Default Rescuing 2 bassets

I hope all goes well. We found a family giving their 2 spayed female bassets away for free, they sent me pictures of the lovely girls and I cannot believe the condition they are in. For one thing, the nails are so long they are curving toward the feet. I may not be able to keep both, but I am working with an all-breed rescue organization in the area to find a home for a foster dog I've been caring for, so hopefully these girls will find a home one way or another.
I guess it's really true that Bassets are like chips...can't have just one. They are, after all, pack dogs, right?

Awww poor things! How can people not love their Bassets properly? They have obviously been neglected by the sounds of things and those nails must make it difficult/painful for them to walk and maybe you could organise for them to be trimmed back.

I hope you can take them as three is such a nice number to have and good company for each other and for you!

Of all places, a few weeks ago I saw someone giving away a basset on Craig's List. I debated about contacting them, but by the time I made up my mind the listing was gone. I hope the dog went to a good home.

Default already taken

Someone else beat me to the bassets. They were already spayed so at least I know they weren't destined to be puppy mill moms.
