Our organization is comprised of volunteers from all walks of life, who donate their time, talents, labor and money to assist in saving the lives of Basset Hounds.
As a non-profit organization, we focus on the purebred basset hound who may end up in animal shelters, humane societies, or may be the victim of animal abuse, neglect, perhaps the basset hound was just unwanted, a situation beyond the control of an owner may land a basset hound in a "rescue" - or just being misunderstood.
Each hound has their own story and our volunteers pick hounds up from shelters and transport them to our rehabilitation center, to the vets, help socialize, care for them, feed them, groom them, work with them on leash training, house training, etc.
We know basset hounds, it's as simple and as complex as that statement. Being a dwarf breed, with the heaviest bone density of canines, the basset is not for everyone.
Those of us who volunteer in basset rescue do so, because we can help the hounds we come in contact with, help them recover from health issues, homelessness and behavioral problems.
Once a hound is rehabilitated and properly socialized, we also know how to find people seeking a basset hound, and help them integrate them into their homes.
The following items are needed to help the hounds and stretch the donated dollar.
- Kirkland (Costco) Dog Biscuits (one box per day)
- Bleach ( 3 gallons per day)
- Paper towels
- Toilet paper
- Fragrance free laundry detergent (one large container per week)
- 33-gallon drawstring trash bags
- Honey
- Canned chicken breast
- Long grain white rice
- Canned green beans
- Simple Green
- Leashes
- Dish soap
- Liquid hand soap
- Vitamin C
- Cranberry Capsules
- 2% or less Saline solution
- Rubbing alcohol
- Gentian Violet
- Boric Acid
Have a small, fuel efficient car you are thinking of replacing? Would you consider donating it?
Free Standing Kennel Runs - our new yards have been used several times this year. GEBR intake of 13 hounds before the 4th of July - Would you consider sponsoring emergency good weather runs for these yards? Several times we have had to do intakes of multiple dogs, and during good weather, these runs would be invaluable. Cost $6,000.
