Willow - Fostered in Omaha's Story

Meet Willow <br/><br/>Willow is a young puppy mill mama who likely had very little positive interaction with people before coming into rescue. Because of that, she's shy and timid, and she's looking for a patient family who understands that trust takes time — and who will celebrate all the little victories along the way.<br/><br/>Willow would do best in a home with another confident dog to help show her the ropes and reassure her that the world isn't such a scary place. Loud noises and sudden movements still frighten her, so a calm home without small children would be ideal. We're not yet sure how she feels about cats.<br/><br/>This sweet little beagle absolutely LOVES being outside. Exploring the yard, soaking up the sunshine, and lounging in the grass are some of her favorite things, so a fenced yard is required for her safety and happiness.<br/><br/>And while Willow still has moments of uncertainty, she's already making beautiful progress. She now sleeps in bed with her foster family, allows herself to be picked up, and has started snuggling on the couch. Those are huge milestones for a dog who once didn't know how to trust people.<br/><br/>Willow is house trained, though she has had a few accidents indoors as she continues adjusting. She does very well being left loose in the house when nobody is home.<br/><br/>At only 20 pounds, Willow is a petite little beagle with a gentle soul who is just beginning to discover how good life can be.<br/><br/> Willow is:<br/>• Spayed<br/>• Up to date on vaccinations<br/>• Microchipped<br/>• Heartworm negative<br/><br/>If you'd like to help Willow continue her journey and become part of her story, please fill out an application at www.bassetandbeagle.org. Her adoption fee is $400.

Basset and Beagle Rescue of the Heartland's Adoption Policy
Adoption FAQ Do you adopt to families outside of Nebraska? Basset and Beagle Rescue of the Heartland is based in Omaha, Nebraska, with a network of volunteers across Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa. We will work with families located in these states and in immediately surrounding areas. We do adoptions outside this area on a case by case basis. If you live outside of this area, please check to find a rescue close to where you live. How much do you charge to adopt? Why is it so expensive? The adoption fees range from $200-$450 depending upon the age and health of the hound. We spend significantly more on veterinary care for our bassets and beagles than we receive in the adoption fees, so the adoption fees help ensure we're able to continue helping as many animals as possible. Adopting a new puppy or dog is not a small financial commitment, and in addition to the adoption fee you should consider whether you are prepared to pay your hound’s future veterinary bills, which could potentially be hundreds to thousands of dollars. I submitted an application a few days ago. Why haven’t I heard anything yet? Basset and Beagle Rescue of the Heartland is run entirely run by volunteers. Please allow 14 days after you submit an application for a volunteer to contact you. If it has been beyond this time frame, please send us an email to BBRH@bassetandbeagle.org to ensure we received your application. I submitted an application, but I am no longer interested in adopting or adopted a different dog. Please send us an email to BBRH@bassetandbeagle.org, and we’ll remove you from our list. Do you guarantee the health of your foster dogs? Unfortunately, due to the nature of rescue, we do not always know the full background of the bassets and beagles we take in, so we cannot guarantee the health of the dogs. All dogs taken into our care have been checked by a veterinarian and we will disclose any health problems that we are aware of. Do you have a location where I can meet the bassets and beagles? All of our dogs and puppies live in foster homes in Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and Iowa. While this means we do not have a central location where you can visit them, it does allow the dogs to get used to living with a family in a home, and it allows us to have a better understanding of each dog’s needs and personality. If you are interested in meeting some of the pups we have available for adoption, we encourage you to check out their online profiles and come see us at our upcoming events listed on our Facebook page. Why is your adoption application so long? Many pets are returned to shelters and rescues because they do not fit into the adopting families’ lifestyles, or because the family is unable to meet the dog’s needs. As you can imagine, this is stressful on both the family and the dog. Our goal is to match our available bassets and beagles with the best applicant possible so the dog can have a truly “forever” home. In order to do this, we need information about our applicants so we can match the dog’s needs with the lifestyle and desires of the adopting family.
