Hopefully he escaped to go home! And will get there safe and sound.
Found Basenji in Decatur, GA

On behalf of Boo, I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart for trying to help this little guy. I know that BRAT will help you find a nice home for him. He looks like a pretty dog, he needs a few really good meals and then he is ready to go. He sounds like a pretty typical B as well, Hyperish and not happy in a crate..lol.

Boo is beautiful and so lucky to have found you. Your special person and thank you for ever and always. You have done a great job thank you for caring. Let us know how it goes and I know BRAT will help you. Don't forget us and let us know. Have a great week-end.

The pictures broke my heart. Poor guy. The Cats Other Mother: You are such a kind compassionate person. Thank you so much for helping this guy out. You have a big heart….are you sure you don't want a basenji. You seem like you'd make a good basenji mom. And Vicki....you are a sweet heart for offering to open your home and heart to another guy.

Thank you Dan and BasenjiDiva. Boo has a home in North Georgia Mountains if BRAT isn't able to find a foster home. My vet has looked at the pictures of Boo and she is quite concerned about his teeth and general health. Because of the condition of his teeth, she fears he may have been a backyard breeder's dog and was set loose. Boo is so fortunate to have found two loving people who are helping him find his way.

Cheers for your home visit.
Please keep us posted. Do you have a particular baby in mind? -
No one in mind in particular, would just love to help in any way.

Thanks for taking him in and do not forget to do a urine strip test for glucose/Fanconi or have the vet do a urine test. He may be thin because of it and he is at the right age to have it. Perhaps his teeth are bad because he bites at the crate wires. I have seen commercial breeder dogs do this as my Zippy's littermate sister had no upper front teeth because of biting at the wires.

Thank you for taking in this boy and helping him out. I do hope that more effort is put into finding his owner before he is rehomed though. Many years ago I had a Basenji escape at a dog show in another state. He was gone for a week and his condition seriously deteriorated during that time. He lost 5 pounds, his coat faded, and he looked pretty dismal. He looked similar to the dog in the pictures. My point is that just because a dog isn't in pristine condition when found it doesn't mean he was mistreated prior to being lost. He may have a family who misses him greatly and maybe they just don't know how to go about finding him.

Does anyone know what has happened with Boo?
I've emailed The Cats Other Mother and haven't received a response.
I hope BRAT has been able to find a foster home.
Please update us. -
I received an email from The Cats Other Mother and Boo is being fostered by BRAT. His new name is "Scout."
-
good to hear that he is being taken cared of, Scout is a sweet name..
