THE BASSET HOUND CLUB OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, INC., our local basset hound club, has supported Basset Hound rescue efforts for many years. Some of the club's former members formed the first basset hound rescue group in Southern California long before it became popular. Here in Southern California we are fortunate to have several dedicated groups of people who work hard to save basset hounds from the shelters and help them find new homes. Please consider assisting them and supporting their groups with your donations OR adopting a basset hound from one of them OR fostering a basset.

These two organizations are actively involved in basset hound rescue efforts. We, at Woebgon Bassets, proudly provide financial support to BaRNi at Daphneyland, including sponsoring one of their dog runs, because of what they do to assist all bassets. According to Daphneyland records we have sponsored that dog run for over 20 years. They run an excellent organization that truly helps basset hounds. Our local rescue group here in San Diego is also an excellent organization that helps basset hounds in need.
If you can't purchase a basset hound from a responsible breeder who adheres the the AKC Standard for Basset Hounds please seriously consider adopting one. Even if you happen to live in another community or state there may be a basset hound rescue where you live.
