There is a whole world out there . We lived in Hawaii when we got ours. N.Z for $2,000 He was worth it. Most of the cost was the air fare.
Can anyone help this little dog before its too late?

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 -
Basenji CLub of Northern Ca. BCNOC. BYB = Back yard Breeder.

Any news????? Wish I was closer to Cal. to help out!
-
I haven't heard anything…
-
Wasn't there someone from So Cal who was looking for a basenji on this list? Does anyone remember who?
-
I suppose not much can be done on a Sunday, but please let me know if you hear anything! Hopefully they can at least find someone to foster him for awhile until someone decides to adopt him.
-
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 there is an adopter or a foster in So Cal, a BUR run could probably be organized. That would make the drive a bit shorter depending on how many people were willing to participate.
-
I received a note from Mike Swan, BRAT, that they knew of this basenji and there are plans already for his adoption to happen on Tuesday
-
That's great! Thank you for checking on this…that dog was too adorable to be let go, he looks exactly like my Tosca actually, maybe that is why I felt especially bad for him:) I hope whoever adopts him gives him a great home!
-
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.....
-
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttt!!!
-
Boxman you could still wait a couple of days in then call, just in case whatever is on Tuesday doesn't work out….good luck and I hope you find a dog soon!

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.

Great news everyone my Brother and sister in law just E-mailed me. They were planning to get Benny out and foster… called the shelter early today and Benny has been adopted. He has a family now!
I told them about Benny yesterday when I saw the post BDawg put up because they are not to far from that shelter. I'm so happy he was not put down.
