About a year ago, my wife and I decided to take the plunge and attempt to "foster" a basset for Carolina Basset Hound Rescue (CBHR). I guess fostering to was the same as tryout for a new baby in the family. We failed miserably at fostering. That baby was adopted in less than 12 hours. Since that time, we have been active in several activities for and with CBHR. This rescue group is phenomenal! CBHR is the most dedicated group we have seen. They a highly organized, well-oiled machine with dedicated volunteers throughout both Carolinas. If you are interested in "dog rescue", you cannot find a finer, more active group than CBHR.
I have been volunteering with CBHR since I adopted my first basset in 1996. This is a wonderful group to be involved with. We have grown over the years and have numerous volunteers over both NC and SC. We have saved hundreds of dogs from shelters across the Carolina, and given them a second chance with loving adoptive homes. It is such a great feeling seeing these dogs flourish in their new homes!
CBHR, as it is known to us members, is a non-profit organization that has been in both North and South Carolina for the past 15 years. Its' purpose is to rescue, rehab and re-home Bassets that we find in 'kill' shelters. We are a network of volunteers who specialize in different areas: fostering, transporting, administration and fundraising. We take the fosters to 20 events per year getting the word out about our Bassets.
