We have a Tractive Tracker which was purchased in September 2023 with a year subscription worth £84.00.  This was purchased for Scout however her new Rescue didn't want to keep it.  We are looking for a new home for a donation for the Tracker.  We are able to transfer the ownership.  If you are interested in taking this over please email They are fab things for those hounds that like to take themselves off for an adventure, or working dogs that you want to keep an eye on when they are out of sight.  Obviously we do not believe dogs should be off lead without recall, bu ..read more

Dog Buggy

People may think that Dog Buggy's are silly and making dogs lazy, but they can be used for the benefit of dogs for a variety of reasons. Think of it this way, if you have a (human) toddler and you want to go to the park for them to play, you push them there in a buggy, they get out, blow off some steam, and then you push them home again. Walking them to the park means they're tired when they get there, don't enjoy their play, then really tired (and normally then grumpy) walking back. Hounds are no different! Take Willow for instance. Willow has recently been diagnosed with an illness which has ..read more

Please welcome this lovely little girl Brenwyn into the BRNGB family. She joined us on the 13th April.  She's a tiny little 18mths old, she is a darling and has had a really poor start in life due to her poor breeding. Her owner has been in contact with us for a while as Brenwyn has been undergoing tests as she has struggled to maintain weight.  Brenwyn has been diagnosed with mild hip dysplasia, IBS and gastritis. She is now on a special diet of hydrolysed kibble and things are settling down which is wonderful news. Sadly her owner couldn't continue to care for Brenwyn, wh ..read more

This weeks Wonderful Wednesday is..................... Hey there, I'm Harley, but you probably know me better as the hooligan extraordinaire.  I joined the BRNGB family in September 2021, as a foster, and then my foster family adopted me! Life after adoption? It's been a blast! I live with my mummy, daddy, two sisters (Dixie and Tilly), and two brothers (Milo and Domino).  Our house is like a revolving door for doggy visitors, thanks to our foster family status. It's always a bit wild, but hey, I get to make tons of new friends and, let's be real, the whole world revolves around me ..read more

Happy gotcha day for the 7th April Benny, 6 years since we adopted you from BRNGB, you were first seen when we helped as a volunteer transporter from Peterborough up to Wetherby where we met Christine your foster mum to be.  We instantly knew we had to adopt you, you were so loving and friendly and managed to eat a whole packet of M&S chicken fillets as we were told you were anxious and stressed so we were trying hard to make you feel relaxed.  On collection day you were pleased to meet our other bassets Douglas and Bruno and settled in well.  Although at times you were ..read more

After months and months of searching for Scout's forever home (10 months!); after three foster homes; after countless blogs on our website we are so pleased to announce that Scout has moved to a new Rescue who will be in a better position than us to help her. We know that we cannot help Scout any further, we cannot reach the audience she needs to find her forever home, despite all the shares and comments she had, which we thank you for. Scout has been accepted to Mrs Murray's Dog and Cat Home who are better equipped to assist her. We will still be updating about Scout's journey when we ar ..read more

OK ladies and Gents, hold on to your hearts and welcome Henry into the BRNGB family. Henry will be 4 this summer, and is currently in emergency foster.

Henry spent some time home alone with family popping into him, whilst the decision was made that he joined our family. Henry will be moving to his foster this weekend to undergo his assessment. Henry is proving to be a wonderful boy, considering he's had a scary few weeks he has a loving nature, he's showing no separation issues, isn't fazed by cats, i ..read more

If you have been following their story, you will recall that both Flash and Scout joined the BRNGB family last year, Flash in December and Scout in June.  Both amazing dogs, both brought so much joy to their foster families, both mixed breed hounds.  We made the heart breaking decision that we were not the right rescue for them, and found two other rescues who were better equipped to help these wonderful hounds find their forever homes.  The amazing folks at Mrs Murray's Cat and Dog Home have found Scout her forever home! We are so so happy for this lovely girl, who has had ..read more
