She is a beautiful soul of a woman who does amazing work and I know Charlotte is in amazing hands with her. She keeps me updated with how Charlotte is doing and even sends me pictures. I'm thankful I found this website and I'm thankful that the organization found me and Charlotte through here.

     I could not have dreamed of such a good outcome of posting our Bloodhound on Rescue Me. I am happy and sad at the same time, I finally found the perfect home for Huck. He is going to St. Louis to be trained in search and rescue. They came today and tested him to see if he had what it took to be a good tracker. He passed! He took to the guy right away, so I know he is going to be happy with him. He left on his way to his new home. They are going to share photos of his training with me. I'm going to miss him, but this is such a great opportunity for him, he may save someone's life someday.

     We had several inquiries within hours of posting, but the first one was the winner. The lady who took her was right here in town, and had two bloodhounds before. She had a place for roaming and another dog. It's always good to have a dog pal, too! It was love at first sight and we are so blessed by knowing Ladybird has the perfect forever home. And thank you, Rescue Me! I donated and asked the new owner to do the same. We didn't sell Ladybird, but did ask for a donation to be made to this web site. Happy dog days!

     Lilly was seven years old and had to stay on a runner. A family who rescues hounds came to the house yesterday to look at her. I thought she was going to lick them to death! I had never seen her take up with anyone so quickly. I thought, how in the world are they going to get her in the car? Heck! She jumped right up in there with no problems. The couple told me anytime I wanted to visit with her to give them a call. It was very difficult to see her go to a new home, but I knew she was going to have a much happier life being able to run and play. Thank you, Rescue Me, for helping find her a happy family.

Mom said Kia will get up from her nap and go sleep in the baby's bedroom when she is napping and follows her two year old son to bed when he goes to bed, like a little Nanny! The family adores her and is thrilled with her. It was a wonderful match and I am so happy for Ms. Kia. Thank you for your help, Rescue Me! -Sandy

Thank you Rescue Me for having this amazing social networking platform available to save these precious and sensitive Bloodhounds from being victims of circumstance. Shylow is our third posting and all three of our Hounds of love have found the best matched families inquiring hours after posting.

     I had a bloodhound for nine years. When she died six months ago, the hole in my heart was huge. I found your Rescue Me site and joined thinking I could help an older bloodhound find a new forever home, and fill the void in my house. I found Ruby, and the experience was more than rewarding. I have more time and patience to give Ruby than her first mommy, she is thriving and filling my life with the laughter and tons of love that only a hound dog can do. I thank you and Ruby's first mommy with more gratitude than you can imagine, and I will use Rescue Me to look for my next bloodhound (which I plan to do in a few years).

     It was a long process finding the right home for Ruby, but it was worth it. I had tons of emails interested in her, but I had to interview people until I found the right match. Ruby has a new mommy and she sent me a video already showing Ruby Doo in her new environment. I'm sorry to all who showed interest but did not get picked. Owning a Bloodhound takes a special person and you really need to know what you are getting into because they actually OWN you! Best of luck Toni and Ruby. I'm sure you will love each other. Thank you Rescue me for the site.

     This website is so awesome. My wife and I were worried about finding a home for Daisy. We visited some of the local shelters and realized she deserved better. She was a rescue and we decided to keep her until a permanent home could be found. Just the right person came along shortly after posting her on Rescue Me! We had another inquiry a few hours later. It's so hard to place dogs, particularly large breeds. I'm not sure we would have been successful without your resource. Expect a donation from us, your service is so worth it.

     My son had a 10 1/2 year old bloodhound that I posted on here and was amazed at how many responses I received. What a wonderful and supportive group of people. Duke found a wonderful person who adopted him. We met with Duke and her dog and they instantly hit it off. She updates us with pictures of him almost everyday and she has welcomed us to visit him whenever. She is such a loving and warm hearted person that I feel they were both meant for each other. I know that whatever years he has left he will have probably more love than he ever has. Thank you, Rescue Me.

     We rescued Buford from The Humane Society. Somebody had been to the pound looking at animals and saw him. They were kind enough to share his picture on Rescue Me, to give him a better chance. We drove up there the next day intending to bring him home to foster him until we could find him a home, give him a chance at life. He was about 30 pounds underweight, very talkative, hyper, floppy skin and drool everywhere, and you could tell he just wanted to get out and run. They workers said everybody always wanted to see him, but once let out couldn't control him. We did not have this issue. We brought him home the next day after he was fixed at the vet, he was covered in feces, drugged to the hilt, confused and miserable. The poor guy had to ride over two hours home. The first two months of his life with us you could tell he was confused. He would walk around and cry for no reason, he was terrified of my husband, the hose and the leash. He is covered in scars and would cry out a lot in his sleep. I don't know what he has been through, but it took a lot to break through his fears. He follows me wherever I go and loves my husband to death, he smiles constantly, has gained 30+ pounds, has many different allergies to foods, is still very talkative, has settled in with the other dogs and cat, loves the smell of rain and learned so many commands. The reason he was given up said it was because he was difficult on a leash, but with a little work he has come a long way. People adopt puppies because they are cute, but do not stop to think of what they are going to do as they grow up. Research your breed so you understand them better. It isn't fair that they get dumped off because you didn't take the time to get to know them, that shouldn't mean they deserve to die because of your lack knowledge about them, they are like having a child. To the people who gave him up, he is doing fine and couldn't be happier he has settled in with our family and we will never let him go. He literally melts whenever we put a kind hand on him, he just falls into you and closes his eyes like its the best thing in the world. We saved him a day before he was due to be put to sleep, after he spent a whole month and a half in the pound. He got sick, severely, twice from all the diseases other dogs bring in. He has been through a lot, BUT thank you for letting me have him. He has made our lives better, and sometimes I think we didn't save him. He saved us and someone let an angel in disguise go.

