Basset & Beagle Rescue of the Heartland

Beyond Dog Friday!
I am not sure Mitchell is really a 'beyond'. He definitely has hound in him but also something bigger.
Personal space? What is that? Mitchell is not sure why you don't like it when his nose is smooshed against your face. He just wants you to know he loves you and it ready for some scritches. Also, he will be perfect for cold winter nights since he is ready to be your weighted blanket!
Mitchell is still a puppy so he would love a family who is active and has maybe another dog to play with.

All you need is love and a dog that loves you unconditionally. Mabel loves people. LOVES LOVES LOVES them.
She is one of the 'beyond' dogs we rescue from SE Nebraska due to a lack of animal control and a small group that wants to help all the dogs.
Mabel is a super exuberant dog that doesn't understand spatial relations. She may bowl right into you so she may not be the best with small kids. And cats look like something fun to chase. Dogs on the other hand are AWESOME.
With her unique coloring she is a stunning addition to any active family.
Apply for Mabel at www.bassetandbeagle.org.

They are waiting for us across the bridge....
Remembering the ones we lost but hold still in our hearts. And the ones we could not save.
One of our own recently crossed the bridge. He was a good boy. He welcomed many fosters into his home and showed them how to be a good boy too. We will miss you Farley.
Loving a dog will bless you with the happiest days of your life, and one of the worst days

We are in crisis with dogs needing rescue. This is the worst I have ever seen it in 19 years doing beagle rescue.
Our fosters are tired. Leadership is tired of trying to find space. Everyone is tired of choosing who we can help and who gets left behind.
We need more fosters... for puppies especially, but also adults.
If you have every thought about fostering, even just one time and are in the KC or Omaha area PLEASE reach out. Our hearts are breaking not being able to help them all.
IF INTERESTED IN FOSTERING, PLEASE FILL OUT THE FOSTER APPLICATION AT https://www.bassetandbeagle.org/fostering/

Meet our next Olympian, ⚡️ LIGHTNING ⚡️

Lightning is no stranger to competition. He was a runner up for men’s gymnastics in 2020, and has used the last few years perfecting his mid-run somersault for his canine floor routine. He took home 🥉 but with his spirit, we know he will be back for 🥇 . Lightning would like to thank his foster mom for the sprinkle cheese, it made all the difference in the qualifying round this year.

Check out Lightning’s Fanpage: https://www.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=1969197&name=Lightening++-+Fostered+in+Omaha

Looking to adopt your new best friend or register your pet's microchip? You've come to the right place!

🥇 WE HAVE AN OLYMPIC GOLD IN THE HOUSE! 🥇

Meet Americans Todd and Craig, competing in synchronized belly up wiggles. They leap into the backyard, execute a melodic anterior flip, then proceed in wiggling their backs into the verdant, green grass. These boys took home the gold, but who will take them home??

🏆 wasn’t the only hound at the Olympics today 🏆

Thor, the mighty 5 year old basset, picked up silver in hurdles today defying the laws of gravity and aerodynamics. To Thor, it’s all about the right motivation. Someone moved his favorite napping bed behind the finish line.

Congratulate Thor on his stellar performance by reviewing his Fanpage here: https://www.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=2124717&name=The+Mighty+Thor+-+Fostered+in+Omaha

🤩Look at all these future BBRHers!🤩

Tugboat (4 mo old basset available for adoption soon) and Mr. Bingley (BBRH alum) educated kids at Camp Rock this week about what it means to rescue! The kids had great questions about nonprofits, and the pups were incredibly happy with the attention.

Want to create more awareness on rescues? Reach out to Megan McKillip if you’d like a BBRH volunteer to attend your gathering, free puppy cuddles and an all around good time!

Rescue never sleeps! Thank you to the networkers and transporters. Because of you, 4 beagles are going to have great lives! Coming tomorrow to BBRH meet Patrick, Willie, Comet and a very shy Baylee! See the pups exploring outside a commercial breeding operation under reels!

19/07/2024

Whatcha doing tomorrow from noon to 2:00? Come join us at Petsmart on North 72nd St and met some great dogs looking for the best homes. Along with the pictured dogs, Tugboat, Oracle and Mathilde will be there to show off their cuteness.
Tell your dog I hear they have treats there.

🎤🎶We can't help but sing the praises of two of our volunteer VIPs!🎶🎤

Holly and Lynn are both FABULOUS in their own right, but together have raised ❗️ $1363 ❗️in the last few months! Between Dine and Donates and our May collaboration with Pint Nine, we are SO THANKFUL for the additional funds, which all go to these deserving dogs.

Please join us in thanking Holly and Lynn for being their awesome selves!

Another day in !! One of our past adopters Steve, now devoted foster home, drove 4.5 hours one way to pick up these 2 lovely gentlemen who were living in a filthy, back yard pen, breeding their whole lives. They smell of urine and are coughing. And only want to climb in your lap... On to much nicer accommodations boys! After being checked at the vet and getting their needs met, they will be available for adoption.

👯‍♀️ DOUBLE THE TROUBLE 👯‍♀️

Miss Emmy came into rescue with a big surprise. She went in for her spay and we found that this 15lb chocolate beagle was PREGNANT!

Even more surprising, the vet thought possibly 3 puppies, but this weekend, Emmy had SIX! 4 beagle boys and 2 beagle girls will be available for adoption soon!

With double the puppies, we need double the funds for vet appointments, puppy shots, and food! Can you help this new mama?

Post holiday weekend confusion? Wondering what day/month/year it is after all that BBQ?

GOOD NEWS! Never lose track of the days again with your own personal 🔮ORACLE 🔮 This absolute sweetie has been in rescue for far too long and is looking for a couch to call her own!
