Basset Hound Doormat #1 | All-Weather | Hush Puppy Welcome Mat

The Basset Hound is one of the most recognisable dog breeds in the world — a scent hound of French origin, bred for centuries to trail rabbits and hare through dense undergrowth with a nose second only to the Bloodhound. Known for their impossibly long ears, soulful eyes, and unhurried gait, Basset Hounds carry themselves with a quiet dignity that belies their stubborn streak. Nicknames like the Hush Puppy, Droopy Dog, Low Rider, Sad Sack, and Basshole speak to a breed that is equal parts endearing and exasperating — and utterly impossible not to love.

This all-weather Basset Hound doormat features a bold HOME design with a Basset Hound illustration replacing the letter O — a warm, breed-specific welcome that greets every guest the moment they arrive. Made from heavy-duty woven polyester with a non-slip backing, it handles direct rain, standing water, and prolonged sun exposure without fading or deteriorating. Looking for Basset Hound doormats?

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this doormat designed for?
This doormat is designed for Basset Hound lovers — and anyone who appreciates the long ears, soulful eyes, and irresistible low-slung charm of the Hush Puppy. If your home is ruled by a Basset, this mat announces it in style. It also makes a thoughtful housewarming or birthday gift for the Basset Hound lover in your life.

What makes this doormat unique?
The design features a Basset Hound illustration that replaces the letter O in the word HOME — a breed-specific detail that sets it apart from off-the-shelf welcome mats. The UV-cured print keeps the design sharp and vibrant even in direct sun and rain, season after season.

Why choose an all-weather doormat?
All-weather doormats are built for direct exposure to rain, standing water, and prolonged sun — conditions that natural fiber mats aren’t designed to handle. The woven polyester construction dries quickly, resists fading, and holds up year-round. Prefer a natural fiber option? Check out our coir version of this design.

Can this mat be used outdoors?
Yes — this mat is specifically designed for outdoor use in all weather conditions. The UV-resistant inks and non-slip polyester backing make it suitable for fully exposed porches, stoops, and entryways.

What size is available?
This doormat is available in one size: 18"x30", which fits most standard front doors and entryways.

Is this a good gift for a Basset Hound lover?
Absolutely. The breed-specific design makes it a practical and personal gift for any Basset Hound owner — ideal for housewarmings, birthdays, or the holidays. Tag us at @pupularmats with your Basset Hound mat in action.
