About House of Puddles, Inc.

House of Puddles is a retirement home for homeless basset hounds, operated by Marilyn Brazzle. Since 2002, Marilyn has provided a home for 40 senior or special needs hounds, accepted at the request or referral of basset hound rescue organizations. The seniors at HOP average about 12 years in age. Their health issues include blindness, deafness, diabetes, cancer, incontinence, arthritis and severe skin allergies. HOP does not try to adopt dogs out to other homes because the dogs are generally considered to be unadoptable due to their age or special needs.
