Corkey Bassets

Corkey Bassets, run by Nancy Corkey, has been breeding basset hounds in Christiansburg, Virginia for roughly 24 years. The kennel sits in the Blue Ridge Mountains, about 40 miles southwest of Roanoke in the New River Valley.

Nancy and her husband Dan have approached the program as devoted hobby breeders, focusing exclusively on the basset hound. Their dogs are health tested for conditions relevant to the breed, including Thrombopathia, MPS1, Glaucoma, POAG, and Lafora disease, and are shown on the regional circuit to confirm they meet the AKC breed standard before being used in a breeding program. Dogs from the kennel have earned AKC champion titles at shows across the East Coast.

Corkey Bassets holds memberships in the Basset Hound Club of America, the Potomac Basset Hound Club, and the Mid-South Basset Hound Club. Nancy screens prospective homes carefully, prioritizing families who understand the breed's needs and can offer consistent daily companionship. Families looking for basset hound puppies in Virginia from a conformation-focused program will find that Corkey Bassets draws from champion American and European lines.