     I found Sammy on Rescue Me! and fell in love right away. I have five bloodhounds and am very familiar with the breed. They are stubborn, slobbery, big, clumsy and the most lovable animals I've ever owned. I own land and a old farm house, perfect for the breed. Fenced in yard and land to roam. Now with six they outnumber the two adults and two children. We picked up Sammy yesterday and so far everything has been going so well. We are introducing the hounds to him slowly since Sammy has special emotional needs, but he has warmed right up to the humans and my Cindy Lu, who is the oldest of the hounds. Our home is run by our four legged children, and I always warn people that if they do not want slobber, hair and over 100 pounds of a lap dog to welcome them, then we will go to their home. Because this house is really theirs, run by the hounds. Thank you, Rescue Me!, we love our Sammy, and I'm sure he will not be the last.

     I am happy to share that I was able to adopt Samson. The owners even drove halfway to meet me. This young male Bloodhound is very timid and it has taken time and love to draw him out of his shell. Now all five adults (extended family) living in my household are accepted members of his family. He walks well on leash, listens to directions and and is coming along nicely. I still miss my first Bloodhound, but Samson has filled a big hole in our lives.

About 45 minutes after visiting with him at a nearby field, Beau climbed in our van and looked as if to say, 'Let's go Home!' Beau has a five year old cat brother that loves to play with him! Our home is a constant playground for the cat and dog brothers! We are still trying to explain to Beau that he is not the correct size to be a lap dog, but boy does he try!

     We are moving out of the country and have been desperately searching for a home for our bloodhound. In just a few days we received several inquiries and were able to find the perfect home for her. Thank you, Rescue Me!, for helping us find a home for Lucy!

     We just found a home for Beau. He went to a home in Idaho and seemed very happy when we met them. He was our second Bloodhound, as we still have Daisy Mae. Beau was just too much for us right now. We have an older Lab that is in her last days and Daisy is just about three years old. We also have three children with one foster boy. We feel really good about Beau going to his new home. Thank you so much to Rescue Me!

     Within two weeks we were blessed to have a nice young man, Eddie, contact us about adopting Max. We emailed info and pics back and forth and within two days Max had a new forever home and will now get the attention and daily interaction he deserves. Thank you so much.

     We have been blessed by all the people that spread the word about Lady. Lady has been adopted by a wonderful couple who live on almost a half acre lot, and have a seven month old Bloodhound, as well as a few little Yorkies. They clearly love this breed, love dogs, and can give Lady the environment she so deserves. My heart is so happy, she is in the perfect home and definitely where she was meant to be. Thank you all, again. Lady has people who love her, other doggies to play with, and lots of room to roam. This is a very, very happy story.

     We rescued Roscoe when he was one year old from an abusive man that had him tied out in a junk yard. After a solid year of training, love, and medication, he became a very nice dog for my husband and I for about four years. Unfortunately, our new baby made him quite nervous. He began fighting with my other male dog, and he growled at the baby. Through Rescue Me!, we found the perfect family for Roscoe. He is now loved by his forever home. The children are older and in love with him. Mom and dad take him everywhere and he's even playing with the neighbor dog! He also is going to be trained to track scents, as his new owner has used hounds for this purpose before. We were so anxious and extremely sad to have to let him go, but I do believe things happen for a reason and everyone will be better off. Thank you for offering this service!

     This was an amazing success. Duke had had a very bad experience with our Lab, repeatedly, and we were concerned that these dogs were going to hurt each other seriously. A wonderful woman from South Carolina offered to take Duke, and we had hoped that would be his new home. Before we could take Duke to her another fight took place where the Lab attacked Duke. The bloodhound was so traumatized that we were concerned whether he could be in a home with another dog. We heard from someone local who saw Rescue Me! who wanted a bloodhound as an 'only dog'. Duke has now gone to live with him, sleeps in the bed, has his own chair, and rides on a golf cart regularly. I really believe either home would have been wonderful and think that both places would have been where I would have wanted him to live! Thanks to all the wonderful people who inquired about Duke. I really believe we could have placed him with many people and were very fortunate to have the wonderful responses. Best, JJ Sly

