About Basset Hound in Fast CAT
Basset Hounds compete in AKC Fast CAT alongside every other AKC-recognized breed and All American Dog.
Whether your Basset Hound is logging their first run or chasing the breed top 20, the table below shows how the fastest Basset Hounds are stacking up by average MPH for 2026. Rankings come from AKC's official Fast CAT records, sourced live from apps.akc.org.
Points in Fast CAT come from MPH multiplied by your dog's height handicap (1.0× for dogs 18" or taller, 1.5× for 12"–18", 2.0× for under 12"). Smaller breeds with bigger handicaps often rack up more points per run than the raw MPH numbers suggest. For a refresher on the math, see our Fast CAT guide and points calculator.
