She is my own puppy....I sew a copy of my old Basset Hound Immaxim as a puppy.
She is made from short alpaca schulte mohair, and have a locline armature. Filled with polyfill and hairs from Immaxim, so she smell a little bit like her... it is crazy I know :crackup:
She have a movable jaw, with sculpted teeth and wired ears. I love her so much.
More pictures on my blog.

Wonderful. You even got the wrinkles and that bassett look - you know, bassett puppies look like their skin is 2 sizes too big. Just adorable.
wau she is gorgoeus , i love her
Nina , yes I know. I have two real Basset Hounds and one Blood Hound girl
Great job I love the way you have created the effect of loose skin . How wonderful to recreate your own pet :clap: :clap: :clap:
Thank you
The funny thing is, the real immaxim do not like this puppy. The little one smell a little bit like her, and the real one is a little bit addleheaded. When I try to take a photo from her with the puppy, she go and pick up all her bones and toys,growls and go away. SO I can´t take a picture from both.....
Your Basset is just perfectly beautiful. That's so funny about Immaxim not wanting the new puppy to play with her toys. Very cute.
My gosh! She is simply FABULOUS!!!!
Oh how did I miss this one!
Such a sweetheart!!
Are you keeping her as a breeder???
I want a puppy!
Cyndee, What a nice idea, in the next time, if I would ask what I do, I will tell the people I ám a *plush breeder* :crackup:
Thank you very much...
hugs

Good One Manuela!!
I'm sure like many breeders you will have a waiting list to get one of your pups!!
Cyndee, no I haven´t got a waiting list for my critters. I don´t know what my problem is, but most of my critters will not go very well on ebay (only 1-3 bids) so I am afraid to put a puppy on ebay because it is a lot of fur and hours to make one. Only the head need 30 hours. So I do dogs for me or the next show.

Well Manuela you deserve better!!
I know from being a buyer for many years you some times have to wait it out until you are discovered so to speak. Often times this has nothing to do with how talented you are but how well known. Not fair at all I know. But you do beautiful work and I for one love your creations.
Hang in there.
