two mixed breed dogs in need of homes




Mobie is a small 22 lb boy that wandered up to a lady's home in Mobile. Thus the name given to him. When found, he was very timid and didnt trust anyone. Since being with us, he has learned to trust alot more but still has to be brought in the house in our arms to be more comfortable in the house.


Mobie has been vetted completely and treated for heartworms too. He will be ready for adoption in about 20-30 days.


His adoption fee is 100.00 which will cover his vet bill.


If you are interested in adopting him or Walter, go to http://www.bhra.org/ and email the adoption coordinator who is his foster mom.

Walter is another mixed breed dog who also came to us from the Pensacola area with a phone cord around his neck. He spent some time with his rescuer until he came north where he has stayed with us here at basset land. Walter too has been completely vetted and is now ready for his forever home.

Walter weighs around 50 lbs. He would likely be great in a home where the adopter is an active person who loves to jog or walk alot.


He is good with other dogs, cats, and is reported to be housebroken by his rescuer.


His adoption fee is also 100.00 which covers his vet bill.




basset hounds galore


Well over the past few weeks, our rescue, Basset Hound Rescue of Alabama has taken in so many bassets that we are no longer able to rescue any more hounds. We just dont have the foster space to accomodate them until someone fosters a few of them or adopts a few hounds.

We recently took in

Milo, a beautiful tri colored male who is mostly black

Monte, a tri colored male from Hattiesburg, Mississippi

Francie, a stray out of Chilton County, Alabama

Mr. Peppers, a basset puppy out of Shelby county, Alabama

Peaches who had been adopted from BHRA and dumped at a high kill shelter in Birmingham, Alabama and numerous others who are being treated for various things at our rescue vet.


So if anyone reading this blog is interested in fostering a basset from our rescue or any other rescue in your own area, we all appreciate foster homes. They are our greatest asset.

You can also adopt from us or a rescue of your choice.

The bassets or other dog breeds sure do appreciate forever homes where they are loved and cared for.
