| Ada came to BHRG from the shelter in Barrow County where she was found as a stray. Ada is a petite 6 year old black and white female. She is a great lap-size basset, weighing only 39 pounds. Ada is looking for a family that doesn't mind caring for her special health needs. She is doing well with daily medication for a herniated disk in her back and seizures. She lives a happy, healthy daily life with her current treatment. Ada gets along well with the other hounds in her foster home, and she shows no interest in the cats. She is housetrained with a dog door. Ada loves attention, she loves to give kisses, and she has a great basset howl and bark for such a little girl! |

| Chauncey was adopted from BHRG over 10 years ago! Now his owners are returning him because they are moving and can't take him along (Don't they allow bassets in Texas?). This gentelman is 17 years old and is trying to figure out what has happened to the life he's known for so long. He cannot hear and takes rimadyl for arthritis. He cannot do even one stair so his foster family carries him up and down. Chauncey's favorite activity is laying outside in the sun. |

Eva is a 14 year-old female basset. She and a dalmation were turned-in to Cobb County Animal Control by their owners because they were moving (?). Eva cried for her family and mourned her separation from them. Eva's need for attention is less now that she is feeling safe. She asks for belly rubs and is even playing with her stuffed toys. Eva is housetrained and uses the dog door. Her foster family calls her "the Diva" because anything that happens is a drama to her - nails, ears, bath. It is just too much for her special Diva-ness. She has a very cool mohawk on the top of her head, which makes her unique-looking. She is quite vocal when happy and at dinnertime. She is protective of her food and needs to be fed separate from the other dogs in her foster home. For this reason, she may not do well with little kids although older ones would be fine. Eva behaves with other dogs but would be happy as an only dog or with other submissive doggies. She has arthritis in her back legs and can no longer handle stairs. She completed treatment for heartworms years ago but has recently developed Cushings Disease. She takes 60 mg of Vetoryl daily. Eva absolutey adores her big futon in the living room. Even with her age, she still loves to gallop and arroooo. She is comfortable, happy, and very loved. |
