I volunteer with Suncoast Basset Rescue, which does a lot of amazing work. Bassets are often placed in kill shelters, because they are extremely hard to train and very stubborn. They get labeled "stupid" because of the stubborness, but they aren't. They just "do what they want!" LOL I've been lucky enough to have two amazing hounds in my life.
Right now I'm not fostering, but I run events in my part of the state. Suncoast is one of the largest rescues in Florida, and is the biggest basset rescue in Florida. We operate from the Georgia boarder to Key West!
