Had to give up my B's - and I miss them


  • To spare you all the crappy details –- let's just say that upon finding out about my husband and his "girlfriend", I decided it was time for me to leave the marriage.

    I also decided that it was best for me to start clean and the emotional attachment I had to our 2 beautiful basenji's was too much for me....and I couldn't pick one over the other or even think about separating the 2.

    So, here I am, alone and looking for a new basenji to fill one of the holes in my heart.....Here's hoping I find a cute little bugger to warm up to me and love me unconditionally for who I am --- I know basenji's are great at that...their yodels tell me so!

    Here's hoping I can find a cute pup!
    Cheers!


  • Hi 6_kristy! Welcome to Basenji Forums!

    If you are looking for a new basenji you should post a wanted ad in the Basenjis For Sale or Wanted thread. We have a lot of great breeders and BRAT member that can help you out.


  • welcome! (I'm new too)

    that was a sad story, I wish you the best of luck finding the right b to start the next chapter in your life with.


  • Also, if you're looking for an "older" basenji that might make your life easier. There are lots of basenjis who are done showing and are in need of a home. Also, BRAT could help you with finding you a basenji that may have come from the same type of circumstances that you had with your two. Good luck!


  • a crappy a**hole like that doesnt deserve two great basenjis!! sorry to hear you had to part with your pups! GOOD LUCK finding a new one and starting another better chapter!!

    @wizard: They look like they are perfectly matched - and neither one looks "fat". I have uploaded the contrasting photos. Go have a kick

    They also need to have plenty of available things they are allowed to chew on! They are not a dog that can be allowed to get bored while unattended, not if you value your shoes, pencils, pillows, chair legs. . . . Awesome breed,though! No doubt about it. I'm glad I stumbled into them. I'd always heard about them when I was a kid,but it was just that they were "those African Barkless dogs". That's all I knew. I'm hooked now though. Two years ago Bloodhounds were my favorite dog. Now it's Basenji all the way! There are just no other dogs like them.
