Any basenji friendly boarding facilities either Houston or Georgetown/Roundrock TX?

  • Am planning on going to my "no dog in the house" sister's home for Xmas but not sure what to do with Thabo and Daisy (new rescue). Both are rate trained, but Thabo gets grumpy if confined all day. Daisy will cry if left alone so have some issues. May just have to make this a day trip.

  • I have several basenji friends in that area that may know of some, but most are not on this list. Terry Reed is on this list, maybe she will respond. I will see if I can get recommendations from them on facebook. I had an excellend home pet sitter for my basenjis when we lived in Harker Hts Tx. You should check with your vet to see if they have someone to recommend. There tended to be quite a few home type sitters in TX.

  • OK, have one friend in Houston who said she does some boarding, contact Edna Johnson in Houston-713-467-6739. She also has dog grooming there, not that basenjis need much:) Dog Boys Dog Ranch in Pflugerville is also recommended by another friend.

  • Thanks! I checked out the Dog Boys Dog Ranch, and it looked okay, but at $73/night, +$20/dog "analysis", and required turnout with strange playmates bas convinced me just to shell out for a hotel room. Sigh…. One grumpy Gus + relatives who ban dogs from the house (and not for health reasons) makes holiday travel annoying.

  • :( Sorry they have a no-dog policy. You might post on the brat board.. could be experienced folks in the area happy to board.

    @m0nia86 I know, what are the odds! I have not been up Cavehill in years also, so maybe it was meant to be that we bumped into eachother 😊 I saw the forum notification about Northern Ireland and I thought hmmmmm that's interesting, and had to take a look. I will private message you the email address that I have for Charlotte, but I am sure it's the same as what you have already been given.

    She's gorgeous - Probably Basenji in there somewhere, yes, Beagle though ? only the colouring might suggest it. Try a DNA test if it really matters !

    Sounds quite the opposite… he obviously wanted to be friends with the kitty! He was just overly enthusiastic about it, and maybe went about it the wrong way :D

    take him in to the kennel for a weekend. It will cost you some $$ but you will be able to see if he can "handle it" or you will have to get someone to move in and keep company with him.

    So I've committed to getting a brindle basenji pup January 7th. She'll be about 18 weeks old by then so hopefully not too old to cultivate a healthy, non-homicidal relationship with my cat. The wait is killing me, feels worse than waiting for christmas day as a kid ha ha.
