BROOD DOG WEB SITE INFORMATION

 

Important: This sheet must stay with the dog if the dog changes locations

 

The BROOD web site is one of the best ways for prospective adopters to get initial information about the dog.   There are two key aspects to this:

1) photographs; and, 2) biographical highlights.  Please discuss when your basset is ready to be adopted with the adoption coordinator.  When a decision is reached, send photographs and biographical information in as follows.

 

1)Photographs

Dogs are rarely adopted without quality pictures.  Pictures must comply with specific requirements so that they can be mounted on the web site.  See our guidelines for more complete specifications.

2)Biography

Please send answers to the questions below to: (web site bio’s email address).  We will summarize selected highlights for the web site based on your information.  Reminder: You are responsible for the accuracy of the information.  Aggression and/or biting must be reported to the adoption coordinator immediately.

 

Mention BROOD and the dog’s name in your message title.
