Good for you Andrew..positive thought it is..being the better
(hu)man is always better..
Sorry this happened to you and the dog. I do think that most dogs do find the final family they are suspose to be with.
It might take some time, and there might be issues, but home is something we all seek, and when its right, we all know.
Is your B a male? ….. for some reason I thought that was the case... and if so.. you really should be looking for a bitch to add to your pack... If I am wrong about that, sorry... but if not... maybe this was a blessing...
Andrew, I'm sorry you weren't able to meet Nano.
Keep your eyes open and you'll find another.
I now have three Basenjis and am NEVER going to look at petfinder.com again…;)
I'm sorry things didn't work out.
However, this one is awfully cute if you're still looking

And this one reminds me so much of my old man, so I know she's a good dog. (My brindle boy has never destroyed anything other than a dog bed and some dog toys and has always from less than a year old, been loose in the house when I go out. That and a bunch of titles like you would not believe.)

And curses to the person who told me through subliminal messages that I need to go look at basenjis on Petfinder.
I clicked on the cite and was flabbergasted! 14 pounds!! She must have been neglected or abused. My first guy barley got over 20 pounds but my understanding is that is a result of treatment for heartworm. Skinny butt he was but lived to 16 years. 14 pounds is just wrong.
Andrew, I'm sorry to hear that things didn't work out. I hope that he is in a good loving home, whomever it's with. And don't worry, you will find Shango's perfect mate!
AndrewnShango, did you see the post about the brindle in WVA? Have you tried BRAT?

It's not impossible for two basenji males to live together. And actually, the only times Shango has ever had "spats" with other dogs, only twice, they were both female.
When we got Eddie, Topper and he bonded very closely. Ed is his "wingman", and defends Topper when necessary. Two boys (neutered) will likely get along better than 2 girls! We know other people with 2 boys who really get along wonderfully.
