The Basset Fauve de Bretagne is a small-sized dog breed that requires feeding based on its age and activities. They need at least 3 cups of high-quality dog food. Monitor their food intake to ensure that they don't gain too much gain to avoid possible health implications. Provide them with fresh and clean water at all times.

The Basset Fauve de Bretagne sheds minimally. Occasional baths and weekly brushings with a horsehair mitt or de-shedding glove to pull away dead hairs will help keep him in beautiful condition.

They shed a low to moderate amount, and they may do a heavy shed once a year.

Grooming them would only take you a few minutes each week. Brush them weekly with a rubber grooming mitt or a brush with short, natural bristles. A fine-toothed flea comb helps remove loose or dead hair. Their undercoat may come out in little thuds.

Regular brushing will help keep shedding under control. With regular brushing, they shouldn?t need a bath more than every month or two. Ears are an important area to check when you are grooming them, so if you smell an odour or see wax, clean the inner ear with a cotton ball, using a cleanser recommended by your veterinarian.

Your careful weekly assessment will help you recognise potential health problems shortly.
