Basenji in GA Needs New Home

Basenji Rescue
  • Arrived today, a 13 month old neutered male Basenji. He's red/white, crate-trained, house-trained, well-socialized, fully vaccinated and current on heartworm preventative. His owner gave him up after she discovered she was pregnant.

    This dog is currently located in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

    Please PM me for more information.

  • UPDATE: Arrived 24 hours after the first, a SECOND Basenji. Red/white neutered male, littermate to the first and from the same owners. Behavioral problems such as seperation anxiety expected. Further info will be posted after further evaluations are made.

  • I'm getting so sick of people dumping their B's because they find out they are pregnant…UGH it enrages me.

  • Good luck with finding homes for the basenjis you have rescued. Personally I do not have room for another (in small apartment). Let us know if you have luck or not.

  • Did you find homes for these two??

  • The last I heard the two boys were still available. I think there is information on her website which you can find by looking at her profile.

  • UPDATE:
    The two boys worked back into my household the day after their arrival. The previous owners had reported a multitude of behavior and temperament problems which thankfully turned out to be extreme exaggerations. After living here 2 1/2 months, the boys left for their new home tonight. :)

  • Good Job!
    It makes rescue all worthwhile doesn't it!

    I'm sorry. I realized I wasn't clear in my post though I had all the info up on my website explaining the situation. It wasn't a rescue. It was a responsible breeder (me) taking responsibilty for two dogs that I produced.

  • Glad to know they have a new home. Were you fortunate enough to place them together?

  • Good breeders are hard to find :) BRAVO Robyn!!! :D

    June, Gypsy has been mentioned in the Breed notes in one of the UK dog papers, so hopefully you may get a response thorugh that. I don't recall how she came to be in Rescue. There can't be many Basenjis in Cyprus. Have you been able to discover her breeding?

    Taz has been in foster care through the Midwest Dog Resuce Network since he was turned over by the breeder (I believe around 8 months old). He had two sisters in foster care with him for a short time but they were adopted quickly. They were all shown on the BRAT website but were not evaluated by, or in the care of BRAT. He is such a handsome boy, I had given some serious thought to adopting him until they updated his profile to say that "he likes to be the boss". My female B absolutely has to be the boss of all other dogs (!) so I knew this combo wouldn't work out :( Here is the link to the organization caring for him: http://midwestdogrescuenetwork.com/default.aspx
