Golden Empire Basset Rescue

"If you need a meeting place for your group, you are welcome to use our art gallery at the Arts Council of Kern. We currently are showing art that features either a cat and dog and it might be fun for your group. We're non-profit and the meeting place is free. So if you're interested, let me know!"

"Hi, my name is Clark. If a dog or cat needs to be transported to a rescue or forever home, our volunteer group of ARF (Animal Rescue Flights) pilots may be able to help!"

"Welcome, William. Jill Peterson and I are the gals who run Golden Empire Basset Rescue (GEBR). I have three bassets: Molly, age 9, Boz, age 5 and Charlie, age 3. All three are rescues.

"Welcome Sue! What is your experience with bassets? Had one? Have one now? More than one? Just introduce yourself. Dian Olmstead"

"I saw the bassets in the Chrsitmas parade and was glad to know we have a group in Bakersfield. Please let me know how I can help."

"Hi Jill. I saw the float in the parade last week. Bassetts have been a long time love of mine. I had a litter of them in the late 70's & had bassetts into the 80's when finally all of mine had passed. I know have pembroke welsh corgis but I still have a big place in my heart for bassets & hope to one day have another. Please let me know when you have any meetings or events going on. Thanks. Beth Ferguson"

"Welcome aboard, hope to see you at some of our future meetings and events. We will be posting upcoming events here on this site so check back often. If you are interested in another basset, get in touch with me at jpx@sbcglobal.net and we can discuss what you are looking for and what we have available. You can always be a foster home and in that way do a trial run. If it works out, you can then adopt. We are always looking for volunteers and foster homes. Welcome aboard, Jill & the hounds"

"Welcome aboard Cindy, we will be having a meeting or two to discuss future events, fundraising this time, and we are always looking for volunteers and foster familys. Welcome, Jill and the hounds"
