Hello - New Member

Basenji Rescue
  • I just wanted to say Hi to everyone as a newly joined member of the forum. I am a District Coordinator with Basenji Rescue and Transport (BRAT) and I am especially interested in anyone posting information about Basenjis in rescue or in need of re-homing. I would be glad to assist anyone who would like to refer me to Basenjis in need of rescue from a shelter or that need to be re-homed from their current owners.

    Well I was told 3 days ago she'd be on the site and she still isn't. I have been emailing back and forth with Lori King from Brat Mixes…she submitted it and told me via email 3 days ago "She should be listed within a couple days"....so Im still waiting.

    That's so sweet. I'm glad there is a tentative truce now.

    I leave Luny in the kitchen mainly because that has flooring that won't be harmed when he spills the water bucket (I got one of those flat-sided ones that hangs with not a lot of water but he still makes a mess with it). When I leave in the morning it's dark out anyway. Lately he seems "resigned" to having to be in the kennel when I leave for work - he no longer howls and doesn't pee in it and doesn't tear up the rugs much any more (I can tell he doesn't really like it though). He doesn't hate the crate because he'll go in there readily to be fed and look for treats so that's good (EL D never would go near a crate and he would actually destroy one if forced). Luny's still a little anxious when I "disappear" even for short times so I'm not sure I can trust him loose in the house yet but I'll work on that. I leave him a kong with some peanut butter smeared kibbles - he hasn't yet learned (as EL D did early on) to toss the thing around so trying to lick out the insides keeps him occupied for awhile. We're progressing I think.

    I am so glad Foxy and Cami have such a good and loving home. The whole thing was so awful, though their former owner must miss them terribly, knowing they are loved and safe now surely be a huge comfort. Hooray for you, for rescuing 2 good girls. Anne in Tampa
