What We Do
We’ve been raising & showing Basset Hounds in Wisconsin for over 50 years. We have over 160 BASSET TITLE HOLDERS to our credit. We did it ourselves with only 1 or 2 litters a year, without the backing of big money or big time handlers. We did it the old fashioned way… we earned our titles. Never forgetting what got us here in the first place, the love of our hounds and the importance of them in our lives. We are reputable, responsible Basset Hound breeders who put the dogs first. It is not always easy to get a Basset when you want one, but they are worth the wait. This website is dedicated to educating and informing people about quality Bassets.
Whelp Boxes
While we don’t always have puppies available, they are worth the wait.

Olde Fashion Basset Owner Testimonials
Here are some comments from the extended Olde Fashion family…
We weren’t expecting to be looking for a puppy when we did. Our old basset was chugging along and our year-old puppy was busy bedeviling her when suddenly the old girl’s kidneys failed and we had to put her down. The puppy was beside herself, being an only dog for the first time. Jane had contacted friends of ours…
We have three Basset Hounds from Jane and we love them dearly. We first brought Murphy home in March of 2020. He is 3 years old and such a gentle big brother to his two younger siblings. Frank and Winston joined our family in April of 2021, and they are from the same litter and true brothers. Currently, they…
Mister Wilson saved our life after our loss of Mountain Dewey, he was a Olde Fashion Basset from Jane Baetz and a perfect boy he was. He enjoyed the Northwoods of Wisconsin, living in an old log cabin on a Lake. He had better sea legs than most sailors I know. He enjoyed kissing every caught fish, the quiet…
We can’t say enough about Jane and Olde Fashion. We have had 3 bassets from Jane and they are all amazing and have wonderful personalities. The outcome of forty plus years of breeding is evident in the quality of each and every dog. Each dog has such great temperaments. The dogs are more than a pet but family members….
When I was a kid in the 1990s, my family got my first dog from Jane. Her name was Abby and she was an amazing basset hound. I was lucky to be able to grow up with such an awesome pet/friend and miss her dearly to this day. Now, as an adult in my 30s, my 2 daughters and…
Over 25 years ago we were graced with our first Basset Hound from Olde Fashion. We are now on our 4th. Jane and Bethany’s love and commitment to their dogs doesn’t stop after your purchase; their willingness to help in any way never ends. Olde Fashion has become part of our extended family. We wouldn’t have it any other…
For many years I’ve always wanted to have an Olde Fashion Basset Hound. Meet Lambeau, born on April 4, 2014, bred by Olde Fashion Bassets. Lambeau came to me as an adult, age 5.5 when his owner passed away in Northern California and when I learned he needed a new family and that he was one of Jane and Bethany’s…
My search for a Basset Hound Puppy started a long time ago, as in before I moved to Alaska in 1990. However, after my new husband and I moved back to Florida in 2009, I seriously began my search that took about two years after I retired. Granny contacted me on FB regarding three males and one female puppy…
