Story
Bear is the perfect name for this love bug.  He's a gorgeous senior at 12 years old, and 54 pounds.   The perfect combination of Bassett Hound and Lab.  Beautiful red coloring. Bear is just a sweetheart.  No senior should find themself in the shelter.  We're happy he came into DRLA, and we told him his forever home is on it's way. He gets along with everyone...people and dogs.  Don't know about cats. He needs a home with a yard.  Not suited for apartments or condos. If you're interested in adopting Bear, please complete an adoption application to be pre-approved:  www.dachshundrescueoflosangeles.comDecember 9, 2023, 4:08 pm

Story
Meatball is a 3-1/2 yr old Basset Hound/Pitbull mix that weighs about 50 lbs. He was brought to a shelter after being found as a stray in the Oxnard area. He is house trained, loves car rides. He’s a huge sweetheart who gives big kisses and wants to play all the time but gets tired pretty quick! He’s been at the dog beach, gone hiking and practiced off leash behavior in multiple outdoor settings. Meatball has a hard time separating from his current caretaker and will be working with a trainer who will help his transition into another home. He is crate trained and has a clean bill of health, is up-to-date on vaccines, neutered and microchipped. If you are interested in Meatball, please complete the application on our website: www.adoptmerescue.org or contact us for more information. LOCAL AREA ADOPTION ONLY

Story
Bear is an adorable 2.5 - 3 year old, 50lb, Bassett Hound/ Labrador mix. We would like to put him in a calm home, with a secure, fenced backyard. He has short legs but he can jump high. He would be best as an only dog, or with a female dog that likes to play rough. He is healthy, neutered, current on all vaccines, and microchipped. Adoption only open to Southern California residents. We do not adopt out to households with children under 10 years old. An application needs to be filled out prior to meeting any of our dogs. An application can be obtained on our website http://www.deathrowdogsrescue.com

Marina's smile sums up her personality. She can't wait to get her own family who will love her joyful energy. She would do well with an active family who is ready for the challenge of a puppy.

Story
Josephine's photo doesn't do her personality justice. She is smiley, but calm. She may have short legs but she can keep up with the big dogs. She's got the personality of a lab in the body of a corgi.
