Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Sally (Ohbassetrescue@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.Miss Percy Sue Pickles came to OBHR under the name Persimmon but we have since changed that to something more fun and fitting!  Percy came to OBHR a HOT MESS!! She had no hair on her chest, bottom, hoo hoo, back legs and very sparse on her back. Her eyes were cloudy and goopy. She was obviously used to crank out puppies over the years and probably was dumped. Thank goodness she was picked up by a good hearted person who took her to the shelter who then contacted us. Percy Sue Pickles' foster family has been taking fantastic care of her and a lot of her hair is coming back in! She is still pretty bald on the booty and legs, but things are filling in! She has some new eye meds and they are also clearing up. We are not sure she can see 100% but thank goodness she has that hound dog nose! Percy is guessed to be a bea-bull...beagle bulldog and about 8 years old. She is a sweet girl who would love a family of her own. She is spayed, chipped and up to date on all shots, but it still continuing with her meds for her eyes and skin. She is a little gal at 36 pounds of spunk!   She is good with other dogs, chickens, ducks, lizards.....doing fantastic in her foster home! She is a spunky little girl who may take a few days to warm up to you but she will eventually pay you back with love over and over!  She is available for adoption now if she can go to a home close enough to our Columbus vet so they can continue to check her progress for a few more weeks.  If you are interested in Percy Sue Pickles, please fill out the online application at ohiobassetrescue.com. Once approved email us at ohbassetrescue@yahoo.com and we will put you in touch with her foster!       Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 25, 2025, 3:49 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Sally (Ohbassetrescue@yahoo.com) for more information about this pet.Meet Spot! Spot is a 2 and a half year old beagle basset mix hoping Santa brings him a new home for the holidays! He is about 26 pounds and up to date on shots and neutered. Spot is your typical beagle basset who is high energy and has a tendency to grab his own treats off the counters! He is house trained and crate trained and sleeps in his crate at night. He was relinquished to OBHR because he was one of 4 high energy dogs in the house and it was too much to handle. Basically because he is a hound dog! So if you are familiar with hounds he will fit right into your family! He will need a home with a fenced in yard and someone who can keep him active and exercised! He loves to play with his toys and snuggle, go for hikes and loves ice cubes and baby carrots! His adoption fee is $300 and he is currently located in Columbus.  if interested please apply at ohiobassetrescue.com and once approved email us at ohbassetrescue@yahoo.com.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Flash is a 5 yr old full basset who is looking for a lap to cuddle up on. House trained, can use a doggie door and a vehicle ramp. He gets along with other dogs and would love a furry friend to play with. This guy loves to go for walks and does good on car rides. Cuddling on the couch is his favorite past time and if you have a blanket you'll have to share, he insists. Flash does have some separation anxiety his foster is working on him with and giving him calming treats when he leaves for work. Ideally his new home would be home frequently and have experience with separation anxiety in dogs. He is being fostered in Toledo, up to date and fixed, and requires a fenced in yard. Adoption fee is $300. Please apply at ohiobassetrescue.com and once approved emailed ohbassetrescue@yahoo.com. We only adopt to Ohio and states that border. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 8, 2025, 9:13 am
