Please go to Basenjirescue.org and join as a member. It will show you are serious about helping. BRAT always needs good foster homes. A home visit will be required (not sure if that is possible at this time considering this COVID-19 crisis). It is especially helpful if you have basenji experience. Not always, but very often, a basenji coming into rescue has special needs (i.e., behavioral, medical, etc.). It is good to ask yourself if you and your family are willing to deal with that. Fostering is hard but it can also be a wonderful and rewarding thing to do.
Medfly Basenji Rescue

Is this a legitimate basenji rescue? It's located in California. Other than CBR and BRAT, does anyone know of any other basenji rescue orginizations?
-
Yes, it's legit… I think Nobarkus got Buddy over there and I think he knows them well and may be able to provide you with more info...

I'm finding basenjis on petfinder.com that are from Medfly and when I visit their site, there's no record of the basenji(s) having ever been listed.

Most likely they have not had time to update their site, they are legit and a great rescue source. And they most likely get better results (more response) from petfinder.com

Yes, they are as I got my current Basenji there last year. They just don't get around to updating their site because they're so busy. You have to email Karen Jones and she will let you know what's current.
