droopy ears
Basset hound feature
Droopy ears hang down loosely rather than standing erect—characteristic of basset hounds, beagles, and spaniels.
The trait is bred into certain dog breeds and occurs naturally in rabbits and other animals.
Droopy ears may suggest a sad or sleepy expression: The old hound's droopy ears dragged along the ground as he walked.
