Happy Tails

We LOVE hearing Happy Tails of successful adoptions! If you’d like to tell your story, please complete the Happy Tails form.
Lulu

Lulu is loved above and beyond! She is picky to her food, but we found a type she loves, also looks forward to try and get a rabbit everyday. She is a love bug, also really doesn’t have hair on her belly, cuz it is rubbed constantly!

Duke

We adopted Duke from TSBHR in April 2019. We have him nearly 2 years now. He was very quiet, thin, needed potty training and a bit timid around our other 2 basset boys – Diesel and Gus. He was also heartworm positive. He no longer uses the living room as his bathroom, he runs and plays hard with his brothers, has gained weight, found his voice and learned how to howl, and after much testing and treatment is heartworm free! He is happy and finally found his furever home. We love this guy so much! He was a great addition to our family. He will be 5 years old and his brothers will be 4 at the end of January (their birthdays are only a few days apart). Thank you TSBHR for matching Duke with our family! Enjoy our photos:

Chase

Chase is a Tristate Basset Hound Pomeranian. He became part of our family in 2016, at the age of 8. He is extremely friendly, and is very well known in Ventnor, NJ, where he enjoys long walks on the boardwalk in his stroller. He is especially fond of our cats. Chase weighs around 7 pounds, and his best cat buddy is a giant 22 pounds. We are so very grateful to the TSBHR for rescuing him!!!

Daisy "MIDNIGHT"

Thank you so very much to the Tri-State Basset Hound Rescue. And the driver Miss Cathy for delivering our new family member (now Grace) to us so late at “midnight.” She is awesome and made her at home quickly. Thanks again and see you all at the Olympics and Waddle

Bodhi

We adopted Bodhi in 2012, he was 5 years old, he was our cuddle fur ball, enjoying long walks in the city where he had many admirors. He also enjoyed being in the Adirondacks with us, wintering in front of the fireplace. He passed in May of 2021 after owning our hearts.

Thibedoux 'TIB'

We adopted Timmy (formerly Thibedoux) from Mississippi over a month ago at 9 yrs old. He is such a gentleman. He adapted to us and our routine practically overnight. As you can see he is so handsome too!! He is just the sweetest and smartest boy ever!! Instantly he bonded with our 13 yr old beagle girl. We are so very grateful to Tri-State for matching us with him.

Noble

Noble came to us from Mississippi when he was only 3 months old. He is full of energy and love. He adores his older sisters(11-year-old Coonhound and 11 yo mix)and is keeping them both young. Noble loves to go anywhere his humans are especially camping. When we adopted we were looking for a Bassett/Bassett mix puppy to travel with us. We have had Bassetts in the past and they both were great travelers (our seniors not so much). Noble may not look like a basset, however, he is our Mississippi Mutt that has the heart of a Bassett. We wouldn’t trade him for the world!
