About Hilltop Basset Hounds
A Family Farm Rooted in the Ozarks
Hilltop Basset Hounds is operated by Sam Neutral and his wife, Rhonda Haden. Sam grew up on this very property, and together they have spent their adult lives here raising Charolais and Angus cattle.
What started simply with Rhonda getting a Basset Hound from a longtime local breeder has turned into a loving passion. The farm now maintains a small group of quality dogs, with Rhonda managing several litters each year.
Today we are proud to breed beautiful, loving Basset Hounds for families ready to welcome a new companion into their home.
Our Commitment to Every Puppy
Health First
DNA-tested parents and careful breeding decisions keep our lines healthy and sound, generation after generation.
Raised With Love
Our dogs are part of the family. Puppies grow up underfoot on the farm, well socialized and confident from day one.
Lifelong Support
We're always here for our families — with guidance, answers, and care for the entire life of your dog.
With heartfelt thanks to Ed and Evelyn Weber, who mentored us in the proper care and breeding of these wonderful dogs.
