Looks like the same phone number from the first post.

Sam number, the scumbag puppymiller.

This is sad. Would you not breed until you knew you had forever homes for the puppies? Sounds like she keeps breeding and selling them for low prices. Wonder if the pups even have their shots, it sounds like the parents have not had any health testing done, let alone the pups. I just hope they find good homes. People like this make me sick….

I would only rescue them if the breeder had her dogs spayed/neutered. I would tell her the market is bad for Basenjis and has been and will be for several years and that is why she has unsold older pups. I would also tell her if she is not doing any health testing especially for Fanconi then she will not be able to sell them.
About 7 years ago I e-mailed someone who was selling their under 1 year old male petstore puppy or wanted to use him as a stud for a fee. The dog was registered with an odd registry and I told them that there was no way they would recoup their money from an overpriced petstore puppy and no one would want to breed to him because of the registry and pedigree/health history. I told them their dog was worth $100 at the most and it would be best to have a rescue take him if they were unable to take care of him.

Is there nothing that can be done?
-
If someone in CO or a nearby state wanted to purchase them and then give them to a rescue go ahead but I would contact the rescue first to see if the rescue would take them! You could also purchase them as pets for yourself. I would still tell her about breeding untested Bs, how bad the market is and how she should spay/neuter her adult Bs.
Does anyone know if her breeding dogs have been DNA tested for Fanconi?
I have the same philosophy about purchasing/rescuing older pups from petstores. I would only do it if the price was low enough and told the store owner that Basenjis do not sell well so do not order anymore of them. I doubt the store would if it was stuck with an unsold pup.
At the dog auctions, I have a price limit on what I will pay for a B and if there were many for sale, I purchase the oldest ones first as I believe they deserve the most to get out. I have been outbid many times for a B and have gone home empty handed-after driving from Houston TX to MO.

CoBasenji Rescue is overflowing with basenjis right now, so I'm not sure there's a foster home spot available. Of course somehow Peggy manages to make it all work.
-
This lady has basenjis again. I contacted her once when I first started looking for a basenji and was very very shady.
-
If she is breeding this year and has pups on the ground then one should not buy from her.

I believe these are hers too that are very recent. http://dogs.oodle.com/view/basenji-puppies-male-and-female-red-and-brindle/2817556432-canon-city-co/

Sadly I believe Co Basenji rescue is familiar with this person.
-
I don't live neat CO but would put up the 200$ if someone could take them… Just a thought
-
Chealsie, Would you contact Brat and make that offer?
-
i just clicked on that first link and it was no longer there.
also, please think long and hard before purchasing a dog from a mass producer so that they can make room for more dogs. This is not someone getting out of the puppy business. Just someone's who could not move their "merchandise" in a timely manner in a bad economy. I know your heart is in the right place.

I agree, as they say do not enable them….. the only way they will stop is if they can't sell the pups and it no longer is a "cash crop"
-
At that price, they aren't making a profit and they keep the dogs from being sold for more puppy mill breeding. I think $200 is acceptable.
-
I so hope they go to a good home. Sigh.
-
I absoloutely agree with not enabling, it's just 200$ isn't a lot to enrich two lives. It's hard for me to sometimes see these poor dogs when I spoil Oakley rotten as he is the only thing in my life (no kids). I sometimes spend more than that on Oak in a day…I will instead make a donation to BRAT, as has been my Christmas wish from those giving me gifts. At least this way I will feel as though I'm contributing to something
