My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Where does Charleston's story begin. Well, it begins in the City of El Paso where he was found wandering the streets. Neglected, skinny, toes nails embedded into his pads, forgotten. He was tossed aside like a piece of garbage. Who knows what his home life was like but the way he was discovered seems like he wasn't ever taken care of.
Fast forward to today, you would have never guessed that this goofy, spunky, happy, soulful dog had ever been on the streets of El Paso.
He is full of personality. Just look at his Forth of July outfit. You can see the regal gentleman deep in his eyes. His gentle demeanor and his tender soul, as he sits proudly showing off his is glorious outfit. Charleston has grown fond of the pampered life. He loves a good snuggle on the comfy couch while watching his favorite tv shows next to you. He adores his affection and attention. Charleston is never looking back, he is only looking forward. He is ready to find his forever home where he woud love to contine to carry out his pampering days well into his golden years.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on shots, and given any type of treatment that is necessary for their well-being. They will be medically ready at the time of adoption. The average donation fee for adoptions is $200. Puppies are $250 and seniors are $150.

The first step in the process is to complete an Adoption Application. Upon receipt of your application, we take the following steps:
1. Call your vet(s) and landlord, if applicable, for reference checks.
2. Conduct a phone interview.
3. Perform a home visit. We require, if at all possible, all family members who need to be onboard with the new addtion be present at the home visit.
4. Upon approval, a meet-n-greet with your desired dog will be arranged at your home.

Go meet their pets

We do not have a facility. All of our dogs are in private foster homes. Check our web site's home page often. It'll let you know which foster event we'll be attending next so you can see all the dogs. Our Web site is: www.bassetrescueacrosstexas.org.

More about this rescue

We are a non-profit organization staffed solely by volunteers devoted to the rescue of unwanted, abused, and homeless basset hounds in the Dallas, Texas area and surrounding regions. As we are funded entirely by donations from the public, the continuation of our work depends on the generosity of each one of you.

Bassets are rescued from shelters or received directly from owners who feel unable or unwilling to continue to care for them. The basset is placed in one of our organization's volunteer foster homes where it may be evaluated in terms of temperament and behavior. Medical conditions are addressed and all unaltered animals are spayed/neutered prior to being adopted by their new "forever families."

In conjunction with our rescue activities, educating the community regarding responsible and humane pet ownership is another aspect of our mission. This includes informing the public of the current pet overpopulation crisis, the benefits of spaying/neutering programs, and the dangers of irresponsible breeding.

Finally, our group is also focused on promoting a sense of community amongst those who are "owned" by a basset hound (or would like to be.) We are open to your suggestions for different activities and will plan future events based on attendees' feedback.
