BHRA Store!

I have something really cool to share with you today and a great way to support BHRA! Did you know we have a store on our website? Well we do and we'd love for you to stop and buy some of our products! 100% of the proceeds go directly to support the hounds of BHRA! As the store becomes more active, we hope to add items to it.

We are currently offering BHRA T-Shirts, BHRA Bumper Stickers and Basset Hound Dish Towels.

Our very popular t-shirts come in red, blue and grey. We have a few small and medium sizes left in the pink.


Our Bumper Stickers are a GREAT way to show your support for BHRA and to tell everyone about us everywhere you go! One day I was in the Starbuck's drive through waiting for my Venti Mocha Frappachino Light, when the lady behind me honked her horn and tried to talk to me about Bassets. It was really funny because I did not understand much of what she was trying to tell me...but my bumper sticker definitely caught her attention!


These Basset Hound Hand Towels are made by a neighbor of one of our Trustees and they are just about the cutest things around! Talk about an exclusive...you can't get these bad boys anyplace but BHRA!

If you would like to support BHRA by shopping in our store, please visit our website at http://www.bhra.org/ and click on the BHRA Store link OR just click here to go straight to the store www.bhra.org/bhra_store.htm

From all of us at BHRA...thank you so very much for your support!

Foster Home Help Needed!


BHRA is in desperate need of foster homes!
If you can open up your home on a temporary basis to a wonderful hound in need, please contact our Foster Home Coordinator.
How can you resist this cute little face? And we've got an endless supply of these!
