Short-legged hound (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

basset

'short-legged hound' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for basset that I've seen before include "Short-legged hound that hunts hares" , "Type of horn" , "Type of hound" , "Beasts (anag.)" , "Sturdy hunting dog" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The Irish Times and the Universal.
