This is a basset hound just being true to his nature.
Remember the old camp song:
Do your ears hang low?
Do they wobble to and fro?
Can you tie them in a knot?
Can you tie them in a bow?
Can you throw them over your shoulder
Like a continental soldier?
Do your ears hang low?
Oh gosh now you've put that song in my head and I can't stop singing it AND doing the actions to it. My friends and I have changed the word ears to boobs now that we are aging!!! LOL
