Basenji puppy in Macon, GA

Basenji Rescue

  • She is such a beautiful little pup


  • Go on Vicki, you know you want to,lol
    I wish it was easier to find out about rescues in England


  • She is such a pretty dog! We'd love to know what her personality is like…has anyone gone and adopted this pup yet??


  • I just wanted to say that, as a past rescue person, fast placements do not neccesarily equate good placements. I personally prefer it when a rescue group isn't in a rush to rehome a dog. When they take their time to find just the right match for the dog, the rehoming is statistically more successful. In ther words, don't fret. The right home will come along for her when it is meant to. :)


  • One thing that I have learned in life is to accept that things are not all black or all white. Life is shades of gray and just because someone sees a different shade of gray than you do, it doesn't mean their shade is right or wrong, its just different. ~ Robyn Dubbert

    I like it!

    I agree, that the rescue group is doing a fine job finding the right home. I'm not rushing to apply, but I'm so tempted. My most recent three rescues have come a long way and are finally content. For the past year, I've spent a good portion of my time helping my Basenji rescues learn to overcome their quirks, fears, and issues. Life is good right now.

    My three older dogs have been marvelous through all of this Basenji fever I've had, and I love them for it.


  • I did it! Application sent today.

    Please sign me up for Basenji Anonymous - I'm addicted. :D


  • Yea!!!!!!!!!


  • Vicki and all others who are interested - here is something for you to consider for Heartworm preventative.

    http://www.heartwormprevention.com/

    This guy sells a bottle of diluted Ivermect (what we used to use before heartworm pills) and the measuring dropper - for $25.00 I can do all my dogs for almost 2 years.

    That would be a bit better I think. It's safe - I've used it for years - or actually mixed my own version of this - but this is more convenient.


  • Thank you for information on heartworm prevention. That will save money.

    Vicki your crazy but you got a large heart.

    Great to hear Vicki, you have a huge heart and I know there is a special place for you upstairs..angel you.

    Dmcarty, thanks for the info on the heartworm preventative. I will have to look into it..I have enough heartguard to last me through feb-10, but after that, I am game…LOL


  • Vicki, you have the best name and B's keep you young! :D:D

    Good luck!!!!!!


  • Why, Vicki, I love your name, too!!! ;)

    Diane - what about whipworm and other parasites that some heartworm meds keep under control? What do you use?

    Anyone know if/how many of these puppies might be around still? The website listed 6 and shows 1 still available. I also read somewhere (another thread or forum, can't remember) that there may have been 2 litters for a total of ~12 puppies, but the site has only listed 6. Would love to hear from anyone who may have taken the time to visit the puppies or might have more info. We've reached out directly as well and are awaiting further info. EDIT: Nevermind, we found that the CO rescue isn't willing to send puppies this far east. We have found a pup elsewhere from a breeder.

    Those injuries were pretty horrific. It is heartbreaking to think of the pain the dog must have gone through but it is heartwarming to see how he has adjusted.

    He did look like he had short legs but I thought his body was long for a Rat Terrier. I am so used to them having a docked tail and much more white on the body. I thought he may be a poorly bred Basenji. Mansfield is not too far away from the Amish area. I wonder if he barks much! Jennifer

    Robyn, THANK YOU for the update! Do you have any leads on the needed kennel? I have several friends near Atlanta that may be able to help out… another thought: do you think the Atlanta news station would carry the story? ;) I am so glad you are dedicated to these lovely dogs. Patty.
