy :) Louie has gotta be the most adorable puppy ever! I love the ears :)
I have a 3 year old Basset Hound that we got as a puppy. They are the cutiest things ever!!!
Oh my goodness!! Do not, I repeat do not, let Ree know about Louie or he will be puppy-napped for real! What an adorable baby. Your kids were so funny. Could definately tell they were not as amused as you were with him!
My heart just melted! Fantastic pictures and story….thank you.
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love!!!!
I love love love bassets! I have two Chopper and Flash! The little puppy reminds me of my Flash, all we could say was AWWW, AWWW, and AWW for cute!!
Louie is so darn cute! i am a very huge dog lover and when they are that cute i just want to squeeze them and hold them and get the wettest kisses from them! i have 3 scottish terriers and they are all related and different colors! They are the best and they like to howl too and they are adorable when they do it! They are very spoiled and i think they love it! please try to put more adorable pictures up of all your dogs b/c i bet everyone on here would love to see more! Thank you for the joy and laughter you bring to many people!
What a cutie!
Dogs are the best! No pretense, no politics, no pettiness. Just precious. Love the pix of these sweet babies (5 years old is still a baby in my book). My Lacy is 14 and still acts like a pup (on occasion). Visit lollypupspetwear.blogspot.com and share our adventures running a business and growing old together.
Happy to follow you ;)
Those have to be the sweetest dogs ever !! And you captured their puppy personality in all the great shots you took of them. Can you come to Jackson and shoot pics of my four-legged babies?
Flove!!!! We are on our third basset. Once you basset you can’t back :-)
Soooo cute! There is absolutely nothing better than a puppy to make you smile. You’ve captured some great pictures here and I would love to share them on my blog, if thats ok.
Oh my goodness! So adorable! I’d pup-nap him too! All of them!
Thanks for share those beautiful pictures. I love all of them, specially the 2 of the end.
Love!!!!! I want that puppy! Don’t know how you stopped yourself from puppy-napping him!
Ohmagarsh those are the cutest pictures I have ever seen!
What an adorable little puppy!! My babygirl needs a little sibling soon…
Hello Kevin and Amanda,
we got your url from a friend. Gorgeous blog! :)
That last shot of the three of them napping together just melts our heart, awwww! Simply Fab!
Have a happy summer-time, cheers from two Italian expats in Scotland.
A friend of mine had a girl-puppy just like Louie, she kept tripping over her ears when running :-)
WHADA CUTE BASSET!!!!! >//o//<9

Your dogs are sooooo CUTE!!!! I want to get a dog so bad, but since I’m a college student, I feel like I’m not at a stable enough position in my life to get a doggy. :((((( Sad day!!
