Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page.

My name is Madden Marie and on June 8, 2008 I will be celebrating my 1 year Gotcha day.  That means that on June 8th of last year Golden Gate Basset Rescue helped me to find my new forever home!!  My first family moved and were unable to take me with them so my new family took me in as thier foster dog.  However, after only a couple of hours, my new dad told me I could stay if I wanted to and they changed my name (thank doG!!!).  Now I go hiking and to the beach and I'm learning how to play with toys and other dogs, too!!  BOY AM I A LUCKY GIRL!!!

A lot bassets are in the same boat I was in last year and need someone to call thier own and thier own beds to sleep in!!  The wonderful people at Golden Gate Basset Rescue work super hard at making sure the bassets in their care are healthy and then find the right family for each dog!!  Sometimes this takes a LOT of money 'cuz some bassets come to them with heartworms, or bad teeth or yucky lumps!!

That's where you come in... if you sponsor me and help me to become the queen of next year's 4th of July parade, all that money will go help the sick hounds GGBR are taking care of!!  It's win-win!!  GGBR gets to help more bassets and I get to try and fill the shoes of Forever Queen Sadie Jean who passed away last year before I came to live with my new family!!
