ROBIN
ROBIN

I saw Robin's picture on the TSBHR website and couldn't wait to meet her at Septemberfest. We had just sent our foster dog off to her new home and I was hoping that Robin could be our next foster - if she didn't get adopted at Septemberfest. At the end of the event, we learned that there would be an application coming in for Robin, so we decided to foster her short-term rather than have her go back to the kennel. No application ever came in and it didn't take long for us to fall in love with this spunky senior hound. She is my cuddler and makes little squeaky sounds to talk to me. I can't imagine life without her!


BUTTERCUP
BUTTERCUP

We adopted our sweet girl on Valentine's day and what a love she is! She was apprehensive for the first day or so but with lots of love and attention she warmed right up and quickly became one of us. She has brought a love like no other to our our family. She is my daughter's BFF, those are her words! We look forward to many years shared with our new love.


SHADOW
SHADOW

I hesitated far too long to adopt a dog. It was Christmas of 2013 and my 8 year old daughter reminded me daily that all she wanted was a dog for Christmas - no other gifts. I grew up with dogs and finally decided that I couldn't deny her anymore. A dear friend showed me a photo of a dog on the Tri-State Basset webpage. I got the call on Christmas Eve that he would be ours. Shadow is the center of our family, a mellow dog who likes to go for walks but just wants to be loved. He sleeps in bed with my daughter, she doesn't have nightmares any more and she sleeps through the night. We have already taken him on vacation with us - he loves to run in the sand. We are lucky to have him and he has changed our lives. This was the best thing I could have done for my daughter. Thank you Tri-State Basset Rescue for this great addition to our family. Anyone who is hesitating, please don't. Remember that you will have more unconditional love than you could ever ask for. I'm grateful for the reminder of this and we are so grateful for our Shadow.


JACKSON

We adopted Boo (aka Jackson) in January 2014. He just graduated from Princeton Dog Training Club Beginner I Class! He enjoyed the class especially the one-on-one time with his Dad. He goes for a short walk every night, loves his doggy brothers and kisses the 2 cats! Here is a picture of Boo with his diploma and a picture of Boo relaxing in the bay window. He is a great addition to our family and there is nothing in the world like a Basset to make a house a home!

BUTTER BEAN
BUTTER BEAN "BEN"

Ben (formerly Butter Bean) is the dog we dreamed of and so much more. What a pleasure you all are and we will never forget the honesty and kindness you showed us. Ben is fine and all settled in. He really is a snuggler and quite a lap dog. Thank you again.
