I would take her in a heartbeat if I had room.. unfortunately I'm pushing my limits with my father already, as I've saved a few cats while living with him again. She sounds like a wonderful dog. I have no doubt that the bites were provoked. Dogs, especially Basenjis, can be very sensitive. If you don't understand that you're dealing with an animal that has feelings too, you're in trouble. I will keep her in my prayers. May she find the best fur-ever home!

How nice… "NEED TO GET RID OF HER ASAP"..... sigh
-
She looks to be a little older…poor baby. How endearing that they use the term "rid" as if she's some contagious nuisance....hope she finds a good home, perhaps BRAT can intervene?

These adverts break my heart but I can't help but look at them. This bitch looks as though she's saying Yes and I'd like to get rid of them.

Could someone send this to Colorado Basenji Rescue? This is another ad that did not come up when I did a search-how frustrating!

Her name is Casey; I did let CBR know about her, and she is now safe with them!
