A single organization in a town this size means you'll want to expand your search a bit — the good news is that you're surrounded by options.

No organizations match that grade.
Because Burien has just one shelter, make C.A.R.E.S. your first call and ask to be notified when a beagle or hound-mix arrives. If nothing is available right now, Seattle is only ten miles north with three organizations to check, and Renton is even closer at seven miles. Call ahead to any shelter before you drive out, and consider putting your name on a waitlist so you don't miss the next arrival. A beagle waiting in the south Seattle suburbs is worth a short drive to bring home.
