Potential adopters are required to complete and submit an application as the first step in the adoption process.  Our goal is to adopt Basset Hounds into permanent, loving, and responsible homes. This information  will help us find the best Basset Hound for you and your family.

We do not adopt dogs into homes with children under the age of five years.

Our adoption fees for Basset Hounds are:   Under 1 year old - $300,   1- 7 years and 11 months  old - $250,  and 8 years and older - $150.  

All dogs are spayed/neutered, inoculated (includes rabies and bordatella vaccinations) heart worm tested and kept on a  monthly heart worm preventative prior to adoption.  No adoption donations will be refunded because it goes to pay for all the dog's medical needs before adoption.

Potential adopters  will not  be permitted to set a meeting with a rescue dog in a foster home until they have an approved application with Ohio Basset Hound Rescue. 

Please be respectful to our volunteers because they donate their time to help rescue abandoned and abused Basset Hounds.
