Please go to Basenjirescue.org and join as a member. It will show you are serious about helping. BRAT always needs good foster homes. A home visit will be required (not sure if that is possible at this time considering this COVID-19 crisis). It is especially helpful if you have basenji experience. Not always, but very often, a basenji coming into rescue has special needs (i.e., behavioral, medical, etc.). It is good to ask yourself if you and your family are willing to deal with that. Fostering is hard but it can also be a wonderful and rewarding thing to do.
Finding a new Home for my Basenji
-
My Basengi Louie is 3 years old and has been a great companion for me. Unfortunatly I am at a point in my life where I can't provide him with the proper care that he deserves. I need help in finding him in a suitable home.
I have filled out an application to re home him last week but have not received a response.I'm wondering if anyone has advice on other areas I can possibly explore? Or if anyone else has information on this process.
Thank you,
Jennifer

I'm sorry that you have to give him up
Have you contacted BRAT? http://www.basenjirescue.org/

Have you contacted the breeder?

I didn't contact BRAT directly because I couldn't find any contact information. However, I did fill out an application to re-home him but have not received a response from anyone.
In terms of a breeder, I bought him from a pet shop and don't have any of that info either.Thank you guys for your response.

How long ago did you fill out the form, sometimes it may take a little while
here's an email for BRAT

I filled it out last Wednesday. Maybe I should just give more time.
I will try that link though, thanks so much!Jennifer

Can you post some pics and tell us a little about your dog- and why you're having to give him up? Many of us are involved in various aspects of the Basenji world and we could cross post if you give us more information. Thanks, and all the best to you and Louie.

Yeah, I'm kinda interested in knowing what this means, just curious:
"Unfortunatly I am at a point in my life where I can't provide him with the proper care that he deserves."
