I would take her in a heartbeat if I had room.. unfortunately I'm pushing my limits with my father already, as I've saved a few cats while living with him again. She sounds like a wonderful dog. I have no doubt that the bites were provoked. Dogs, especially Basenjis, can be very sensitive. If you don't understand that you're dealing with an animal that has feelings too, you're in trouble. I will keep her in my prayers. May she find the best fur-ever home!
Basenji mix in IN and Ks need rehoming
-
IN. JUNIOR is a 45 pound, one year old, red & white, neutered male Basenji mix. He's still young, very active and needs an active home with a fence and lots of love and attention to give him. He needs someone to teach him to be a good dog. For 23 hours every day this poor guy is alone in a dark cage at the pound. This has been his life for the past 6 months.
Soon he'll be euthanized for space.He is at Griffith Animal Control, Griffith, IN.

Apparently this is not a very nice facility and if she isn't adopted soon she will be put on a urgent list and she would only have about 12 hours to find a safe place.
She is at the T.Russell Reitz Regional Animal Shelter, Manhattan, KS.

http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11518239Contact the appropriate shelter, and myself, ASAP if interested in either of these dogs. By adopting or fostering either one you are truly saving its life. A short distance transport could possibly be arranged if you are wanting to adopt or foster but are out of state.
Let me know.
