Hello, I just joined a couple of days ago. I have had, for a week now, the sweetest Basset Hound. Her name is Molly and she is approx. 6 years old. I got her from a Basset Rescue in Ohio. The folks there had just received her and put her picture up.
The folks at the rescue were going to be out of town but I asked if I could get her before they left. She was in a foster home but had not been to the vet. I took her to the vet on the way home. She is heartworm positive and has tapeworms. She is in treatment for the heartworms now. My wife and I know this drill as our lab rescue dog was also heartworm positive. She is now fine and is a trained therapy dog. We are hoping for the same results with Molly.
She follows me around the house and is currently on the couch beside me curled up asleep.
Anyway, I thought I would stop in and say hi.
