URGENT-FL-Tavares-8 Month Old Male Basenji/Whippet Mix-In Shelter

Basenji Rescue
  • This boy is a red & white cutie with long legs! He is in the Lake County Animal Services Shelter. It does not state how much he weighs. He is listed as not being housetrained but it is probably because he was found as a stray and the shelter cannot guarantee that he is.

    Tavares is approximately 35 miles NE of Orlando.

    Here is what the shelter states about him:

    @sharronhurlbut: Nemo, BRAT will take him, but lets see if the owner will turn him over to BRAT first. Bless your heart for the offer. He's not asking for much, so hopefully there is a good chance of that. I think he just wants the dog off his hands.

    @dcmclcm4: Since she was found as a stray, no knowledge if she has been around children. When she gets overly excited to see someone she can be mouthy since she is still young so probably no real young children. I get her to sit, direct her focus away from my hand and give her a nylabone chew toy. This usually works. She is learning how to sit with the hand signal for sit and almost has it learned. She is a fairly easy pill giver as she has not spit out a pill yet! She did a playbow today to the Bs to try to get them to play. My two middle Bs, Arnie-10 years old and Bambi-8 years old play with her. She can bark but is not overly barky. I feel she does need more socialization and I am planning on doing that this coming week when the weather is better. If you need additional information or have specific questons about her, let me know. Jennifer I will Jennifer, my friend is seriously considering it :)
