HAPPENED SO FAST WE NEVER GOT BUMMER (NOW RENAMED BOOMER) ON OUR WEBSIGHT.


A wonderful event happened 2 weeks ago here from Great Falls, Mt.   I 
got a distress call that a family was moving out of state into a new 
house and did not want to take their basset hound.   He is a senior, 
mega-esophagus, fed in his Baileys chair...."smelled and was too much 
trouble"  after having being in the family for 11 years or so.

  So, in over 15 years of operating this shelter, I have had only 2 
german shepherds with this pathology, but never a Basset and his "chair".

  I needed help.   Down with pneumonia, on restricted activity, I was at 
a loss for what was going to be my next step to save this Basset.
That is when an angel appeared to help !!!  Her name is Alexa Paul from 
Basset REscue of Puget Sound.    A rescuer from the word GO and her 
sincere love for the aged, the seniors, the dogs who needed that extra 
help.....well.......   This story ends on a happy note......and now has 
a New Beginning for this senior hound who has been underfed, treated 
humanly perhaps, but a throw a way never the less........!!!!!

.Alexa Paul, you are the essence of what it means to be a Basset REscue 
person.   Bless you and everyone that is associated with you and your 
organization.
We here at BAsset REscue of MT. continue to fundraise, our Quilt 
fundraiser now.....our Bracelets come summer, and we will always 
remember to share some of our funds to continue to help Boomer and his 
needs for very special food, etc......

Alexa. I wanted to publicaly thankyou for your generous heart and soul 
and willingness to help a fellow rescuer who for right now is down and 
out and trying to get healthy.

alexa:  THANKYOU FOR SAVING THIS BASSET HOUND.
with profound appreciation......and knowing how you have had to struggle 
after your home burned......and all you and your hubby have been 
thru...  you still reached out and answered a homeless hounds call.     
THANKYOU
