UPDATE! We are switching things up slightly for 'Bark at the Parx' Basset Hound Racing. We had a decrease in interest from our Basset Hound Mix group and were only at 12 spots filled (with a total of 24 needed). And we had an increase in demand from our Purebred group with many dogs added to the waitlist to race. Therefore, we decided to make the Basset Hound Mix group a SINGLE race (similar to how we do the Seniors Only race) and we ADDED ANOTHER PUREBRED race!
Again, we had a bunch of Purebreds already on the waitlist and they snagged those tickets...but we have 3 PUREBRED TICKETS AVAILABLE right now! Help us reach our fundraising goal and buy those tickets for your PUREBRED BASSET HOUNDS and see if they have what it takes to be a champion racer! Ticket link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/bark-at-the-parx-basset-hound-racing-fundraiser-tickets-887820443847
'Bark at the Parx' is on June 8th at Parx Racing in Bensalem, PA. If you want to watch the hounds give it their all on the race track, come join us...there is only a fee for the competing hounds and this event is FREE and open to the public! Check out all the details on our website: https://tristatebassets.org/events/bark-at-the-parx-basset-hound-racing/

Only 4 weeks until BOARDWADDLE WEEKEND!! We wanted to share a special story about why YOUR BoardWaddle pledges are so very important. https://rebrand.ly/BoardWaddle
Meet RUBY, who is a 7 year old purebred Basset from Alabama. Her owner surrendered RUBY to us so we could get her the necessary emergency surgery she required for IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease) to help her walk again. This is RUBY a little over a week post-surgery. She is recovering very well with a medical foster.
Ruby's surgery was well over $6,000...which is a tremendous cost. YOUR BoardWaddle pledges allow us to pull from our general funds for emergencies just like RUBY had, so we can quickly get the proper medical care to the hounds we help to save. Please continue to raise those BoardWaddle pledges...share the link with your family and friends! https://rebrand.ly/BoardWaddle
BoardWaddle is the best weekend of the year, so get your plans together now! BOARDWADDLE 2024 is in Ocean City, NJ and Linwood, NJ on APRIL 12th and 13th.
Questions? Check out our BoardWaddle page at www.tristatebassets.org/events/boardwaddle. Or send us an email at [email protected].
Note: It will be some time before RUBY would be available for adoption, and you would have to be an approved adopter. Please visit the ADOPT dropdowns on our website for more information. www.tristatebassets.org. More pictures of RUBY in the comments ⬇️⬇️⬇️

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Because of YOU, we surpassed our our goal for the GIVE A HOUND A HEART fundraiser!
Here is a video showing all of the custom 'valentines' that were created throughout the month-long campaign. Or you can scroll through the photo album here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.443473411372409&type=3
As you may know, the purpose of this fundraiser was to match $6,000 donated from an anonymous donor with public donations. And we need to give a very special THANK YOU to LINDA CROMIE who generously matched the anonymous donor! We are incredibly grateful for this unexpected boost of funds, which will help with some recent medical expenses for the hounds in our care.
We also drew two random names from the list of donors to receive raffle prizes. Congratulations to Amy Deputato and Kristen Funk! We will reach out to you to make arrangements for your prizes.
Thank you once again for your continued support of our mission to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome Basset Hounds and Basset Hound mixes in need.

DOG DAYS OF SUMMER FEATURED HOUND...GORDIE!
We featured ROSHIE earlier this week, and here is her brother, GORDIE! Video taken from his foster mom, GORDIE is a 6 month old hound-mix (we think Beagle/Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler).
GORDIE is a playful baby looking for a forever home that can provide lots of love, attention, cuddles and fun outlets for that energy! Could you open your home and heart to GORDIE? If you are interested in adopting GORDIE, please complete an adoption application or check out the current list of all the available hounds in our care. www.tristatebassets.org (click on the ADOPT dropdowns). We adopt to approved applicants in certain PA, NJ, NY zip codes (and some zip codes of other surrounding northeast states).
Also, even if you are unable to adopt a hound right now, you can still help! By sharing this post to get the word out about our adoptable dogs...thank you! www.tristatebassets.org

DOG DAYS OF SUMMER FEATURED HOUND...ROSHIE!
Another great video of available little baby...ROSHIE! Video taken from her foster mom, ROSHIE is a 6 month old hound-mix (we think Beagle/Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler) that saved with some of her siblings.

RUPERT - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
DOG DAYS OF SUMMER FEATURED HOUND...RUPERT!
We seriously have the BEST fosters who are so creative about getting the word out about the dogs they care for...like RUPERT! RUPERT, is a 4 year old hound-mix (we think Coonhound maybe?) that we pulled from a shelter in the south. He had a terrible mass on his head, which we had removed and luckily is benign!
Like his voiceover in the video, RUPERT is looking for a forever home that can provide him with love, attention, snacks and a comfy bed to sleep! Could you open your home and heart to RUPERT? If you are interested in adopting RUPERT, please complete an adoption application or check out the current list of all the available hounds in our care. www.tristatebassets.org (click on the ADOPT dropdowns). We adopt to approved applicants in PA, NJ, NY (and certain zip codes of other surrounding northeast states).
