Roscoe
Princess
Princess came to BassetCARE as an ORD, through collaboration with Henrico Humane.
Princess, and her doxie companion Willie, had to be relinquished by their owners as they
were being evicted from their home.
Princess is approximately 8 years old and is spayed. She is tri-colored and weighs about 50
pounds. She is a very sweet gentle dog – a little skittish of men, but very attached to her
female foster mom. She has a healthy appetite, does well taking her medications and is
working on perfecting her housetraining skills. She also interacts very well with her foster
canine siblings.
When she came to Henrico Humane/BassetCARE, her nails were so overgrown that they had
grown into her pads. She has since been updated on all of her shots and had surgery to
correct the nail problem.
Adoption fee: $150.00

Flash
Roscoe is a 6-year old tricolored neutered male basset weighing approximately 60 pounds. He
was owner-relinquished in Southwest Virginia, from his owners who had relocated from Florida,
and is heart worm-negative.
He is a nice boy that obviously loves a good meal (a little wide at the waist). He seems a little
insecure at times. While he loves to get up on the furniture for nighttime sleeping, he also likes
naps on the cool floor. While he’s not particularly fond of having the leash put on him, he is fine
once you have done so. He’s a bit verbal (barking) while riding in the car, but he rides well and is
fine when you get him to his destination.
He’s a clever boy and very quickly found the “hidden treats” his current foster had at his desk.
Roscoe would love nothing more than to find a home where he can feel secure and loved. Are
you the right adopter for Roscoe???
Adoption fee: $250.00

Special Needs Dog
Petey came to BassetCARE by way of the Prince George County (VA) Animal Control. This poor
little guy was horribly underweight and covered in ticks. He also had several “healed, hairless sores”
(later determined to be scars from cigarette burns) and was absolutely terrified! Upon having him
“vetted”, it was also discovered that this terribly thin little guy was also heartworm-positive. Because
he was so thin and had been so abused, he was in no condition to start the strenuous and stressful
treatment for heartworm.
Luckily, Petey found love in a wonderful foster home (with lots of canine brothers and sisters) where
he has been able to come out of his shell, learn to trust people again and discover what it’s like to
be loved and not abused. He has also been able to put on some much-needed weight.
Petey is ready to go to his forever home, which will need to be a quiet environment where he can be
started on heartworm treatment. Are you the right “forever home” for this special little guy???
Adoption fee: $100.00

Tracey & Sue
| bassetcare |
Buddy is a senior basset who was “owner-relinquished”. Both of his owners died within 6 months
of each other and surviving family could not take him. Buddy is approximately 10 years old but is
very lively for his age. He’s very sweet and lovable and loves to “chat” (and he can be quite vocal
at times!). He has obviously been very well cared for and is used to being a “house” dog - he’s
had no problems “acclimating” to the luxuries of the couch, bed, etc. He is housebroken, has a
good appetite and gets along wonderfully with his foster siblings.
Is your home the right place for this senior guy to live out the rest of his days in basset luxury?