     I want to tell everyone thank you for all your help. I'm glad to say that both my bloodhounds went together and are on there way to Georgia. I never thought that it would happen this fast but Rescue Me's Bloodhound rescue came through for me! even though I was so heart broken when they left, I cried like a baby having to give them up! But the family who got them came in from Georgia Friday night. I met with them and their kids were great; my dogs took to them. Thanks again!!!! Lori Lindstead

     My Bloodhound June was adopted yesterday by a wonderful family with three teenage boys on a 50-acre farm. She seemed so happy when I left her yesterday. It is wonderful knowing that she has gone to a good home. Using the Rescue Me! site gave one quick inquiry that didn't go anywhere and then came the second inquiry. That second one was the charm. There actually was a third phone call, but after June had already been adopted. I tried using different media sources to find a home for June - Animal Welfare, larger no-kill shelters, and even Facebook. The only response came from the Rescue Me! site. I am so grateful.

     Through Rescue Me! we found the perfect home for Matilda. Although she is now residing in Arkansas four hours from us, I know that she is with someone who loves her. She also has other bloodhound sisters to romp and play with. I couldn't be more pleased with her new adopted family. I am very thankful I found this website; it's been a great experience!

     Where do I begin. Well this cute little puppy has been through a lot. I was trying to find a forever home for him and my mom mentions the Rescue Me! website to me. I had to find a home for him because my stepson couldn't keep him anymore. So I took the little puppy in but couldn't keep him due to my renting and my landlord only wanted one dog here. So I had a call into Southern Oregon Humane Society but my heart really didn't want to take him there. So I went online and found this website. I prayed about it because this sweet guy needed a good loving home! And wouldn't you know, within a short time I got an email from a lady in Washington saying she was interested. Yes, I was so excited! So we emailed back and forth all day. Then she mentioned could we meet tomorrow. We lived far away from each other. I live in Southern Oregon and she lives just north of Portland. So she mentioned if we could meet halfway. I said yes that would work. Wow it wasn't even 24 hours from when I posted. When we met I knew he would have a great new family! When I had to pick him up and say goodbye, I started to cry. I have never had to do this! It was hard. He wasn't even my dog. I have a heart for animals and he will never be forgotten! I want to thank you so much for making this site available for people who need to find a good loving home! Thank you so much.

     It is never easy putting one of your family members up for adoption. I couldn't be happier with Rescue Me. I loved how easy the website was to use. We found a very loving man to adopt Bella and would recommend this website to anyone in a similar position. Thanks to Rescue Me, Bella found a wonderful and loving new home. Tatiana

     We've had Goober posted on 'Rescue Me' wanting to find a good loving home and found just what we were looking for! He was a member of our family for 8 years and it was sad to see him go as we really loved him. A young couple with another dog as a playmate with acreage adopted him and we hear reports that he's sleeping with them on the bed and is enjoying being a 125 lb lap dog. Thanks 'Rescue Me', it was great experience, as we got to meet a half dozen people interested in him and got to be very selective on where he ended up.

     I received several inquiries regarding our two dogs that we put on the site. We were able to relocate them only one hour away from our home and the new owner is allowing us to visit at any time. It's a much better environment for our bloodhounds and we are very happy to have found this new family. This is a great site and it appears that those that search out dogs really care about the dogs.

     This is an amazing site to help find dogs a good home. With in minutes of posting I had people responding to get information on Bear. We just took him to his new home tonight and the post was up less than a week. We had more success and more help from this site than our local shelter and vet. Thank you so much for helping us connect Bear with his new home.

     Thank you Rescue Me. Torin was adopted by a wonderful couple yesterday. Because of this adoption site I was able to meet with the potential owners and watch them interact with Torin before deciding on the best fit for him. We found a wonderful couple that I know are going to give him all the love he deserves and needs. This site gives a dog a smooth transition from loving owner to another loving owner. Though I will miss Torin, with all my heart, it is comforting to know that he is so loved and wanted. Sincerely, Mary Reese of Overland Park, KS

     We had multiple inquiries and were able to place Daisy with a retired Police officer in Bucks County PA who has a fondness and familiarity with bloodhounds. We heard from this gentleman that Daisy is 'one of the best bloodhounds he has ever known.' Daisy has bonded with his 14 year old daughter and become fast friends with his Golden Retriever. I highly recommend using the Rescue Me! site sooner than later. This was a very happy new beginning for Daisy.

     Hi, thank you so much for this site! Beauregard was adopted today, and I made a new friend, so I didn't lose Beau, I gained a friend! He has a beautiful home with two new sisters who all got along immediately! I am so happy he has gotten the attention he needed thanks to Pat! I had Beau posted on another site and I got an email warning me and pleading that I take him off that site, because of the scams being done, they take your dog and either use him for fighting or other disgusting things, Rescue Me gave me the piece of mind I needed and I know because of Rescue Me Beau got a great home and new mom! Thanks again!
