This is Mr. JINGLES HUTCH. Named by me, Leslie and Elaina, who is Dr. Kens' vet tech... Jingles is now neutered, in obedience training 3 x weekly and is gaining weight so he is looking GOOD. Jingles former name was Jack, but after being tossed around and on Craigslist last year, we are so happy we now have him. He is also having a little bump removed next week (mid Jan.) and is ready for Adopting. Jingles gets along with dogs, cats, has a wonderful voice, and is a loving Basset Hound.

Checkers is now available for adoption!
Checkers... tied to a tree with a 4 ft chain... for years we are told. No water or food for the most part... someone once in a while must have given him something as he still is alive. He was rescued from that existence and is now here at our vets getting tended to. I just visited him today and laid with him while he ate a nutritious meal and i promised him as he ate that he will NEVER KNOW A CHAIN AGAIN.

Checkers is the most loveable, tender hearted Basset... I have made a commitment to him that after his surgery to neuter him and remove a wart on his eyelid, and clean his teeth so his swollen gums will get better - flush his infected ears - that he will come home with me to heal. Also, I want to thank everyone for your words of encouragement and to receive your donations is a God send to us for him.

Due to Checkers having been starved, he is very protective of his food and all treats whether given to him or just on the ground for all the dogs. We totally understand this behavior and respect it. He does not need to be the only dog in a home as long as his adoptive parents are careful with his feeding program.

Hank is about the sweetest basset mix boy you'd ever want to meet, and he's now entered into our "Houndie Homestead" for his care, as he was born with a severely deformed front leg and it hurts him to get around. His care will be expensive, and we felt the "Houndie Homestead" (where we usually place our unadoptable bassets) will be his best bet until we get his regimen completely figured out and he's able to be adopted.

He's settled in with everyone at the ranch and enjoys running amok (within his limits, of course) in the Creek Crossing with all the other pooches. Hank is very obedient, loving, gives loads of snooter kisses and radiates happiness... but he starts to limp after only a little while, and you can tell he's bravely trying to overlook his pain, but I can tell! Hank's a dead-ringer for my beloved Colbee Ames, who left me for the Bridge so unexpectedly only months ago, dying from cancer, so... Hank now eats where Colbee Ames used to eat, and I have pulled out of storage Colbee's special stainless steel food bowl that he used to eat from! Before that, it was my beloved MayBell's... boy we sure do get attached, don't we?!

Hank's medical bills are mounting. He's already had all his shots, been dewormed, and had x-rays of his legs. The orthopedic vet, Dr. Mark Albrecht, said surgery isn't a good option at this point, and recommended we give him specialized care, including therapy and medications such as Rimadyl. Such care and medication to keep Hank comfortable, mobile and pain free is gonna cost! PLEASE, if you can help, just click on the donation button below and donate via PayPal! Every penny will help!
