Adoption apps can take from 2 to 4 business days to process.

A successful adoption depends on the selection of the right basset for your household. So that we may assist you with this selection, please answer the following questions as completely as possible.

Please remember that we are an organization made up of volunteers, all of whom lead busy lives. We will respond to your application as quickly as possible, but there may be some delay. Please don't think we have forgotten you! You are important to us and we will be in touch!

Because we like to visit our bassets at home, we don't place bassets out of the Southern California area. If you are located outside of Southern California, please see
Basset Hound Rescue Organizations for a rescue organization closer to you. Thank you for your understanding.
