Story
We can’t believe this handsome, sweet boy Bowie is still waiting for his forever family! This beautiful soul has been with SBR for several months, and everyone who meets him falls in love. Bowie is a recently retired breeder dog who’s finally getting his chance at the good life. Surrendered to SBR, he’s only just beginning his journey toward becoming a cherished family member. He’s in excellent health, full of spunk, and has energy to spare—this boy is ready to enjoy life. Like many dogs coming from a breeding environment, Bowie can be a little shy and unsure of the big world outside a kennel. But every day, his foster dad sees more and more of his wonderful personality shining through. With time to decompress and feel safe, he continues to blossom into the sweet, goofy, and loving boy he truly is. Bowie’s ideal forever home will have another friendly dog to help guide him and give him confidence. A fenced-in yard is also a must—he loves exploring safely and having space to run and play. Bowie has now completed his wellness check and neuter, and he is fully cleared for adoption. This sweet boy is officially ready to find his perfect forever home, where he can enjoy the comfort, love, and belly rubs he’s been waiting for.

Story
Unfortunately we are downsizing into an apartment and can’t bring her with us . She needs time attention and preferably a fenced in yard. Have had her for 5 years since she was 2 months old . My kids have grown with her and she is amazing! Loves to play catch has a lot of energy nose basic tricks she doesn’t bark. She’s lived with other dogs, but that’s the only other animal she’s really been around. If you don’t have the time, attention love and the space to give don’t message.

Story
Meet Roscoe! This gorgeous boy is estimated to be around 3–5 years old, and he not only has the looks, he has the sweetest personality too. Roscoe was found as a stray and ended up in a county shelter before Suncoast Basset Rescue got the call to help. While we are not exactly sure of his age, Roscoe definitely seems to be on the younger side. His teeth are in great shape, and he appears to be healthy and well cared for overall. Even better, he is a very good boy — well behaved, rides nicely in the car, and gets along well with kids and other dogs. At this time, we are not sure how he does with cats. Roscoe is handsome, sweet, and already showing everyone what a wonderful companion he is.

Story
Meet Bohicket! He is a handsome 3-year-old with a big personality and an even bigger love for people. This friendly, outgoing guy is always ready for an adventure or a cuddle with his favorite humans. Bohicket’s mom recently had to relocate and unfortunately the new living situation hasn’t been the right fit for him. Long daily commutes mean Bohicket is spending too much time alone and no longer has the yard he once enjoyed. Although this was a very difficult decision, his mom wants to make sure Bohicket can have the companionship, activity, and attention he deserves. This social butterfly gets along wonderfully with dogs, kids, and even cats. Bohicket adores people and thrives on interaction, making him a great fit for an active family. Bohicket is an adventurous boy who enjoys walks, outdoor activities, and even kayaking. If there’s fun to be had, Bohicket wants to be part of it! His house training is still a bit of a work in progress. Bohicket understands that he should go outside, but he sometimes thinks the bathroom is an acceptable backup plan. With consistency and a stable routine—especially a home where he isn’t left alone for long hours—he should continue to improve. Bohicket would do best in a home where he gets plenty of companionship and activity, and ideally a yard where he can safely explore. In return, you’ll get a cheerful, affectionate hound who is always ready to make you smile.

Story
Meet Rosie! Rosie is a beautiful 5-year-old girl who brings the perfect balance of playful energy and comfort-loving sweetness. She enjoys a good romp around the backyard just as much as she loves stretching out on a soft, cozy couch afterward. Whether she’s exploring outside or relaxing indoors, Rosie is happiest when she’s near her people.Rosie came to Suncoast Basset Rescue after her owner’s health began to decline. When he realized that Rosie’s world had grown smaller and she wasn’t getting the activity and attention she deserved, he made the difficult but loving decision to let her have a fresh start. It was not an easy choice, but it was made entirely with Rosie’s best interests at heart.Now settling into her foster home, Rosie’s days are already looking brighter. She will be heading to the vet soon for a complete wellness exam, updating any of her medical needs and she will need to be spayed. We can’t wait to watch this sweet girl flourish with the love, space, and joy she so deserves.Welcome to your second chance, Rosie!
