No organizations match that grade.
When a small town has only one rescue, the strategy is to call first and ask about waitlists, then widen your net immediately. Heart of the Foothills Animal Rescue is a solid starting point, but don't stop there — Shelby and Hendersonville are both under thirty minutes away and worth a call to each. Confirm a beagle or hound-mix is actually available before you drive anywhere. The extra legwork is worth it, and when you bring home a rescued beagle from the North Carolina foothills, you'll be giving a dog a second chance while freeing up space for the next one in need.
