Basset hound needs home?


I need to rehome my 12 week basset hound puppy. My father was diagnosed with cancer and i need to travel back and forth from Ca to Ky for visits. I wont have time to work with her.

I'm in N. Cal. He will not return my calls.

You can often find a good home through a local rescue organization or animal shelter. Especially since he's so young, still! People line up for puppies, and since he's full-blooded (and I'm assuming has papers to show AKC registration) you won't have a problem finding a home for him, I'm sure!
You can also place a small ad in the newspaper, or simply make a flyer and bring it to several pet stores, groomers, vet offices, etc in your area to post. You may even find that an employee in one of those places would be willing to take him.
Good luck, and sorry to hear about your father!

Where are you located? This helps determine whether a person can take on your dog for you.

you simple CALL YOU BREEDER!!!!!! they will gladly take pup back, refund your money and find a decent home for your dog........ HOWEVER,, if you got a pet store/puppymill/backyard breeder dog,,, you could search BASSET HOUND RESUCE on the internet..........

Hmm, The breeder isn't returning your calls? Well, what does the contract say? Does the breeder have a right of first refusal or is there a statement that the dog has to go back to the breeder in such a case? If there is, I suggest that you send 2 copies of a letter to the breeder stating why you have to return the dog. You may not get a refund, though. Send one copy certified to show that you attempted to contact the breeder. If you get no response than try and rehome the dog yourself. Being that it is a 12 week old puppy you might want to put an ad in a paper or on PuppyFind.com. Another place you can put a free ad is on Craigslist (puppyfind ads are not free). Craigslist will only allow you to ask a normal adoption fee though. You should have no problem rehoming a 12 week old Basset, especially in California. There is a shortage of smaller dogs in California right now because of horrible anti dog legislation being promoted by the Animal Rightists. In fact it is currently estimated that 10,000 puppies are being smuggled into California across the San Diego border to meet the demand because of the small dog puppy shortage out there.

you said you are driving back and forth to kentucky, i am in ky and would love a basset puppy. if you want, contact me and we can work something out. thanks
