Texas girl needs home

Basenji Rescue
  • Believe me, I know rescues are a risk - hard to tell what you're getting into. A year later, our Bongo is finally a mostly well-behaved boy (hey - he's a basenji, not a saint :rolleyes:) who still has some challenges, and we still don't know what health issues may be coming. (Next up - submitting swab test.)

    Still, it's a heartwarming thing to take an abandoned pup and turn it into a well cared-for family member. I'd never exchange a day of our journey.

    So, this girl needs a home - anyone in?

    I have no idea where the dog went to, but maybe someone on here does. I heard about your car accident long after and am just glad you are okay. (( hugs ))

    I feel like people need to be just as careful when choosing a rescue as they are when choosing a breeder. Rescues have been found to be hoarders, to be breeders labelling their dogs as rescues as a marketing ploy, or like PETA, to kill 97% of animals they "rescue". The impression I got of this rescue was that it was not one I wanted to work with because they seemed to hold some extreme views. I am delighted to hear that I was wrong and that this is a good rescue. The situation with the "breeder" is horrible, and I am glad this girl is finally being cared for. I agree that the breeder has earned herself a place in you know where. After Estelle passed away while my MIL was in the process of trying to adopt her she is a little gun shy. It is amazing how attached you can get to an animal you haven't even met. -Nicole

    I wanted to get Roo but I have a couple family members that have been ill and don't want to have to board a newly arrived furry friend. So … we will wait to adopt again.
