Basset Hound puppies and dogs in Whitewater, Wisconsin

About Me: Name: Panda Makita Breed (or best guess): Basset Hound or mix Approximate Age: 1-3 yr Gender: female Approximate Weight: 28 lb Adoption Fee: $495 Requirements: Loving Family, no children Why In Rescue: Transfer from Texas Rescue Updated Profile: Although cautious at times, Makita has a curious personality and she uses her moderate to high energy level to express it.  She is a somewhat active girl and prefers walking in open spaces such as parks.  She is affectionate and leash trained, although she needs positive encouragement to walk on leash on certain days (she has opinions!).  She is okay with some dogs at the shelter, and dislikes others.  She does not seem to like most children when she is at the shelter but in her foster home she is loving the older children.  She will need some training to help her be her best self when she goes to her new home/environment.  She is having a break from the shelter in a foster home and is doing well and loves the older children in the home.  She loves to cuddle! Profile:  Panda Makita is a super happy and active Basset Hound mix.  She is hoping to find a family of her own soon!  We don't know about her housetraining as most of the dogs that come to us from Texas spent most of their time outside before getting care for by a rescue group.  Update - now that Makita has been at the shelter for a bit longer, she is starting to react to some other dogs, so may be best as another dog, although she has gotten along well with dogs in the past.  She also does not seem to like children who come into the shelter so an adult home is best. We do put the needs of the dog's first, so it is nothing personal if we determine a particular dog isn't suitable for your specific home and living situation. If interested in adoption, the first step is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  If link isn't clickable, please copy/paste or visit http://www.bichonrescues.com.  Please note, filling out inquiry forms on Petfinder or Adoptapet and/or their application forms does not constitute an application for one of our dogs.  Priority in responding to inquires and applications is always to the applications filled out on our website, time constraints limit the number of other inquires we can reply to. We do our best to evaluate the dogs while they are with us, but they sometimes act different in the shelter environment than they do in a home.  Many times we do not know the actual breed/mix or age of the dog, in that case we use our best guess as to breed and age.   We are located in Mukwonago, WI.  Adopters must come to us, we do not ship our dogs.  Please do not apply for a dog until you are ready to adopt.  Once an application is approved you will be notified by email to make an appointment to meet the dog.  All dogs are seen by appointment only. The adoption fee through Bichon and Little Buddies Rescue is $495 for most adults and up to $650 for puppies which includes Wi State Sales Tax.  Included in this fee is your new companion who will be spayed/neutered, have a current Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (as required by state law), current on age appropriate vaccinations, heartworm tested (if old enough) and started on preventative, microchipped, and given a general wormer.  Other medical needs will also have been taken care of, such as dentals and treating ear infections.  To assist you and your new pet in adjusting to life together, you may chose to take an 8 week age appropriate obedience training course at For Pet's Sake Dog Training in Mukwonago, WI for $100 (up to $260 value).  You may opt to take Puppy Kindergarten, Adult Beginners, or Small Dogs Big Hearts.  You must register for the class within 90 days of adoption for the reduced fee.  For more information on the classes visit www.forpetssake.cc  More important information: ***We are a Wisconsin based rescue and do not ship our pets.  If you are considering adoption you must be willing to drive to meet and adopt the pet, as well as bring the pet back to us if the adoption doesn't work.  We adopt primarily in WI and IL, but will consider applicants in MN, IA, and MI.*** ***Please do not set up an appointment to meet the animals until you are ready to take your pet home.  If the meeting results in a match, you can often take the dog/cat home the same day or within a couple days if the medical care hasn't been completed.  We are not able to hold pets for adopters beyond this time.  Thanks for understanding.*** ***While we hope all of our adoptions lead to permanent homes for the animals we place, sometimes things just don't work out.  We do have a 30 day trial period.  For the first 30 days, if you or Bichon and Little Buddies decide that the adoption isn't a good match for either the humans or the pet, the adoption fee will be refunded minus $100 within 30 days of the return of the dog.  Bichon and Little Buddies also requires adopters to return the pet to us at any time that they are unable or unwilling to care for the animal anymore.*** ***We do not show dogs without an appointment.  The first step in adoption is filling out the pre-adoption application at http://www.bichonrescues.com/pre-adoption-form-dog  Please do not call/email until AFTER you have filled out an application.*** Bichon and Little Buddies is a State Licensed Rescue # 268555-DS January 15, 2026, 12:45 pm

Meet Millie! Nickname: Millie Vanilli Breed: Beagle Rescue: Albert’s Dog Lounge Age: Sexy Senior Weight: 40 lbs of pure wonderment Hometown: Tennessee somewhere Current digs: Hartland, WI Personality Snapshot: If I were a human, I would be your great aunt Ethel, who has multiple personalities. I am the sweet old lady, leaving lipstick kisses of your forehead whether you want them or not. Coming to visit you and sitting too close on the couch next to you to show my love. I have a marked lack of boundaries. But once I walk out your mom's door, I turn into that old lady who drinks Manhattans and catcalls hot guys. I just got a barbed wire tattoo because I lost a bet. And I ROCK it. I love all people, men, women, boys, girls, tall, short. My foster mom says that I demand pets by pawing at you.... HARD if you aren't responding. I can get a little too exuberant, and demanding, so cover your sensitive bits, ok? I don't to do any permanent damage! Also watch me around little people. I don't want my zest for love and cuddles to accidentally knock someone over! I love all the dogs, especially the ones who want to play with me, but if I am your one and only and YOU want to play with me, that is fine too. Big dogs, little dogs, let's play! Matching my energy and play style would be nice. I do zoomies, I like to play with a ball, and I like to wrestle with my friends. I can be pushy if someone doesn't want to play with me. I don't understand why they wouldn't! Millie's Stats: Sleep style: I am happy in a dog bed, but am even happier if the people bed is an option. Meals: I eat American Natural Premium Turkey with Pumpkin, 3/4 cup twice a day. NomNom Snore-o-meter: 2/10 I am a polite sleeper Bark-o-meter: 3/10 I will let you know when someone comes to the door, and I will entertain you and your guests with the songs of my people (quintessential Beagle howl) Shedding: 4/10 I prefer sparkle to shed. I sparkle. Your floors sparkle. You sparkle. But just a little bit. Fashion sense: think 80s at their 80-est. Neon anything. Scrunchy socks. White Reebok aerobic shoes. Signature color: Acid green and maybe a touch of super hot pink Walk-out song: Bon Jovi's "Bad Medicine". Because I NEEEED your bad medicine. Gimmee all that love! Favorite season: For a southern girl, I am an anomaly. I LOVE the snow! Give me the soft fluff of a snowy January day! Dream job: Professional pickleballer. Us old gals still got game! And also, it allows me to smack that ball at Agnes. She is an annoying twit. She has it coming. Special Notes: As long as you have love to spare, I will be happy with you. A dog sibling would be great, but not totally necessary. If you do have another doggo, I would love it to be someone who wants to play. I came up from Tennessee, where they thought I might be pre-diabetic, but my January 2026 bloodwork has my blood sugar looking just fine. I did have a lipoma removed before I came up too. Upon arrival, i was found to have Ehrlichia, and I am on Doxycycline until February 10. Other than that, no meds, no health issues!
