3330 Bassets Rescued Since 1997
|
250 Bassets adopted in 2008
|
After the foster home evaluates the dog, our adoption coordinators
help the Basset find a good home. Last year, over 300 Bassets were
rescued and placed by this organization. But we do more than
rescue Bassets.
GABR has also become a source of advice and help for other small
charities. Our Corvette Raffle has over 40 charities involved this
year – our goal over the next 12 months is to make that total 100!
Over the years, GABR has developed a great auction – our expertise
is now helping over 30 groups develop their own charity auctions.
With all of this, our main focus has been to develop a base of
supporters that provide the financial and volunteer support that is
necessary if we are going to continue taking in the ever increasing
numbers of Bassets that we are seeing today. As long as our support
stays strong and increases, our mission will also continue.
It’s a great feeling to know that Guardian Angel not only helps the
homeless Bassets in our area but that we also help various other
breed rescues, cat rescues and humane societies, as well as many
groups outside the animal organizations. We know that we impact
the lives of many animals in addition to the Basset Hounds that we
help – it’s a great feeling!
Thank you for considering the adoption of one of our Hounds – you
won’t regret your decision.

COPROPHAGIA IN DOGS
Coprophagia is the practice of eating stool
(feces). There’s nothing more disgusting to
a dog owner than seeing their dog eat its
own or another dog’s stool, and then to
have the dog saunter up, tail wagging,
looking for a kiss and a few kind words.

WELCOME !
The basics of Guardian Angel Basset Rescue are
simple – GABR rescues Basset Hounds from Illinois
and Indiana that find themselves in bad situations.
Once the Basset is in our possession, we provide
the needed vet care - that cost is our largest
expense. After he leaves the vet, our new friend
goes to one of our wonderful foster homes.
Without the foster homes we have, our organization
would disintegrate.

“FLASH BOOM BANG!!!”
We have been getting mail from owners concerning anxieties.
We felt it is time to try to address a few of those. While there
are many varieties of anxiety, each will have many symptoms in
common. It is important to observe your basset to discover the
type of anxiety. Many adopted bassets may have anxieties
based on previous owner treatment or abuse of them. With
patient commitment and love, your basset can be helped.

Those Summertime Basset Blues
Okay, the weather is warm and we all love being
outside. Finally, we can walk with our bassets
without worry of snow and ice. So, why is it that your basset
drags his feet when you try to get him to the grass? I, Miss
Ruby D, am here to explain.(continued)
