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.

Very tempting, although I told myself i'd wait a bit longer for another Basenji.
-
Ah, yes, that's what we were telling ourselves right about the time Bongo came into view and needed a home.
And this one's in not too far from you, right?
-
Not too far, probably a few hours, but I'm hesitant since I got my B only a few months back. I'd rather wait until i've had him longer.
Still tempting though. I hope someone picks him up.

Thanks for the heads up - I contacted the other mn basenji breeders to see if anyone is missing a dog. From the area he was found there was a lady near there who traded carpeting someones house I think for a breeding pair of basenjis so I wonder if it's not one of hers. Don't remember he name off hand - but I will check my master list for her name to see if it might be hers.
We'll see if any of us can get to him.

Oh, that's great!
Sort of a weird story on how they got the pup, eh?
