I would take her in a heartbeat if I had room.. unfortunately I'm pushing my limits with my father already, as I've saved a few cats while living with him again. She sounds like a wonderful dog. I have no doubt that the bites were provoked. Dogs, especially Basenjis, can be very sensitive. If you don't understand that you're dealing with an animal that has feelings too, you're in trouble. I will keep her in my prayers. May she find the best fur-ever home!

This boy looks like he could be PB but he is injured and his tail is hanging down. He is listed as a Beagle mix but has long legs. He weighs 23 lbs and is estimated to be 2 years old. He is a stray and was turned in May 6 and his due out date is May 9. He allows handling and petting and is rated green. GREEN animals are those animals who were relaxed, easy to handle, and who showed no concerning behavior during the exam. I sent the info to a contact with BRAT last night but am not sure if she received it as I have not received a response. Could someone send the information about him to BRAT? Is there anyone in the NYC area that could take a look at him to see if he is a Basenji? I have read that the NYC Shelters do not answer their phones.

Poor thing - hope he finds an angel soon

OMG, who could do such a thing? How much money do they need to save this poor soul? I will send money if BRAT can get him out.

This is so sad… I live in NJ but I can't afford or house another dog at this time in my life. I wish he gets to live another day and someone saves him..
