<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On behalf of OBR I would like to thank Cathy Rudert
who networked and has located a home for two male bassets who were part of the
five that were dumped by their owner in a Montgomery Co., Ohio dog park.
Now all 4 bassets and a bloodhound have been rescued. Thank you also to
ABC who has offered to take the dogs into their care and also to the people who
transported them from Ohio to New York. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I am sorry to say that OBR is still not
in a situation to be able to take in any dogs from shelters or owner relinquish
until we can move some of our existing dogs into permanent homes. Currently we
have 5 owner relinquish who are in need as well as 9 dogs being kenneled and
over 50 in foster care. Please, if you see a basset in an Ohio Shleter and are
able to take them in contact myself, Amy Barnes or Maribeth Walker, We can
arrange to pull the dog and help with transport.</FONT></DIV>
