The basics of Guardian Angel Basset Rescue are simple – GABR rescues Basset Hounds from Illinois, Eastern Missouri and Indiana that find themselves in bad situations. Once the Basset is in our possession, we provide the needed vet care - that cost is our largest expense. After he leaves the vet, our new friend goes to one of our wonderful foster homes. Without the foster homes we have, our organization would disintegrate. After the foster home evaluates the dog, our adoption coordinators help the Basset find a good home. But we do more than rescue Bassets.
GABR continues to be a major force in our lives and in the lives of the thousands of Bassets that have been rescued. GABR is also very important to the people who adopt these dogs.
Guardian Angel is also here to help when the time comes for an owner to find an answer to a pending problem. We often find ourselves helping place Bassets whose owners have to go into assisted living. With simply no way for them to keep their beloved Basset, they or their families contact GABR for help. And we are there to provide the help that they need.
