Welcome to BROOD
Since 1996, BROOD has cared for and adopted almost 3,200 dogs with injured bodies, damaged spirits, or broken hearts. Some have been abused or neglected, others left behind when owners moved or passed away. All needed our help. Our dogs will always come first. We are unsparing in our care for our droopy eared, short legged canine friends, helping them find the forever homes they deserve.

BROOD on Facebook
We love updates about our adopted BROOD hounds!I wanted to share this picture of Bebe, adopted in April from BROOD, and her new brother Bunter (formerly Bubba), adopted in May from Beagle Rescue of Southern Maryland (BRSM), Inc. Bebe is making it very clear that she was here first and has forbidden Bunter to share the couch with her, but the two senior hounds have interests in common, notably critters in the yard and (as seen here) whatever I'm eating for lunch.
