4 mo old puppies in W. PA

Basenji Rescue
  • I just saw an advertisement in my local newspaper for 4 mo. old basenji puppies "free to good home only". The phone # listed is (724)290-7574. I called, and it said to leave a voice mail.

  • How many puppies were there? Wow, free, things are that bad ..that they can't even sell their poor offsprings..
    Let us know what you find out.

  • Any more information about the pups? I had a male brindle rescue B that came from a breeder from that area. The breeder had a PA kennel license for a large number of dogs. After I found this out, I figured he had too many male Bs and wanted to sell him at the OH dog auction.

  • I think BRAT is looking into it.

  • I emailed BRAT about this. JR from BRAT said he called the number and left a voice mail. I haven't heard anything since then. Perhaps they already gave away the dogs. I went back in the classified section of my newspapers, and the ad was in for several days before I noticed it. Most mornings, I don't have time to read the whole paper. I just happened to notice the ad that day.

    Advertised as an African dog! Owners did not know what type of dog they were buying. This is near Amish country-only 25 miles away from Lancaster and I wonder if they bought her from a local breeder. Has anyone contacted them to find out any additional information like registration, breeder, etc.? Jennifer

    @yodel4me: I would love to foster but since BRAT won't let me adopt I doubt they would let me foster. I also have considered rescuing a dog every now and then on my own but I live on a retirement income so I really can't afford the extra veterinary costs. Being retired gives me more time than money. So I've decided the best I can do is volunteer at the animal shelter. Unfortunately the closest shelter I live to doesn't allow volunteers so I can only help at one that is twice the distance when I need to go into the city. I'm BRAT's Basenji mix coordinator, would you ever consider fostering a mix? You can e-mail me at: giza1@wildroseinternet.ca -Joanne
