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

Basenji Talk
  • 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.

    I would defintely recommend martingale collars, specifically the Lupine brand ones..they are fairly inexpensive and have a 100% guarantee, meaning if your dogs eats/chews or in any way breaks it they will replace, no questions asked..we have used that policy once, when Otis decided to eat his….. As far as food..I have used Blue Buffalo, and like it lots, especially since it is easier to find. I also like EVO, Canidae and The Honest Kitchen..My dogs are on RAW so we use the Honest Kitchen or Sojos for mix ins, even when they were puppies. Good luck and how exciting..did you mention where you got her? A lot of our dogs are related so it is always fun to know.

    Tell me more about your furbaby personality and how long you will be gone. There's also the new boarding place at the airport run by the humane society.

    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.
