Foundation News & Events

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: In the past, several Basset Hound art collections have been donated to the Foundation for fundraising efforts. Starting in 2024, due to storage and logistic difficulties, we are NO LONGER accepting full or partial collections. We will consider single items, and will accept them if they are of the quality that could be auctioned to the public for fundraising. If you have a single fine art item or piece of special Basset Hound-themed jewelry that might fall into that category, please contact our Treasurer, Brian Pechtold, at brianbhca@sbcglobal.net for evaluation.
