Great news!

These pups are 11 weeks old.
I have not contacted the rescue to see if they are still available.
Here is their Petfinder page:

This one has been up for a while. I finally took the plunge and inquired about them just a couple days ago. This is the response I got:
"The Black and white girl is the only one I have left at this point.
The guy with the Mother dog bred her to a neighbors male Basenji against his
wife's wishes. When the pups were about 4 1/2 weeks old she threatened to
take the babies to the pound. They were too messy. He called me and I took
them in here. I met the Female she was a brindle and she was definitely a
Basenji. The neighbor with the male kept one of the pups. Never met the male
but was told he was a tri colored male.
Only other Basenji proof I have is that my 3 year old female Basenji adopted
the litter and has been taking care of them since they have been allowed out
with the rest of the dogs. :)"
How sad is that, thank goodness for the person that took them… and yes.. at 4 weeks they get MESSY!.... The one Tri, look to me like a Trindle instead of a clear Tri. And that would make sense since if the mother was Brindle.
I thought the same thing- trindle!
And yes, so sad…people are really just stupid...simply put
I would have suggested the low cost spay/neuter clinic for the dam-only $65 and for the sire only $50 if both are under 30 lbs.! I am glad they were not taken to the shelter-high kill rates in Houston.
