Bassett Whining, After being bred.

Question
I have a 2 year male bassett. As of 5-6 days ago he constantly whines / crys yet wags his tale. He is eating, urinating and have regular bowel movements. I did breed him with a female a week ago. That went fine. Could he be heart broke or might he have something wrong?

Answer
Eric,

I just happened to be online right now.
well, I just have to laugh. See my Brother In Law went through the same thing with his Basset too.
It is similar to heartbreak, I would said.
I don't want to be crude about the answer, so I don't know how to put it......
He is Missing his girl friend. He is "excited" by his experience, and like what happeend. So He is "begging" to see his female friend again.

As far as what you said I would have to say this is what's wrong.

Get him a big stuffed animal to play with. He'll work out his problems, eventually.
When he sings, sing with him. You'll just have to chuckle.

As long as he is fine in all other ways, eating and going potty. I would say this is your problem.

Poor little guy! LOL
Get Him a Big Fuzzy bear, Besure to take the hard eyes, and nose that he can swallow off and He'll be thankful.

Thanks
