More about the shelter
We are Helping Hands Basset Rescue. We rescue basset hounds in the central Texas area and place them in loving forever homes.
The first step in the adoption process is for you to fill out an online adoption application. You should receive a confirmation email within two working days that Helping Hands Basset Rescue has received your application. If you do not receive this confirmation from our organization, please complete another online application. Please keep in mind when completing the application to be sure to include your Veterinarians name, address and phone number. As part of our adoption screening process, Helping Hands Basset Rescue will contact your Veterinarian for a reference. We want to ensure that your current and past pets have receive all necessary vaccinations, heartworm preventatives and appropriate medical attention.
An adoption coordinator will contact you to discuss what type of basset would work best in your home. We work very hard to match the right dog with the right forever home. A successful adoption depends on both the selection of the right Basset for your household and the understanding of the Basset's caretaking needs. Through our foster homes, we are able to assess each basset for particular traits and dislikes. We may find that certain bassets may not be suitable in a household with children or may not get along well with other pets. We will discuss each basset and their likes and dislikes before placing them in your home.
Additionally, Helping Hands Basset Rescue will conduct a "home visits" to ensure that your family home is basset friendly and a suitable home for one of our dogs. We ask that when the home visit is conducted, all members of your family are present, including your pets. This visit will enable us to ensure that your home will be a loving, comfortable, and permanent placement for a rescued Basset Hound.
Please know that sometimes we can receive up to 10 applications for one dog and we are unable to contact everyone personally with our limited volunteer staff. If you are not contacted by Helping Hands Basset Rescue, feel free to reapply in 30 days. Sometimes the right dog was not available to fit your home when your application was submitted originally. Homes with small children (under 4) are particularly difficult to place a rescued dog in as we can not guarantee temperament.
