I thought about trying to contact a reputable breeder about any " extra " dogs they may have should the BRAT adoption not work out for some reason . I just got an e-mail from the BRAT coordinator who said my home visit should be set up soon . So I'm really hopeful . I have a degree in Social Work ( though I haven't worked in the field for quite a few years ); so , my heart just gravitates toward rescue . I guess we'll see . We just REALLY need a basenji in our home.

Hi everyone! I am very new to the world of Basenjis. I recenty got engaged to a man who has a 6 yr old Basinji named Kitiara (along with a German Shepard- Usha and a Golden Retriever- Amber). When you add my cat- Jewel Kitty to the mix, we have quite the family! I am very interested in learning everything I can about the breed and look forward to recieving lots of good advice. I have the feeling that I am in for quite an adventure! We just moved into a new house and as soon as I can find my camera I will post some pics.

Another welcome from Tampa here. Have you had the dogs to Dogwood Park? It is an amazing 26 acre fenced dogpark in Jacksonville with a huge pond, we planned a vacation a couple of years ago so we could stop there for an evening for our 3 to play. It really is great, and open to non-members on weekends for a very small fee.
This is a great place to learn about basenjis, the good and the bad. They are cat-like in personality, very clean and incredibly smart. You are in for some fun!
