Week Two Woofball Winners

This week's Woofball winner was Smoke, who had the most completions. He will win a Fido Football for his efforts. And honorable mention goes to Belen for most fumbles -- she loved catching the ball, but then would drop it!

Smoke + Ball = happiness

The drawing winner this week was Moose, who's mom chose the Colts to win. The Colts were the favorites so Moose gets $10 off any Doggie Oasis service.

Congratulations, Smoke and Moose!

Monday's game will be the Caroline Panthers playing the Dallas Cowboys. Panthers are around nine point dogs right now.

This week's rescue is Las Vegas Basset Rescue:

Las Vegas Basset Rescue has been helping homeless Bassets since 1999. Basset Hounds are dropped at shelters, abandoned on the streets, and given up by their owners for various reasons. They are young, old and in-between. Some are healthy and well-socialized, just needing the basics of veterinary care. Others have been medically neglected and emotionally or physically abused. Many need all manner of veterinary care to get them into tip-top shape. They ALL need a fresh start in life with a caring family.

It is our mission to heal them and make them ready for permanent, loving homes. We have taken over 500 Bassets into rescue since we began in 1999. We strive to help each and every basset that needs a "new leash on life". The dogs are cared for in loving foster homes while they await permanent adoption. Dedicated foster families assess the dogs' personalities and needs so that they can be placed in the appropriate homes.

We are a small group of volunteers who have jobs, families, and other important commitments. No one receives a salary--all donations and funds raised go directly to pay the dogs' medical bills. We do Basset Rescue because we wish to make a difference in the lives of the breed we love.

In June of 2003 Las Vegas Basset Rescue became a 501c-3, non-profit charitable organization--making all donations tax-deductible. We also raise funds through various special events and garage sales.

If you are interested in volunteering in any way, please email us at info@rescuebassets.com Together we hope to meet the growing needs of homeless bassets in the Southern Nevada area.

Thank You,
The Volunteers of Las Vegas Basset Rescue
