It is difficult to give up a dog one has had for over 4 years! I lived in an apt. in Houston and I know that unless you walk the dog frequently or have it go to doggy day care and dog parks, the dog will not get enough exercise.

If anyone is interested in an 8 year old neutered red & white male, please contact me at dcmclcm4@yahoo.com and give me a little bit of information about yourself, where you live, and what dogs you currently own and I will pass on the information. He was turned into a shelter in northern OH due to the owner's health problems. When the shelter looked at his paperwork, the breeder was contacted and she went up to get him. I met him a couple of weeks ago and he is a sweet boy but was overfed and is in the process of losing weight. He is presently living with a grouchy/growly female B and he gets along with her. He is not living at my house so I do not know if he gets along with males. If I was not having health problems, I would take him since I like the older ones.
Preference will be given to people living within a day drive of Dayton, OH.
Thanks,
Jennifer
It states that he is 9 years old but I was told he was 8 earlier today. I will have to verify his age. He is down to 37 lbs. so he has lost 5 lbs. within a month.

I hope he finds a wonderful home very, very soon.
Good for the breeder for going to get him. It's always a proud moment to hear the right thing being done. Pass on kudos to her and I hope Max finds a great home. Sorry to hear about your health, take care
What a sweet looking boy! Hope that he finds his forever home soon
He is now listed on Petfinder by B.E.A.R.-Basenji Education and Rescue in Dayton, OH.
