Please note that we currently have a waiting list of at least 50 approved applicants, and very few available basset hounds. We still invite you to complete an Adoption Application especially if you are prepared to accept a senior or medically needy hound.
DonateYour donations help rescue Basset Hounds from abusive, abandoned and unwanted situations throughout Northern California and the Reno, NV area.

Status: Available Breed: Basset Hound / Dachshund / Mixed Species/Sex: Dog/Female Description: Little Kiki may or may not have basset hounds in her lineage, but she is young, cute as a button and needed rescue, so, when the shelter presented her to us, how could we resist? Kiki is around 2-3 years old. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. She has some hair loss from flea allergy, which is now under control. At 30 pounds, Kiki is the perfect size--not too big and not too small. Kiki is active and gets along well with other dogs and would really like a home where she has a doggie ...

https://www.gogophotocontest.com/ggbr2021  About Golden Gate Basset RescueGolden Gate Basset Rescue (GGBR) rescues Basset Hounds from abusive, abandoned and unwanted situations. We do NOT have a kennel or shelter, so there is no location to go and see our available dogs, but you can learn about them here on this site and contact us for additional information and find out how to meet them. We were formed in 2005 after operating for nearly ten years under the Northern California Basset Hound Club. Today, GGBR is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization. We exist solely on donations. GGBR takes orphaned bassets into foster care, in volunteer homes, where they are loved and cared for until permanent, forever homes are found. We provide veterinary care, which includes necessary vaccinations, spaying and neutering, heartworm prevention, flea and tick prevention. Our hounds are always microchipped. Our wonderful volunteers spend time with the dogs to evaluate them, deal with any behavioral issues, and restore them to full health with good food and love. That means we know a LOT about our dogs... which helps us match the right dog with YOU once you have an approved application on file. |
