I would say that if one had planned to get a pup before this all occurred, then perhaps it would be good timing, as it would give one the opportunity of spending more time with the pup in the crucial early days. Of course things will change and the routine will be different, but there are ways to ease into the new schedule so it isn't an abrupt shift from always being there to suddenly being absent.
These 2 have been for sale for a very long time, just noticed they were relisted

CoBasenji Rescue is overflowing with basenjis right now, so I'm not sure there's a foster home spot available. Of course somehow Peggy manages to make it all work.
-
This lady has basenjis again. I contacted her once when I first started looking for a basenji and was very very shady.
-
If she is breeding this year and has pups on the ground then one should not buy from her.

I believe these are hers too that are very recent. http://dogs.oodle.com/view/basenji-puppies-male-and-female-red-and-brindle/2817556432-canon-city-co/

Sadly I believe Co Basenji rescue is familiar with this person.
-
I don't live neat CO but would put up the 200$ if someone could take them… Just a thought
-
Chealsie, Would you contact Brat and make that offer?
-
i just clicked on that first link and it was no longer there.
also, please think long and hard before purchasing a dog from a mass producer so that they can make room for more dogs. This is not someone getting out of the puppy business. Just someone's who could not move their "merchandise" in a timely manner in a bad economy. I know your heart is in the right place.

I agree, as they say do not enable them….. the only way they will stop is if they can't sell the pups and it no longer is a "cash crop"
-
At that price, they aren't making a profit and they keep the dogs from being sold for more puppy mill breeding. I think $200 is acceptable.
-
I so hope they go to a good home. Sigh.

I absoloutely agree with not enabling, it's just 200$ isn't a lot to enrich two lives. It's hard for me to sometimes see these poor dogs when I spoil Oakley rotten as he is the only thing in my life (no kids). I sometimes spend more than that on Oak in a day…I will instead make a donation to BRAT, as has been my Christmas wish from those giving me gifts. At least this way I will feel as though I'm contributing to something
