The dog with the largest ears in the world as recognised by the new 2004 Guiness Book of World Records, Mr Jeffries the Bassett Hound, is seen in this handout photo made available Wednesday, Sept. 24, 2003. Jeffries, whose ears measure 29.2 cm (11.5 in) lives with his owner, Phil Jeffries, in West Sussex, England. Mr Jeffries' full name is Knightsfollie Ladiesman and he is the grandson of Biggles, the face of Hush Puppies shoes. His ears are insured for 30,000 pounds ($47,800).

As near as I can tell, the only way to make this less avoidably ugly is to avoid it altogether.

What, exactly, is the allure of these Bassett Hounds?

I've always wondered. I'm more of a Weimeraner and terrier type dog person myself.

See, I love Bassett hounds. I love how they howl, how they always look kind of depressed, and how soft their ears are.

Of course, I love bulldogs, too.
