My story

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

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

Subway is not a GGBR dog...he is a   COURTESY LISTING  for Hearts and Paws Rescue. Please contact that rescue directly at 530-304-7629 

 Hearts and Paws Rescue has this to say about this happy fellow:
'Subway, who likely is about 5 years old, was on the euthanasia list at the Yolo County Shelter due to kennel reactivity and 'a dislike of dogs.' Once Subway came to the farm, it was clear that he was no couch potato and is actually a super play dog to all dogs, big and small. He LOVES all people. He is super social and friendly, wanting to meet everyone he sees. He has a great recall and is great on a leash. 

'What is he?? That is anyone's guess, but the basset in him is clear. He isn't chunky; he is just big boned. 
Subway especially loves big friendly dogs and he is quick to play and just as quick to poop out after play. He is very comforatble and appropriate being left for long peridos of time, expecially if he has a playmate or a large enclosure of his own. He is great in the house,  sleeps soundly and he is housetrained. He is very bonded with my son and likes big men best.

'Subway is obsessed with cats, so no cats for Subway. He is great around horses. For Subway, the bigger, the kinder and gentler, and the more exercise he gets, the better he becomes. He needs and desires lots of outside time and another okay dog in his life is ideal. He would make a great compaion dog to a breed like the Belgian Malinois or herding dog who can outrun and outplay him. He is really good with puppies and likes male puppies.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All of our paperwork is on our website. (http://www.ggbassetrescue.org/info/adoption) but we expect an application form, a home check visit, possible reference check and an adoption donation. All this helps to ensure that the right basset hound is chosen for you, to match your lifestyle and circumstances, as you will become a "forever" home!

We do not have a specific kennel or shelter location to take our dogs to. We are so widespread that we just go from foster home to forever home.

More about this rescue

Golden Gate Basset Rescue rescues Basset Hounds from abusive, abandoned and unwanted situations across the whole of Northern California. We were formed in 2005 after operating for nearly ten years under the Northern California Basset Hound Club.

Today, Golden Gate Basset Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization. We exist solely on donations.

Golden Gate Basset Rescue takes orphaned bassets into foster care, usually in volunteer homes, where they are loved and cared for until permanent, forever homes are found. We provide veterinary care, which includes > necessary vaccinations, spaying and neutering, heartworm, flea and tick prevention.

Our wonderful volunteers spend time with the dogs to evaluate them, deal with any behavioral issues, and restore them to full health with good food and love.
