Welcome to Our Rescue Shelter!


About Visiting the Bassets . . .


"Never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our souls when we look the other way."

~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Hound's Bay is Back!

    As you may know, the site was down for revamping, but it's back in business. We've got a lot of items that'll be coming up for bid, so check out our slideshow; maybe you'll see an item that interests you. If so, keep in touch with our Hound's Bay page so you'll know when the item's been posted!



    We Appreciate & Respect Your Donations!

    Basset Rescue of Montana is an ALL volunteer organization. There are NO paid positions. 100% of ALL funds raised via donations, fundraisers, sales of our logo items, Hound's Bay auction items, etc. go to support the rescued hounds' needs. Not one cent is used for expenses unrelated to running the organization and supporting the hounds.


    VISITING OUR SHELTER . . .

    We love to show our homeless bassets to the public. We do this by going to fun fairs, showing bassets in parks around Missoula at various events, and so on. Plus, for folks living outside our area, we have bassets on display on this comprehensive website under Available, at Petfinders.org, and on Montana's PetsOnTheNet.org.

    I can only schedule visits after receiving a completed, approved ADOPTION APPLICATION. I'm flexible enough that I'm able to meet the time frame and travel needs of approved applicants who've made prior arrangements and are coming to adopt. I schedule ALL APPROVED APPLICANTS whenever it is convenient for them. This organization certainly does realize YOU are its (and the bassets') futures! Thank you!


    If you have any comments or questions about this site, or find a broken link, etc., please email the webmaster. In the case of a broken link, please give a complete description of the link, including which page it's on. Thank you for helping to keep our site functioning smoothly!
