| Abby needs a foster home! She is a 5 year-old, tri-colored girl who was turned in to Cherokee County animal control because their owners were divorcing and no one wanted to keep her or her sister, Flash. Abby has now had her shots and is spayed and healthy. She has been waiting at a local kennel for a foster home since mid-April. We should have more details about Abby once she's placed in a foster home. |

Adrian is a female basset who came to BHRG when her owner entered a hospice program. She is adjusting very well into her new surroundings in her foster home. Adrian has already decided what bed is her favorite, much to the chagrin of her basset brothers and sister. She is a true basset... a real professional beggar. She has the sweetest personality and just wants to be with her foster mom. Her favorite place is laying next to the front storm door looking outside. She thinks she is quite the watch dog. Although she is an old gal, she is very spry, she loves her daily walks and is always eager to go. Of course, she also loves her naps. It appears there may have been some abuse because whenever you go to pet her she cowers to the floor. But she loves to be petted and loves kisses. Adrian would do great in a home where someone is at home most of the time. She gets along great with other dogs, well at least other basset hounds, although she has no problem telling them off when they bother her. She needs and deserves love and warmth in her golden years. |

| Annette is a beautiful 5-7 year old petite (~40 lbs) red & white basset with fine fur and soulful brown eyes. She is intelligent, gentle, and highly affectionate, and will follow her foster parents from room to room just to be around them. She is a basset's basset - happy to lie next to you and snuggle, and equally delighted to go for a walk. She gets along very well with her foster siblings and if they're not up for playing, she has no trouble entertaining herself with a toy, tossing it up into the air and giving it the occasional bark. One of Annette's most adorable traits is she likes to sleep with her tongue hanging just out of her mouth. She's gentle with children and with adults of all types. She would love a nice big yard where she can play during the day and chase around squirrels and birds. She's not a big fan of cats (or rather, she's a HUGE fan of wildly chasing cats, so would do best in a cat-free home). Annette is spayed, housetrained, and crate trained, and is ready to find her forever family - a family that will be truly blessed by this little girl. |

| Autumn is a stray from Bartow County. This tri-colored girl is petite and very sweet. Autumn is spayed and up-to-date on her vaccinations. She is a bit confused and concerned as to what's happening in her life. Apparently she is a fence climber, so a home with a privacy fence or no fence (with leash walks) would be best for her. She is settling in at her foster home, so we hope to have more info soon. ADOPTION PENDING! |

| Bethany was picked up as a stray by Floyd County animal control. She is red & white and is around 4 years old. Bethany tested positive for heartworm and has now completed treatment. She also recovered from a urinary tract infection. This poor gal was in sad shape, but Bethany in doing wonderfully now! She is housetrained with a dog door, but because she was overbred, she will "leak" occasionally when she gets scared. She doesn't care who is getting in trouble, she is out of there. She has one of the most beautiful coats of fur and is very soft. Bethany is a little bit of a diva which will just melt your heart, and she has a little whimper that she will use to get your attention. She loves being with her people and will follow you around to check and see if you need any help. She loves mothering her foster brother and gets along with kids and other dogs. Bethany is a total sweetheart, and would fit in any home as long as she receives all the love and attention that she desires. |

Eunice is a blanket red & white girl who was found as a stray in Augusta. This girl is so loving. She is a snuggler, and she loves to be on the couch and in the bed. She will sneak up into the bed when she thinks her foster parents are sleeping because she doesn't like being by herself. She walks great on a leash. When she wants to play, she will run around in circles and bark. She gets along great with everyone, and she would be wonderful in a house with other dogs as she has a little anxiety when left alone. Eunice gets along great with everyone - men, women, kids, other dogs, and cats. What a good girl! |

| FannieMae is a beautiful lady who turns 8 in January 2010. She was being boarded at her vet due to her owner's long-term illness. She has allergies that are controlled by antihistamine pills twice a day in hot weather. She is spayed and up to date on all her shots. Fannie Mae is sweet, not aggressive, civilized on a leash, and easy to take on car rides. She loves people and would be happy as an only dog. Fannie Mae has a deep Basset bark that sounds like a dog twice her size. She is microchipped and AKC registered. She had an ugly but benign cyst removed and is ready for a loving home. Fannie Mae gets along with kids but is not toddler tested, and she's fine with other dogs. She doesn't use a crate in her foster home and is housetrained with a dog door. |

| Fergie is a 5 year-old, rare "blue" basset who came to BHRG from Columbia County animal control. She tested positive for heartworms and has completed treatment. Fergie is a low-maintenance hound who just wants a soft bed, some yummy treats, and an occasional belly rub. Fergie is crate-trained and housetrained. One of Fergie’s favorite things is to “wiggle” at people so they will jump at her and play. Fergie will snuggle on the couch and walks well on a leash, is quiet, and very well-behaved. She needs a quiet home, so if you are looking for a calm, quiet houndie Fergie is for you! |

| Kimber needs a foster home! This tri-colored gal was found as a stray in Pickens County. Her rescuer found Kimber and a beagle buddy and both dogs were covered with ticks. She stood patiently and let her rescuer "de-tick" her - including those on the inside and outside her ears. Kimber gets along great with other dogs and with kids, and she is not food aggressive. According to her rescuer, she would even do well with a dog-savvy cat. She wanted to chase but if the cat stops running, the chase stops. She is currently being boarded at a local kennel where she has been waiting for a foster home since late May. We'll post more details about Kimber as soon as they're available. |

