Can anyone help this little dog before its too late?
-
Great thank you for checking this out and contacting BRAT, will they pick him up if no one else does? Like I said I am not too familiar with BRAT, I only know what I have heard discussed on this board. I just figured if anyone could help, it would be someone here :)

Here is the link to BRAT. BCONC due to insurance reasons can't do rescue and refer (unless it is one of our member breeders) to BRAT. This pup is most likely from the BYB from Grass Valley….

I will also send them a note -
Thanks, but what is BCNOC and BYB? I am not familiar with these organizations, we got our Basenji from a shelter in Dubuque, so I am unfamiliar with BRAT and breeders, etc. Hopefully someone can find this cute guy a home, do the shelters often kill shortly after the date, or do they give awhile? I noticed it was yesterday, so hopefully there is time left.

BCONC is the Basenji Club of Northern California and BYB is Backyard Breeder that breeds and sells for profit. If you go to the link, you can learn about BRAT.
I believe all shelters are different and would have no idea about that one. Shelters here is the Bay Area of California are no kill shelters -
I remember… It was Boxman2572 he lives in Burbank CA, he has been saying he wants to adopt a basenji.
-
I posted the info on the SOCAL get-together thread… but southern Cali seems a long way away from this little guy. And Boxman was not on that thread. I had emailed Mike Swan (of BRAT) directly so hopefully he'll check his email this morning and get someone on the case. Keep your paws crossed!

if only the dog would have been closer, I could have snatched him up… well its good that they found a possible adoptee.
i'm still looking for one.....

From what I've seen on the BRAT web site (I was checking for several months before I got Tyler and Zoey)–there usually aren't many Bs available in CA (but there is a link to Medfly on their site). And when there is, it seems to be in this same area (Sacramento), and they seem to get snapped up pretty quickly--which is great for the dogs. It is hard to be patient sometimes, but things sure did work out in the end for me--it was like Tyler, Zoey and I were meant to be together.

Yes, there are a couple of BYB's in the Sacramento area and that is usually where they show up for rescue.
