At DaphneyLand, we are watching as Los Angeles County is working on Reopening from COVID-related shutdowns. Folks, we are LICENSED by the County of Los Angeles and that is what allows us to operate. Based on that, we are currently adopting by appointment only. Individuals must wear a mask or provide proof of vaccination.

We DO have a few outdoor volunteer projects: gazebos, a cement slab, and tree removal. If you would like to help with one of these projects, please email Basset911@aol.com or call the direct line at (661) 269-2781.

We are working toward being able to welcome guests, however we are not quite there yet!

What is DaphneyLand?

A picture is worth a thousand words. If you’re not familiar with Daphneyland or you are considering a donation or adopting a Basset, we invite you to watch the following. This is why we do what we do.

Your donation goes straight to work, helping all the dogs at Daphneyland. Thank you for caring about the animals! We are faced with a hundred hungry animals every day - not to mention vet care, etc. DaphneyLand is a 501(c)3 and your donations are tax-deductible (Thank you to our Fiscal Sponsor Golden Empire Basset Rescue EIN #32-0198167).

Start the adoption process here. We love and care about our animals so yes, the is a "process." We don't want our hounds to go from one bad situation to another, so we hope you understand. There is an application. There are vet checks and home visits. Please understand - we don't adopt to just anyone. We need to get to know you a little before we entrust you with something so precious.

There are some really interesting folks out there who are "into" Basset Hounds. Just as this is a strange and wonderful breed, they attract strange and wonderful people. What we do on this page is share with you some of the really cool folks we have come across. People we are proud to call our friends and who have helped us in our journey. We hope you enjoy meeting them as much as we did.

Yeah, we're kinda famous. Or at least the hounds are. This close to Hollywood, when people in the business suddenly decide they need a Basset Hound, it's a wonderful opportunity to showcase what we do, develop partnerships with people, and get the word out. Here, we have dedicated an entire page to all the times we have been called upon to participate in one project or another - and the results have been fantastic!
