URGENT - Basenji Mix in Grant Prairie, TX

Basenji Rescue
  • With only an ID#, this sweet boy is currently at risk of EU due, only, to the extreme overcrowding at the shelter he is in. He is heartworm negative, estimated to be close to one year old and weighs in around 30#s. He was visited by a BRAT volunteer and is reported to be very sweet and friendly by both the volunteer and the Grand Prairie Shelter Staff. There is just not room at the Inn to insure his safety for very long. This boy in appearance is very Basenji like and he has only been heard to let out short woof type barks similar to a Basenji (if you have ever heard one bark) so it seems that he will be a quiet boy. When visited he appears to be very playful, he clumsily (the puppy in him) ran up and down the aisle checking out all the other dogs, wagging his loosely curled tail the whole time. He just wants someone to play with and a family to love him.

    If you are a family that has a place in your heart and home for this cutie you will be saving the life of a great companion.
    If you can adopt this sweetie or take him into a safe rescue please contact Lauren ASAP: lsossi@gptx.org

  • What a cute young boy and goofy too! I have two of those PBs that can bark/woof so it is not just the mixes. Grand Prairie is a suburb of Dallas/Ft. Worth. Sometimes transport can be arranged from many of the TX shelters.

    I guess for some people he is too large for a Chi and not quite a Basenji-too small as he weighs 15 lbs. He is estimated to be 5 years old. If you know someone who might be interested in him or a rescue group that could take him, please forward the information. This boy is listed on Craigslist as urgent and here is his information and the link: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/pet/2772364788.html "CODY" needs a second chance. He is a male, Chihuahua / Basenji Mix. He has been at the Van Nuys shelter since OCTOBER 15, 2011. Because "CODY" has been at the shelter so long he is running out of time. Due to the shelter running over capacity he will be euthanized soon if he does not get adopted. Please if you are looking for a dog consider adopting "CODY" and giving him a second chance. He is at the East Valley Shelter in Van Nuys. To see a photo and get additional information please see the link below. http://www.petharbor.com/pet.asp?uaid=LACT.A1257520 Jennifer

    Tegs, Sorry that it took me a while to reply. I would love to trade pics with you. Everyday that passes, I am reminded of the Basenji Code. She is a bolter, I am happy that we have a storm door to help.
  • Can it be a Basenji or mix (urgent in OH kill shelter).)
