I agree, BRAT does get in pairs and ask they be adopted together plus BRAT works really hard to ensure placement are suitable and going to good homes. If your looking for a basenji savvy home them I would say "yes, getting the fanconi test will help getting them placed"…anyone not savvy or not caring to know about basenji genetic conditions won't care if theyre tested or not)
Pearl still needs a home
-
Yes, BCOSW is currently taking care of her. Nicole would have to comment any regarding BRAT involvement since she is our primary Rescue contact.
-
Yes, she is in BCOSW rescue. BRAT knows about her, and even did a craigslist posting for us.
Pearl is a really sweet girl who needs a great home.-Nicole

The foster home does help for both BRAT and BCOSW.
I have to add… I so love when I see Basenji Clubs involved in rescue. Y'all warm my heart. It is often uphill battle... have had so many Chow breeders respond that "we didn't create them, not our problem." Rottie breeders have gotten much more involved over the last 15 yrs, but in GA we have ONE breeder who routinely helps either foster or donate funds. One, out of MANY show breeders. It is disheartening. So from a non-basenji breeder, let me simply applaud you. Your club represents the best of the best... breeding the best and care takers of the breed.

I've attached an updated picture of Pearl. She is down to a healthy 22 lbs and looks like a completely different dog!
-
She looks lovely..
-
She sure does look great.
-
I updated Pearl's Petfinder page with a new picture from the BCOSW B match. Please 'like' it, post it on facebook, and keep her in mind if you come across anyone looking for an older basenji. She really is a gem, and deserves a good home.
-
Just an FYI that Pearl has found a wonderful new home.
-
Great news!
-
Yes, Awesome news..:):D
-
I'm so glad. I've been waiting to hear this news since last fall. Thanks to everyone that transported, fostered, gave medical attention and networked for her and Ruby!
-
So happy to hear Pearl has a new home - the people on this site, and the rescue groups that frequent it, are so warm-hearted and helpful when a B needs to find a new home. It's uplifting to read about these things happening with so much garbage going on "out there"
