    Welcome to the forum – lots and lots of good information here and it's all archived so you can read through old but interesting threads. Feel free to ask whatever.

    Thank you so much for making me feel welcome!

  • Welcome welcome. I love your adoptive spirit!

  • I know this isn't near you at all, but if you were up for a road trip… looks like basenjis of all ages, even pups, need homes.

  • My folks are in St. Pete! They have what we think might be a b mix, but my parents just insist that she is a black and white curly tailed dog. Just out of curiosity- the lovelyships name caught me- are you a sailor?

    Hope you find the perfect b for you!

    Thank you again and hello Switzerland, wow you're quite far from me! Haha, well I do love animals very much and would love to give one a good home. I'm holding out for the one that captures my heart. :p

    Wow, gosh do I wish I could get up to MI for this. But, as well know money is tight for everyone and I just sadly couldn't afford to go up there.:( If there was a way for them to even transport half way, which is not possible they're a shelter, I would jump on a chance in a heartbeat! Thank you for your help though it is imensely appreciated.

    Haha, well she sounds like she could be one! My boyfriends dog (Flea) was of unknown breed until I told him about Basenjis and sure enough he is a mix! Nope, haah Not a sailor I can barely swim actually. It was out of a song that I really used to like a long time ago and the name has stuck with me. Plus, I used to live outside of Boston and would go in and watch the sailboats in the bay and did think it was lovely;) .

    Wow, thank you so much for making me feel accepted. Yes, I have filled out a BRAT application so I'm awaiting my Basenji to find me. As soon as I can figure out how to get a photo on here of him, I will post it ASAP!

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    She is gorgeous! There are some good doggie Daycare places here in Tampa, I don't know of any right near Busch Gardens though. We have Camp BowWows (near the airport) and a place called Fuzzy Buddies (near Ybor City).
