Bassett hounds need a new home!
I have two basset hounds, one is 9 the other is 10, who need a new home.
After five years they still haven't gotten used to my children and have now begun snapping from time to time when the kids get close. Otherwise we don't have a problem with them. I really want someone who can take both because they've been together all of their lives. The 10 year old is brown and white and the 9 year old is tri-colored. They're both still playful but our family's growing and I don't want a dog that can't handle being around kids. Both dogs are great with teenagers and older. Please help!!! I don't want to have them put to sleep! -- Mark McReynolds McReynolds Design Group 214-551-5014 |

I don't want to have them put to sleep! I hope you don't truly punish these dogs for your failure to properly train and socialize both them and your children. If you are truly decided on the course of action of rehoming them please contact the nearest Basset Rescue to your location. You can find a list at http://www.dmoz.org/Recreation/Pets/...p/Basset_Hound /Rescues_and_Shelters/. Some accept owner surrenders, others don't; most will work with you to help rehome in some way, though patience may be required. Where did you acquire the bassets? If it was from a rescue they will probably take them back. J -- Jason Parrish |
