My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bob is a 5 year old basset hound who has led a life of want. Seven weeks ago he was removed from his owners’ home for abuse and neglect. When he was finally taken in by animal rescue, he weighed less than 30 pounds. A basset of Bob’s stature should weigh more than 50 pounds. The neglect was so severe the veterinarians that evaluated Bob were not sure he could be saved; sometimes there is just nothing that can be done.
However, one vet agreed to take a chance, and his treatment began. Bob’s first 3 days were touch and go as he was receiving twenty-four hour IV therapy. Slowly, he began to regain strength and start to eat again. After three weeks in the hospital, he was released to a foster home to continue his battle to recover. As Bob’s healing continued, an amazing dog began to emerge.

As his body heals, we are seeing more and more of the loving, dedicated, family dog that Bob wants to be. All he wants is someone to take a nap with – preferably in their lap – and a tummy rub as he falls asleep. Bob gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children. Bob is up-to-date on his shots, heartworm negative and microchipped. He will need a special diet for at least 3 more months. If you have love and time to share with Bob; fill out an online application today.
