Bs on Amtrak?

Off Topic
  • ZenGrrrlZ

    Other folks on this forum have mentioned Amtrak and its "no pets" policy. (I think there would be no better dog to allow on a train than one that doesn't bark and in fact will sleep the entire trip.) Has anyone been successful at traveling on Amtrak with a B?

    Thanks in advance.

    Amtrak is pretty strict about it. There was a petition going around during the holidays, trying to persuade Amtrak to allow pets. It may still be active. Good luck!

    I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

    @kembe - Very True Kembe, here is a link on looking for a responsible breeder. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags There are many scammers out there, don't fall for one.. or a person that is not a responsible breeder.

    @sanjibasenji Thanks for the article on Dog Genome Project - I found it very interesting. I was trying to figure out the interactive Genome wheel. It has the basenji closely related to the Azawakh and rat terrier but I’m still trying to figure out the first wheel which has the basenji listed w/ black/grey starting point. As far as the PBS Dog Tales video - it’s very interesting - it’s season 47 episode 2 - I highly recommend you watch the whole thing (54 minutes).

    @Kembe, nice post! We've gone to solid food chopped up in a food processor, but we're grinding it a bit more course as we go. So far, no puppies are choking, but good to know!

    Nika is the blk/wht, Ringo is in the pictures. He's a great cat. Was a stray that found us in 1992.
