Looking for a home for my 2.5 yr old female tri color

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • M

    This past october I adopted zoe on her birthday. She is spayed and up to date on all shots. Also has a gps transponder implanted in her neck. Adopted her from the humane society for 300. The reasons I am looking for a home for her is that my work schedule has changed and that my current housing situation doesnt allow pets. I have been hiding her these last 6 months and havent been able to find different housing due to working more. Its just not fair to her being stuck inside all day when she loves activity and running. A little about zoe is that she has been the best behaved and mannered dog ive had or been around. She is very obedient, has never relieved herself in the house or any friends house, is very easy going at the dog park, very clean, and she is very scheduled as in eating and going outside and for walks. She just deserves better than what I have been offering her and belongs somewhere with a larger house and land. I have pictures of her I can send with my cell phone. And am willing to meet out of state if need be.
    Thanks mike 651 214 5313 feel free to call with any questions or email hotrodlincoln187@yahoo.com

    Sigh. You may need to check your adoption contract. It is possible that they prohibit you from placing her without their approval. I will refrain from asking why you rushed to get a dog before you could legally keep her, or comments about the slack humane society for adopting without written proof from landlord you could have her (which is standard for GOOD rescues and shelters)… and just say glad you are trying to find her a home. That said, I agree. Get in touch with Basenji rescue who can foster her and find her a perfect home.

    Mike, I must say at least your trying to find a home for your girl and not just putting her to the trash. While I cannot and will not give up my babies that does not mean that sometimes for some reason someone has to find a new home for there B. I also go with checking your contract as there maybe your answer. Whatever the outcome I do hope that you do find the correct home and keep looking until you do. Best of luck.

    @gianna said in Looking for a female pup: as far as i can afford to go... I think @zande was asking what distance you would be willing to travel.... 10km? 800km?

    All pups have been placed as responsible breeders have reservation lists. We are not at this time planning a litter for 2020 or 2021. I would be happy to talk to you about Basenjis. You can search for responsible breeders at www.basenji.org by state, however as far as I know all responsible breeders on the West Coast already have full reservation lists. You would be looking at litters possible in 2021. This is the time to connect with a responsible breeder and get on their reservation lists for 2021. And if you are looking for a dog that is hypoallergenic, Basenjis do shed and have dander so they are not really hypoallergenic. While they can do well with people with allergies, you need to spend time with them and more than one time. Be sure that you check out health testing yourself, regardless of what you might be advised. Tests for DNA testing is public knowledge at www.ofa.org. You need to have either a registration number or name to check this out for yourself to verify. I suggest all people looking for a Basenji, even my own, do this.

    @cathyroy I am not sure what Natasha is doing, if busy or whatever with the holidays. You may be what she wants, but she's got company or otherwise tied up. She did say maybe set up a trial, so give it a few days before getting upset. However, I will make a few observations about the fit. you have small children you say are good with animals, but you don't have one, so how do you know how they will be with one actually living with you? your interest in a basenji is based on their lack of significant shedding. This is not the breed for a family with young children who have little or no experience with dogs. Your husband presumably works, so the dog will mostly be with you and your children. you are wanting to ADD a dog to your family. She isn't looking to give the dog away. Just as you would be careful of who you have babysit your children, she hopefully wants a suitable fit for her dog. For me, that would be someone experienced in the breed or at least a lot of experience with a variety of dogs and is interested in fostering, not taking, my dog. It isn't an easy decision either for her or for someone agreeing to keep her dog.

    I don't see him listed on the MostlyShepherd link. Perhaps he found a home? I hope he's happy.
