Basenji Rescue

  • I want to thank Jason for doing the driving for his little b that needed help.
    It takes a village.


  • Sorry about your weekend but a HUGH THANK YOU for all you do each and every day. So nice to know that they get another chance at life and a home. I also say thank you to all of you that help.

  • Rita Jean, I am 58 and it took me 20 yrs to find out that helping dogs, was my "thing".
    It really is something I want to do full time when I retire.
    If I can, that is my goal.
    Thanks for the nice note


  • We use to help the akita resuce from cleaning to walking to bathing to feeding what ever they needed we did it for years. We have taken in a few off the street over years. Rot that was so sweet, ****er she was a love, Pom we still have my sons dog he is a love but barks and barks no stopping him but o well. We kept a shibu for little over a month and I do not know how many cats we had and placed in homes. I love cats but dogs are my cup tea I wish we lived were I could have any and all that want.

    Thanks to you again Sharon and people out there like you maybe some day I can do more.

  • Rita Jean, thank you for helping the animals you did. We all do what we can. This forum has just the very best folks on it!


  • Sharon, I wouldn't have my precious little Hunter if it weren't for BRAT. Thanks for helping my b find me! I hope you can find Tally a new forever home soon. She looks like a sweetheart!:p

    He's fine with cats. Sharron tested him with a cat he didn't know and he went up and sniffed, was curious, no chasing pulling or screaming about the fluffy thing =)

  • Houston

    He is so pretty, I just love his color..he would make a college girl very happy..


  • He is a very sweet gentle boy. He needs a house that has a young b for him to play with and owners who are very kind.
    Its interesting…the person who placed him said he was a "blue" basenji...well, with his coloration, he does look "blueish" in some lights.
    But just a very sweet boy.
    Andrea is a jewel to be fostering him.


  • He looks like he has a great personality.:)

    I love his "wink" too! He will find a special forever home quickly!

    Thanks for the pics!


  • He is just a joy! I wanted to take him home myself! What a sweet boy. He is getting fixed on fri, and I will let you know when we have found a home for him.
    I took him 200 miles in the car and he was crated…not one peep...
    Someone will hit the jackpot with him!

    Our Mickey gets pretty nippy when excited, too, and it was much more of a problem when he had those crazy sharp puppy teeth, but now at 1 yr old he responds pretty quickly to "gentle" and "kisses", "no bite" prompts. But when he gets too worked up I have to just walk away because his first instinct is to mouth & he doesn't seem to know his own strength. Someone mentioned winter activities - I would strongly suggest looking into getting a Varsity Ball (if you google it it should come up) - they are indestructible and big! Def for outdoor only. My guy likes to roll his around and try to stand on it - it's pretty funny. And it's almost the only time you'll hear him growl and bark - he gets so worked up with it that I have to put it away sometimes or else the neighbors will think he's vicious (he sounds it when playing with this thing!). BUT he comes in from outside panting and exhausted, so it's a nice alternative for him. I would caution, though, that bc the ball is really hard, he's knocked it into our rain spouts and caused them to fall down. So just be careful if you have anything outside that could get damaged.

    Cody follows me when I initially go into another room, but if I'm not holding food or a toy, doing something he finds interesting, or if something else catches his attention, then he leaves. He used to be a complete and utter velcro dog. He wouldn't leave my side at all, and there were a few times when I almost stepped on him or tripped over him. I agree though, I don't think it is just Bs. Moe, our mix, does the same thing. I just think they are nosy.
