In its use of the term hounds, Hound Rescue includes all types of hound breeds. Hound Rescue primarily assists in the rescue and placement of beagles,coonhounds (treeing walker, blue tick, redbone, black & tan), and mixes of these breeds. Hound Rescue also assists with rescue and placement of other hound breeds (e.g. basset hounds, bloodhounds, ridgebacks). However, it is less common that we become involved with these breeds due to availability of breed-specific rescues and less overbreeding of these types of hounds.
