North Texas Basset Hound Rescue, Inc

North Texas Basset Hound Rescue, Inc Official Page of North Texas Basset Hound Rescue - Founded in 1984 - NTBHR is an IRS designated 501c3 non-profit.

We are an all volunteer organization dedicated to the welfare of basset hounds. NTBHR is a pure breed basset hound rescue that was originally formed in 1984 under Basset Hound Cares, an organization that operated under the breed specific Basset Hound Club of America, before rescue groups were popular. We became incorporated in 1997 and ruled as a 501c3 charity organization in 1998. We have rescued

well over 2000 basset hounds since our inception. Our general area of rescue is the Fort Worth and Dallas area, but we also cover many shelters in North Texas from Abilene to Waco, Longview to the Oklahoma border. Our first priority is to rescue basset hounds from area shelters once their time is up there. Secondly, when space is available we take in dogs that are classified as stray, once every effort has been made to locate the dog's owner. Thirdly, we take fully vetted, spayed or neutered basset hounds from owners when we have space available. Money is spent to insure that the bassets are healthy, neutered or spayed, and treatment for heartworms. On occasion we must make the tough decision of euthanasia due to health problems or aggressive behavior. Rescue volunteers receive no compensation for their countless hours and transportation costs. NTBHR is very fortunate to have several veterinarians who provide excellent treatment at a reduced rate. The rewards of a rescue volunteer come from knowing that a basset is getting a second chance and from a slobbery lick and a wagging tail.

Flops has been with us 8 months and NO ONE has been interested in this sweet boy. He is 7-8 yrs old, he has completed his heart worm treatment and is very laid back. Just looking for someone to lay by and rub his belly. Are you looking for Flops?!
