My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

I am Fred Basset!

I know there are a lot of cute bassets that share my name, but I am one of a kind. Just looking at my beautiful unique coat will tell you that I am a happy, friendly 4 year old fellow who loves to play. At 67 pounds, I am a big boy. Some smaller dogs say that I am too full of play so I need to spend my play energy with dogs who are more my size. I love car rides, receiving attention from my people, and i am well housetrained. I would be most happy if I were not left alone for extended periods of time unless I have a playful doggie companion. I haven't been around cats and I may find myself playing too rough with them.

If you want a happy Fred Basset in your life, I am your houndie!

Additional adoption info

All of our paperwork is on our website. (http://www.ggbassetrescue.org/info/adoption) but we expect an application form, a home check visit, possible reference check and an adoption donation. All this helps to ensure that the right basset hound is chosen for you, to match your lifestyle and circumstances, as you will become a "forever" home!

We do not have a specific kennel or shelter location to take our dogs to. We are so widespread that we just go from foster home to forever home.

More about this rescue

Golden Gate Basset Rescue rescues Basset Hounds from abusive, abandoned and unwanted situations across the whole of Northern California. We were formed in 2005 after operating for nearly ten years under the Northern California Basset Hound Club.

Today, Golden Gate Basset Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization. We exist solely on donations.

Golden Gate Basset Rescue takes orphaned bassets into foster care, usually 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, flea and tick prevention.

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.
