Welcome to BROOD
Since 1996, BROOD has cared for and found homes for over 3,300 basset hounds and basset mixes. Some have been abused or neglected, others needed rescue when owners moved or passed away or could no longer care for their hounds. We are now in our 26th year of rescue.

Looking for a foster home for sweet Mildred and beagle-basset mix. She needs a place where she can sound off in the usual beagle way. So preferably where neighbors won't mind. She is partially house trained so will need to be watched and training reinforced. Contact foster@brood-va.org for more info

A feel good story of caring people saving a lost dog.
A caving project became a rescue mission after a dog was found 500 feet down
n.pr
What was supposed to be a caving excursion in Missouri turned into a rescue mission after a dog was found curled up and malnourished about 500 feet into the cave system.
