This is a picture of a Basset Hound Cookie Jar that my basset hound, Cooper, received as a gift from a dear friend and her two female dogs on Valentine’s Day. Becca is a dear friend and we are both lovers of all animals. What I love about this basset, which I have named “Cuddleton” is that it does not bark and does not wake me up at odd hours to do his business. Everyone enjoys getting unexpected gifts. There is joy in both giving and receiving, a lesson to remember today and every day!
