Senior boy needs a new home

Basenji Rescue
  • I'm having a problem with transport for Quinn.I can't drive to get him and need someone to deliver him. I could drive to meet someone but not a long way as I'm not a happy driver.

    Kathryn

  • Anybody up in the NJ or NY area that can help Kathryn out?

  • So glad Quinn will be joining your pack, that is my grandbaby boy thru Gem.

  • Please please someone help Kathryn get Quinn

  • BRAT has a group that help transport b's.
    I don't know if they will be able to help you with this, but you can sure ask.
    There is also an airlines that fly dogs, and they do a great job.
    So, good luck..do let us know how it goes.

  • Jaroufa,

    Several forum members volunteered to help you out unfortunately your mailbox is full and we are unable to send you their contact info privately.

    Please email admin@basenjiforums.com with an alternate email or phone and we will pass it on to forum members who volunteered to help you.

  • Kathryn now has Quinn! Thank you all for your help offers and concern.

  • Hi Dan,
    Quinn is home with me and now the long task of helping him settle in.He is very frail and in need of a little TLC.I will try hard to make him feel welcome.

    Kathryn

  • I'm sure you will do an excellent job with him Kathryn. Thanks!

  • Best news i've had all day! :) Hope all goes well Kathryn. Please keep us posted and post some pics when you have time.

    Here, here! Glad to hear he made it to you….keep us posted on his progress.

  • Kathryn your a very special person. So very kind you have a great heart. I could never give up one of my animals no matter how old. I cannot give up even when they leave us and go over. My children are my children but we also have four legged children. Forgot one, two legged the parrot. Hope all is well. Let all of us know and pictures please.

  • Kathryn - I'm happy for you and Quinn.
    People are so helpful, and it means so much when they lend a helping hand to rehome a rescue.

    Bless you.

  • Go teamwork to get Quinn to his forever home!! I love this forum - and the love that passes between strangers, all stemming from a curly tail=)

  • Would like everyone to know that Quinn is already settled here and making himself at home.He loves to eat the raw diet that I feed here and I'm sure that he will put on some much needed weight.He seems to be a sweet little soul and sits and looks lovingly too me for a cookie.
    My other B's seem to except him especially Classy who has found a quick friend.
    He is no trouble at all and the little bit of meds he takes is no problem and at night he wears a male wrap for leaks.All in all,I will give him the much needed TLC that he deserves.

    That is great, glad to hear that he is fitting in so well….. curious about his "leaking" problem.... is it just when sleeping?... do you think he might have an UTI?... since he is only 13, bit early to be having problems holding his urine.... or is that the reason that the previous owners decided to place him?

  • Happy for all of you we are having Christmas in Aug.

    Rita Jean

  • Kathryn, this makes me so happy :)I hope he has many long years with you and your family. Glad he's found a friend in Classy. What is a male wrap please? In the past we had a problem with a Leaky Basenji boy.

  • Pat,
    Yes,I think that his leaking might have been a reason that his owner didn't want him anymore.That and he is on meds for seizures.I haven't test stripped him yet but his father is affected,don't know about mom.He doesn't drink to much and he only leaks at night.

    A male wrap is like a diaper for a male dog,it just goes around there waist with a pad inside.They're great for keeping males dry.

    @lisatest: What do you all think about getting a dog micro chipped? Last night I caved and let her sleep in her bed on our bed. Amazingly no whining. I believe Mia won on this battle. :) She is very precious and she puts a smile on my face every single day. I got my boy microchipped when he was neutered. It didn't cost much extra & I like the extra sense of security I have now. Although, as Tanza said, they do wander. Dallas' started out on his shoulder blade & now is more in his front thigh. If that makes sense. The vet said it is not an issue now but if it keeps moving towards his chest, she will have to remove it & replace it in a better spot. However, it is still completely worth it. Welcome to basenji ownership 101. They are so darn persistant when they want something. Dallas sleeps in my bed & is quite the bed hog! Also, he must sleep under the covers now! Once you give in, there is no going back. Haha. So glad it worked out so well for you & that she makes you so happy. I look forward to seeing more pictures of her!

    Taz has been in foster care through the Midwest Dog Resuce Network since he was turned over by the breeder (I believe around 8 months old). He had two sisters in foster care with him for a short time but they were adopted quickly. They were all shown on the BRAT website but were not evaluated by, or in the care of BRAT. He is such a handsome boy, I had given some serious thought to adopting him until they updated his profile to say that "he likes to be the boss". My female B absolutely has to be the boss of all other dogs (!) so I knew this combo wouldn't work out :( Here is the link to the organization caring for him: http://midwestdogrescuenetwork.com/default.aspx

    I am so glad Foxy and Cami have such a good and loving home. The whole thing was so awful, though their former owner must miss them terribly, knowing they are loved and safe now surely be a huge comfort. Hooray for you, for rescuing 2 good girls. Anne in Tampa
