  • I am a new B owner of about 2 years. His name is Dash and he is like another child to us. We also have 2 cats, a beagle and fish. Oh yea, and I have a 6 yr old son. My B is as spoiled as they come. I work at Battelle Memorial Institute in Columbus Ohio in the Business office. Our lives pretty much revolve around our family. We do find time to travel and try to do it as often as possible.
    I have signed up to help transport any B's for BRAT as well as some other things. I can't really think of anything else. i will have to put up some pics.

  • Welcome to the forum and koodos to you for being involved and helping out BRAT. It's funny how you mentioned your son last. Don't worry, we seem to mention our daughter secondary to our B. We recently welcomed him into our family and are still in that look at my dog's miliion pics and videos on the cell phone phase.

  • Welcome! How did you come across your B? Or am I being too nosey? Just wondering since you're involved in BRAT!

  • Funny you should ask. I think I sparked some debate on another thread. Dash is from Petland.

    I actually heard about BRAT through a co-worker. She said she had helped in the past so we looked it up. After having Dash we learned what a unique breed he was and wanted to help those dogs who the owners did not bargain for such an independent dog. Among other things….

  • Hello and welcome to the forum. Can't wait to see pics of Dash, and the rest of the family!!! I do home visits for BRAT. Would love to foster one, but space will not allow it at this time.

    Welcome, from another Ohioan. We are on the north side of columbus and have 1 r/w boy. We have occasionaly taken him to the Westerville dog park but his behavior has not be great lately. We have cut back. We also help BRAT transport and foster. Great to have more B's in Ohio. I see so few of them in Columbus.

    Hi Kiro, Welcome our neck of the woods. I live just a bit past Emmittsburg in PA so I'm not too far. The Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club meets at the Carroll County Agricultural Center right there in Westminster. Our next meeting is 1 June and there will also be a spring fun match that same day. It starts at 0900. There is a Yahoo group for the club that has info about the event. It's fun and games. It's really neat to see so many basenjis in one place. Hope you can make it. It's a nice club to belong to. Karen

    @WriggleysMom: We've always had rescues and I feel like I've missed out on puppy antics, so I'm debating. Toby doesn't baroo or wag his tail and I really miss being met at the door with a welcome baroo and a tail trying to wag itself off!! I had a puppy and was getting the urge for another but now we have a 7-mo old foster and I can't take my eyes off her. I remembered I really did not miss that!

    Dave hello, I also am new to this site. I had my frist Basenji for sixteen years and lost her last year. I could only go for about a month before getting my next Basenji. I really love this breed I have two now. Good luck in your search for your next Basenji.
