Basset Hound Rescue of Alabama (BHRA) is
an all volunteer, 501(c)(3), non-profit charity, dedicated solely to
rescuing and finding loving homes for homeless or needy basset hounds
from all over the state of AL (and in some cases, surrounding states).
Our rescues come from shelters, from owners surrendering their hounds,
and unclaimed strays. Every hound we rescue is fully vetted,
spayed or neutered, heartworm treated if they arrive positive, evaluated
and placed in loving foster homes until "forever homes" can be found for
them. The survival of BHRA is due solely to adoption fees (which
often do not even cover the vetting costs) and donations from the
public. All funds received go strictly to the care and vetting of these
precious hounds. We do not take administrative fees. Since
2000, BHRA has taken in and placed over 1,250 hounds in loving homes! To learn more, please click

a $3.50 coupon to use on your favorite Purina Brand pet food. Once
you redeem your coupon, BHRA will get a $1 coupon for food! Just
remember to select BHRA as the rescue/shelter you wish to support!!
Any rescue organization's most valuable asset is the
availability of foster homes. PLEASE...can you make a difference?
Without the availability of foster space, we could have to turn away a
hound that really needs us. Won't you please consider opening your
home to a needy hound on a temporary basis? Please see our Foster page
for all of the details!
If you can't adopt or foster right now, but would like to help in some
small way, consider sponsoring a hound! We will list your name as
a sponsor on the dog's page. All funds donated are tax deductible
AND 100% of the funds donated will go to helping the hounds of BHRA!
