This page is dedicated to all the Beagles and Hounds that have gone to the Rainbow Bridge.
     
Beloved daughter of Ann and Koko, sister of Gertie and Peaches.  Went to the Bridge on August 1, 2004.  Bailey's family generously sponsored Holly in her memory.  Koko is now President of HBHR.

Known to his family as the "Best Dog in the World", went to the Bridge on march 2, 2003 after a battle with cancer.  Zak's family has sponsored several rescue beagles in his memory.

Went to the Bridge in 1997 after a battle with Cancer.  She is sorely missed by her mom Carol, who considers Mandy her favorite dog.  Carol now fosters for her local Humane Society in Mandy's honor.

Her time with us was short, but we will never forget her.  Sassy went to the Bridge on August 5, 2004. 
Always in our hearts.

Snoopy went to the bridge on October 3, 2006.
He is greatly missed by his human family and his best buddy, Belle Beagle.

Angie went to the Bridge on January 9, 2007. She was a joyful bundle of energy and she especially loved playing with her toys, getting lots of hugs, going for long walks, and taking snuggly naps. We miss her so much and we will forever treasure our memories of all the love and happiness she shared with us. See you at the Bridge, sweet girl.

You were our sweet girl. We love you Zoe.

Lisa, Jim and Luke


Roscoe went to the Bridge on January 15, 2008 . Roscoe was the only other male in the house besides his human Dad. Roscoe was Daddy’s “Boy” in a home of 5 females and 1 female Beagle. Roscoe will be truly missed. Roscoe was adopted by the Gordon family in 2003 from the Houston Beagle & Hound Rescue. Roscoe will be missed by his buddy and companion Lady Katherine , a 6 year old Beagle. Roscoe’s soul will forever live in his family’s hearts and in their home. Roscoe was a joy, bundle of energy and he especially loved chewing rawhides, getting lots of hugs, and taking naps. We will miss the times that he sneaks items out of his human Mom’s purse and hides them in the backyard. We would like to also thank those at Houston Beagle & Hound Rescue for rescuing this precious boy and giving us the wonderful and unforgettable memories. Rest in peace and you will be truly missed. We love you Roscoe.

The Gordon Family -  Pearland , Texas


We sure miss you sweet Belle. You will always have a special place in our hearts and memories.

My sweet Sugar, you came to us with almost no hair due to mange. You tolerated the treatments and grew back a beautiful soft coat. Then came the lymphoma that quickly took you over the Rainbow Bridge in December of 2008. The few short months we had together were the best. You followed me everywhere, always by my side, a real trooper through it all. I miss you and hope there is milk for you in heaven.

-Sue


After 5 wonderful years with Suzy, she has passed on. Her companionship and love over the last five years has been more than I could have ever expected or wanted from a 12 year old rescue. Thank you for allowing her to live

Thank you again, with all my heart, and Suzy's.

Willie went to the bridge on 11/13/08 after losing her battle with cancer. She was our first beagle and was a 13-inch bundle of joyful energy. After 13 years, she never lost her love of life. She insisted on a game of keep away catch and a game of hide the dolly the afternoon before she died. After having Willie in our lives, Rich and I can not imagine life without a beagle or 3 in the house! Our help with foster dogs is our tribute to the memory of our beloved Willie.

These sweet senior girls were both adopted by the founder of HBHR when they were already 8 years old. Bessy joined the family in 1996. At that time, Sandra did not know how many beagles and other dogs were routinely dumped in shelters or even along the road.

After a chance meeting with a nice vet tech who rescued senior dogs, Bessy found a new home and unknowingly started a chain of events that changed the lives of over 750 abandoned beagles! The reality of the pet overpopulation tragedy became all too apparent when the family was seeking a second senior beagle to adopt. Bonnie came to Houston from Seattle Beagle Rescue in 1999.

The beagle girls later shared their home with hundreds of rescued foster beagles as HBHR became a reality thanks to the inspiration of these two wonderful senior beagles and to so many dedicated volunteers and adopters!

Bessy crossed the bridge on September 10, 2001 and Bonnie joined her on October 11, 2006.


Beloved daughter of Koko and Ann, and
sister of Bailey.  Went to the Bridge on
April 24, 2004.  Aggie was a trooper who
ruled the roost for 18 years. 
Koko and Ann adopted Gertie and Charley
(aka Peaches) to help Bailey deal with
Aggie's loss.

Kirby went to the bridge on April 13, 2006.
God gave us seventeen wonderful years to love each other. Your soul will forever live in our hearts and in our home. Your spirit lives on through Bella Beagle. I love and miss you very much. You were the best!

Shelby went to the bridge on December 1, 2006 after a long battle with cancer.   Her Human family, ther Gerbers said "She is a memory now but one that will always be remembered with laughter and joy. Thank you God for putting her in our lives. Meet you at the Bridge, Shelby."

"Honorary Beagle"
Penelope Fay, the “most beautiful dog in the world”, lost a valiant fight with cancer on Wednesday, November 28th. She helped foster her first coonhound in April 2001 and her first beagle in August 2001.
Penelope was a therapy dog for Caring Critters for several years until her cancer diagnosis last year. Her family misses her very, very much.


He was a good boy for the short time I had him and I miss him already. It will be awfully quiet around here without him spinning in circles and making squeaking noises when I come home from work.

Penny, beautiful 15-year-old beagle who was a special honorary "foster mom" for many rescued beagles, went to the Rainbow Bridge on March 17, 2009. She will be waiting there for her beloved owner, Ron, who misses her so much

"Lazy" Daisy Ribbe went to the bridge August 11, 2009 after having surgery that morning. She was with us for 9 years and worked her way into our hearts. She could bark to the tune of 'Who let the dogs out', loved to watch a good movie on Sunday mornings with her Dad, and ate 3 meals a day: cereal from Carly, lunch leftovers from Dad, and ice cream from Mom. We will miss her howling and overexcitement everytime we walk through the door of our home.

We love you, Daisy.

Ladybird went to the Rainbow Bridge on 3-12-10. This sweet senior beagle was rescued while running around the Superdome following Hurricane Katrina, nearly starved to death. After spending months in the animal claim center in Baton Rouge she came to HBHR with heartworms and not spayed, at the approximate age of 11 or 12. She made it through all the vetting, but was not gaining weight. Turns out that during her fight to live in New Orleans she had eaten anything she could get a hold of, including surgical gauze, shoestrings, a t-shirt and a leash! After her intestines were cleared out, she began to thrive at her foster home. Luckily for Ladybird, due to all she had endured the foster family decided she deserved to stay with them as a permanent family member. She never did learn that a belt, spatula, or large spoon was not going to harm her, but she was a lover and a loyal companion, sitting by her foster dad's side for hours as he worked on his computer. Ladybird was a fighter right to the end, even with cancer eating away at her nose and eye. Her family will always remember her as MOMMY DOG.
