Our mission is to rescue, foster, and place adoptable basset hounds in loving, permanent homes. To educate the community about responsible pet ownership including health maintenance, spay/neuter, and disease prevention. Basset Buddies Rescue has been instrumental in the rescue and re-homing of more than 800 Basset Hounds throughout Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Northern Illinois. BBR is a 501(c )(3) not-for-profit organization. All donations are used expressly for the welfare of the dogs and are tax deductible.
