Abused PBGV..

This guy is 4 years old approximately and been through allot.. I need a foster that can help him with his fear.. he has nipped once and has been tagged for euthanasia Feb 15th. in Toronto.. No one there is stepping up for this boy and I have my hands full of puppies right now.. Does anyone know anyone here or in Toronto that might be willing to work with this little guy ?

This is really a bad shot of him he looks so scruffy.. but its all I have.. here is what he'll look look after grooming..http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/KHR/buppies/PBGV.jpg

email me at bhrq@bassethoundrescuequebec.com if you can help.

I have provided you previously with a contact for this particular breed. The breeders are willing to save them from entering the rescue/shelter system. Infact, even if a legitimate breeder is not located, they have taken the responsiblity to re-home them. For once - this group can be trusted and I have nothing bad to say about them.

If you need further detail again about who to contact then let me know.

If anyone wishes to spare him from being euthanized then they should be contacted immediately.

Thanks.

Edited because 'some' people find my wording inappropriate. So let me change it. Please let me know if you require their information as I wish to HELP you.

You are absolutely right Babymomma. So sorry to ruffle feathers.

I asked PBGV Rescue in Toronto.. Susan Buttivant
Chaparral Kennels.. she said NO.. I don't know allot of folks in Toronto.. I can get him here if I have someone to take him..

what if you were to email the basset rescue site that she has posted?

BHRO won't take him either..

Well PBGV need people that understand the breed.. he is in this mess because he was in a rescue that wasn't breed specific.. and they placed him in a bad foster that abused his.. lets say aloof/stubborn behavior.. so he nipped.. now he sits on death row

Helen - just contact them right now. They may be able to help. Let me know how it goes.

Yes Helen - please contact them immediately. Also- please remove their addy from your post. Thanks

Done on both counts.. Thanks BenMax

Done on both counts.. Thanks BenMax

My pleasure - let's keep our fingers crossed. If this does not work I may have another contact in Ontario that can assist. Please keep me updated.

OK,thank's BenMax,now I have to google PVBG,I think there was one at the dog-show I watched.
No need to Google,thank's for the link!

Oh, he's a sweetie, Helen! :flirt: Thanks for posting the pics! :cloud9:

There are your pics Hazel.:D

The first 2 are at Linda's.

Way to go, angeldogs :thumbs up :highfive:

I hope you have success in turning this guy around so he can be adopted out :fingerscr :goodvibes: :pray:

Aw, he is a real cutie :lovestruck: Reminds me of my Hobo.

That terrier attitude can be a little difficult to break through but once they figure out how to please you they are always willing. I know for Hobo he is always TRYING to make the right choice...sometimes it is just stronger than him ;)

I am sure this little guy will shape up fine and be a valued family member in no time :fingerscr

thanks, angeldogs! :thumbs up

Dang, he's cute!! :cloud9:

Angeldogs that is so nice of you! Im sure in your hands this lil guy will flourish :goodvibes:

Thanks ladies.

Awe what a cutie! How is Jag taking his presense? Thanks again for stepping up! and to the Mrs! Cant wait to see more of him! :thumbs up

He was here on sunday and monday and went back to Linda's monday night.

Jag barked at him from inside his crate and he took off running.he when they did meet Jag was good and just sniffed.him and Ginger had a quick meeting and just sniffed.he gets along with the all the dogs at Linda's.

Any news on how this little guy is coming along?

Okay a trainer has stepped up to help if he stays in the Toronto area..

From time to time I check Helen's blog out, it said that this little guy had to leave Kitchener. Has a family been found for him?

Chris,I've been thinking of him too,hope he's ok and has found a home:pray:

Same here. I hope we get word.

The entry on her blog was dated April 10th, I'm pretty sure she would have found a suitable arrangement if he has already left Kitchener.

Well sadly they could not after all this time rehab the aggressiveness of this boy.. so he was continually living his life with fear and untrusting ready to bite at anytime.. a very unfair way to live to both Linda.. John and him.. so with little alternative and a VERY heavy heart .. John put him to sleep last week..

Oh Helen,not what I wanted to hear,but I am sure Linda and John did not give up easy:sad:
:rip:little boy,humans destroyed your trust beyond repair,hopefully you are now at peace:candle:

Such sad news :sad:

:rip: Little guy, nobody will ever hurt you again.

Oh Helen,not what I wanted to hear,but I am sure Linda and John did not give up easy:sad:
:rip:little boy,humans destroyed your trust beyond repair,hopefully you are now at peace:candle:

He is at peace chico.
He was with linda on a leather couch eating all he could eat liver treats.they gave him a shot to keep him relaxed well he ate and linda could say her good byes.he crossed peacefully.

It wasn't an easy decision for Helen to make and it was hard to say good bye.
