Wizard


  • Wizard was my previous basenji, almost nine when he died this past summer. I got him as a puppymill rescue - he soon developed a thyroid problem, went blind in one eye, and had a weird nervous twitch - but I loved him anyway. He loved to go walking or hiking with me and helped in the garden by catching rabbits (yes with only one eye), muskrats, and chipmunks. And he had a great way of making me feel good when I was bummed out for whatever reason.

  • What a beautiful dog and story of his rescue and life with you. I am so sorry for your loss. Dogs touch us and we remember them forever in our hearts.


  • Your Basenji was a gift, one that was treasured by you and one that won't be forgotten. I am so sorry for your loss, but thank God you had Wizard in your life. They make such an impact, and we love them all the more for their weird ways, and stubborness, we just LOVE THEM!!!!!:D

    I so sorry for your loss. It is never easy losing one of our beloved pets. If you are on Reddit, there is a subreddit where you can request portraits of your pets that have passed on. Maybe you can have one created with both of your beloved Basenjis. https://www.reddit.com/r/RainbowBridgeBabies/comments/b21pu0/how_to_request_and_about_us/

    So sorry for the loss of your family member and also that you had the extra stress of finding an alternative vet. The photos are a lovely tribute and my favourite is the one of her in the swim suit too!

    I am SO sorry to hear of the passing of your Sweet Cosmo. I know the hole she leaves in your heart, but she left knowing that she was loved as much as she could be loved and I am sure she loved you the same! I feel confident that we will be reunited with our dear Basenjis one day. Sending love and prayers for both of you.
