In Memory

These bassets crossed the Rainbow Bridge while they were in SBR’s Forever Foster program. Our Forever Fosters are special hounds who, due to age, medical needs, or behavioral challenges, spent their days with SBR in loving foster homes for the rest of their lives – whether that be days, months, or in many cases, years.  They received excellent medical care and knew the love and warmth of a dedicated family. We treasure and honor them all.   

When you love a dog, they become a part of you and you a part of them forever.
