He has the body of a Basenji and running style too (has a picture of him chasing a Beagle-looks like a lure courser) but has the head of a Chi. He is a cute looking boy! He is listed as special needs because of his separation anxiety. I am not sure how the shelter knows this unless he is in a foster home. Dogs will act totally different outside of the shelter environment.

I have not contacted the shelter to see if he is still available.

The shelter is located approximately 75 miles south/southeast from Chicago, IL and 35 miles south/southeast of Kankakee. It is located in a county adjacent to IL. It is also located 115 miles northwest of Indianapolis.

Here is his Petfinder page:

@hlevonius ,
Thank you for responding, but I have decided to wait until the end of this year before getting a dog. I'm sorry for making a premature decision. I hope someone that is ready will respond. Thank you again. Carl

Our Mickey gets pretty nippy when excited, too, and it was much more of a problem when he had those crazy sharp puppy teeth, but now at 1 yr old he responds pretty quickly to "gentle" and "kisses", "no bite" prompts. But when he gets too worked up I have to just walk away because his first instinct is to mouth & he doesn't seem to know his own strength.

Someone mentioned winter activities - I would strongly suggest looking into getting a Varsity Ball (if you google it it should come up) - they are indestructible and big! Def for outdoor only. My guy likes to roll his around and try to stand on it - it's pretty funny. And it's almost the only time you'll hear him growl and bark - he gets so worked up with it that I have to put it away sometimes or else the neighbors will think he's vicious (he sounds it when playing with this thing!). BUT he comes in from outside panting and exhausted, so it's a nice alternative for him. I would caution, though, that bc the ball is really hard, he's knocked it into our rain spouts and caused them to fall down. So just be careful if you have anything outside that could get damaged.

I sent Yachtz' information along to Muttville. They are a Bay Area rescue that specializes in senior dogs, and they have a wide network of supporters. Yachtz should at least get a cross-listing with them, if not a foster or adopter!
