Crazy Week

.. Well its been a crazy week of basset rescue.. I got 3 new bassets all young and needing vetting of one sort or another.. and as I'm having municipal problems boarding has come into play as fosters are like hens teeth.. so needless to say more is going out than coming in.. Alas hopefully the Universe will smile on BHRQ and help us out one way or another.. Of late I find myself seriously hoping that I somehow find a municipality that will not fine me for having extra rescue dogs.. as well the space for them.. at this rate of them coming in my place really isn't conducive to 6-7-8- bassets although at one point months back I was harboring more than that.. it was crazy time..

Oh well I'm just rambling.. I have to find homes for Ruby.. DeKyper.. Smiley.. Lex.. for now.. Wish me luck.. they are all sweethearts..

JJ Now..


.. Here is a picture of JJ's legs now almost healed.. I am so thrilled to see this for him.. His foster Mom has adopted him as he truly has won her heart.. Bravo Dr. Bollinger at Saint Hyacinthe Vet Hospital for doing a GREAT JOB..

Lex .. Isn't he lovely..



.. This boy is just so darn lovable .. he presently is at his fosters up in Saint Adele and happy.. He is living with 2 goldens.. his foster reports that he is a pleasure to have.. This two year old has been shuffled around enough through no fault of his own.. he is VERY easy going.. just 2 years old..as you can see he is a bit of a mix.. 1/4 foxhound the rest basset.. with the temperament of the fun basset.. Now if anyone out there can give this boy a forever home please be in touch.. Thank You.. Helen

Thought I'd Update

.. Today I have some time to update this so I'm taking the opportunity.. My brother had his surgery it lasted 10.5 hours instead of the usual 5.. as it turned out his heart was in bad shape.. as was trying to find a vain to work with in his leg. He is back at home alone and being 60 and trying to recover is a challenge but he is doing his best.

Now for me.. I'm still living with the threat of the municipality giving me grief as I still have an extra dog here.. so I keep my patio door blind closed as that was how they caught me last time.. he went into my yard and on my deck in order to get pictures of the dogs in my house while I was out.. Talk about a sleaze. Thats why I couldn't beat the fine.. he had proof.So now like I said I keep my blinds closed at least until Dekyper is adopted. I have had calls for bassets but still I have no fosters to help me with them and it breaks my heart. It was SOOOOOOOO much easier when I could just go get them and bring them here.. no muss no fuss.. I have poor Lex still in a foster for months now and he needs to be moved as the family is back to school and he is alone for hours and not enjoying it at all... He is such a sweetie I don't understand why no one has asked about him...

Anyways I will keep plugging along. I will be doing the Beaconsfield Pet Fair on the 12th so I hope to maybe find some fosters there.. If you pray.. please add BHRQ to your prayers.. We really need divine intervention..

Oh and just a word about JJ.. his surgery went great and he had his pins out about 10 days ago.. he is doing wonderful now.. the surgeon was quite please with the results.

Thanks for all the emails for my brother's recovery.. I appreciate them more than you know.. as those were the longest 10.5 hours of my life..

Bless You All
