Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...The Aryan MolossusOnce a Warrior, Today a Loyal Companion and a Family-Protector Should you ever decide that you need a big dog, with an imposing posture, which can look threatening and majestic at the same time, the Aryan Molossus is definitely one breed that you must take into consideration. The Armant The Egyptian Dog with a Lot of Love to Give To some of you, the Armant is better known as the “Egyptian Sheepdog” and, just as the name suggests it, it was bred to be a herding dog. However, in ancient times, it was used mostly as a guard dog. This breed is originally from Egypt and named after the town of Armant. Its loyalty and agility are the two main characteristics which make this dog special. The Atlas Terrier The Small Dog With a Massive Dose of Energy At a glimpse, the Atlas Terrier can be easily mistaken with the Jack Russell Terrier. However, there are some differences that may help you tell these two cousins apart. Before deciding to buy or adopt a dog of this breed, there are some things that you have to take into consideration. Unfortunately, this is quite a rare breed of dogs in our days. Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie It Is Impossible Not to Love Them Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie are the smallest dogs in the Anglos-Francais category. However, the name „Petite”, meaning „small”, is not at all referring to the size of the dogs, but to the game they are after. Even if they've been around since the 16th century, today, these dogs are not easy to find. So if you have decided to adopt one, you can be sure that you will have a unique pet. |

Ohio Basset Rescue (OBR) is an all volunteer organization – dedicated to helping the homeless hounds of Ohio Our volunteer network spans to the four corners of Ohio. Our funds come solely through donations and fundraisers. OBR does not have a shelter of its own. Our “shelter” exists through our foster families that open their hearts and homes to a hound in need. There are hounds that come to OBR from all walks of life, whether it is: on death row at a county pound, dumped at the humane society because their former owner was moving, or the baby suddenly developed mysterious allergies that can’t be explained; left wandering alone in the middle of the woods, along a country road, or dodging traffic on the freeway. Once these homeless hounds are with OBR, the dog is then given all necessary medical attention – all vaccinations (including bordatella, rabies & distemper series combination); heartworm test – monthly preventative is given if the dog tests negative, treatment for the disease is given if they test positive; spay/neuter – to prevent more hounds from facing as uncertain of a future; and any other needed medical treatment. These hounds are then placed in foster care, so long as there is a foster home open and ready to take them in Very often, any individual hound is not the only homeless hound in their foster home. Many OBR foster homes often have two to three hounds rotating on a continual basis. OBR foster homes and their families have very big hearts and are often working very hard, day after day – to provide a sort of finishing school for homeless hounds. Whether it is dinnertime manners, proper behavior techniques, or social housebreaking skills – OBR foster homes do it all. These homeless hounds remain in foster care or in a boarding kennel (if a foster home is unavailable) until a forever home can be found for them. We are constantly talking to and screening potential families and homes. Making the match of a homeless hound with their own forever home is the most heartfelt part of what we do. This brief explanation only begins to provide a glimpse into what OBR is truly all about. There are the nights that phone calls come in that a lost hound with an OBR tag has been found and a frantic search begins to track down the owner. There are the weeks when phone calls come in day after day with owner relinquish calls with every excuse being given as to why they must get rid of their beloved family member. There are the quiet weeks, although a rarity. Then the calm before the storm when we receive up to eight or more calls from animal shelters in different corners of Ohio that have hounds that need to be rescued. A scramble then begins to arrange for transportation to safety for these homeless hounds and this is only the beginning for them.