| Linda needs a foster home. She is a cute little tri-colored gal who came to BHRG from south Georgia. Linda is confused about what is happening to her and is a little shy. She enjoys people though because her tail wags and she perks up when you talk sweetly to her. Unfortunately, she must be treated for heartworms, so she won't be ready for adoption until May. We'll have more details about Linda once she is placed in foster care. |

| Lolly is a 7 year old tri-colored basset. She is settling in to her new foster home. She is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on her vaccinations. She is a very happy dog and her favorite thing to do is meeting new people and other dogs, especially at the dog park where she is always center of attention. Lolly loves to go for long walks and play with her tennis ball. As long as she gets a good walk or has a big fenced in back yard to play in she will be very well behaved in the house. She is behaves well with kids and other dogs but will go for food in the hands of anyone. Previously she was housetrained with a dog door, her foster family is now having success with full housetraining. Overall she is a very friendly and sweet dog with a constantly wagging tail. |

| Nelda says, "G’Day! I’m Nelda. I’d been in my Forever Home for 2 years when they brought a baby home, but I wasn't crazy about the new baby and I snapped. So here I am with BHRG. So, I’m not that good with small children; HOWEVER, I’m spayed, up-to-date on my shots, microchipped, bathed and ready to become a part of your family. I have FOOD ALLERGIES so I can’t have anything with grains in it – I do VERY well on a lamb and rice diet. I love this world – it has toys and people and car rides and walks and toys and food and belly rubs and ear scratches and belly rubs and toys. I’m house broken with a dog door and like to go outside. Did I mention I like toys? I am curious and friendly and a good girl who likes to snuggle, and I even talk to you! My foster folks say I have a funny woof but it’s what I got. My toys and leash are packed and I’m just waiting for you to come see me – let me warm your heart and bring joy to your life." |

| Pearl came to BHRG from Dalton Humane where she was turned in as a stray. She has had all of her shots and is spayed. Pearl is tri-colored and is around 5 years old. She is blending in with her 3 basset brothers but keeps her distance from the Lab and Chow mix. The bassets in her foster home just said "Hey just another one of us---hello cuz!" She is coming up to us especially if we are in the kitchen. She does not bark and has only made a low, get out of my space growl a couple of times. She has done nothing unexpected. Very sweet. She is doing fine but can stand to gain a few pounds. ADOPTION PENDING! |

| Sophia is around 7 years old. Sophia is healthy and microchipped. She is overweight but is on the "Biggest Loser" weight reduction program. She enjoys walks around the block and will even try to run. Sophia is a social basset and needs another dog or human companionship in her home since she does not like to be left alone. She loves to ride in the car and she's housebroken. Sophia is not a picky eater and loves almost any food, especially chewy bones, although she can get protective of her food & treats. She also enjoys carrots and raw veggies for snacks. Sophia is not destructive and will not tear up the house. She enjoys other dogs and really craves attention. She'd behave well in an aprtment or condo because she's just one step above "couch potato" - not real active - and she's fairly quiet. This sweet girl really wants a home where she can be included in everything that's happening. |

| Tegan is a very nice, red & white lady who came from the Bainbridge Humane Society. This petite lady is up-to-date on her shots and was treated for hookworms and heartworms. Now this 6 year-old is healthy and happy. We have never met a dog that has a smile on her face as much as Tegan! She enjoys every little thing in life whether it is an ear rub, playing with her toys, or letting her ears flop in the wind during car rides! Her back leg has a limp but it hasn’t limited her at all (even on stairs) and gives her the cutest waddle in the world. She gets around great and loves going on walks, so she would be perfect for an active family. She loves kids and usually rolls right over to get belly rubs. There are some dogs that Tegan likes to boss around, but she plays with the two boy dogs in her foster home - sharing toys and beds. She is crate-trained and loves meal time. Tegan is definitely a loyal basset hound and wants to be by your side at all times. She is the happiest girl you could ever meet and would make an amazing addition to anyone’s family, but she needs a home with no cats. |

| Tessie is being returned to BHRG after 5 years with her loving family due to job loss and financial troubles. This sweet, red & white gal has been known as Ginger in her home. She is 8 years old, and she would love a quieter home as she enjoys her senior years. Ginger would be ok with older kids but not small ones, and she gets along fine with other dogs. Her favorite activities include having her belly rubbed and lying in the sunshine. Ginger has been very loved and well cared for, and her family is fostering her while BHRG tries to find her a new home, so that she won't have to live in a kennel environment. |

| Yuna is a 12 year-old, tri-colored girl who came to BHRG from the shelter in Thomasville. Yuna may be a senior lady, but she sure is fun! Yuna is a very happy lady who loves to play, sleep, and lie next to you. She's a good mix of energy and laziness. Yuna does well with other dogs, cats, and kids. She walks well on a leash and is 100% housetrained. If that wasn't enough to entice you to consider a senior lady, Yuna will put a smile on your face every day because she is a wonderful, happy girl who will talk to you. She also has a helicopter tail of excitement any time she hears her foster parents' voices. Yuna is the full package for someone looking for a good mix of personality, energy, laziness, and obedience. Yuna recently had a malignant tumor removed from the top of her head. Because of it's location, the vet could not guarantee the tumor was completely removed. Yuna will need a home that understands her special needs and future vet expenses. |
