Senior boy needs a new home

Basenji Rescue

  • Kathryn, you are doing a great thing and i wish you well with your lovely gesture. I am sure with time Quinn will settle with you since you are clearly a good person and animals have great instincts about people. You were unfortunate with Indy but you did your best and at the end of the day, you at least ended her personal suffering and not for selfish reasons, it was for the right reasons. Dan, you were lucky to be working with a stronger dog i suspect, good on you for your determination.

    I look forward to hearing how Quinn gets on Kathryn.

  • I'm having a problem with transport for Quinn.I can't drive to get him and need someone to deliver him. I could drive to meet someone but not a long way as I'm not a happy driver.

  • Anybody up in the NJ or NY area that can help Kathryn out?


  • So glad Quinn will be joining your pack, that is my grandbaby boy thru Gem.


  • Please please someone help Kathryn get Quinn


  • BRAT has a group that help transport b's.
    I don't know if they will be able to help you with this, but you can sure ask.
    There is also an airlines that fly dogs, and they do a great job.
    So, good luck..do let us know how it goes.


  • Jaroufa,

    Several forum members volunteered to help you out unfortunately your mailbox is full and we are unable to send you their contact info privately.

    Please email admin@basenjiforums.com with an alternate email or phone and we will pass it on to forum members who volunteered to help you.


  • Kathryn now has Quinn! Thank you all for your help offers and concern.


  • Hi Dan,
    Quinn is home with me and now the long task of helping him settle in.He is very frail and in need of a little TLC.I will try hard to make him feel welcome.

    Kathryn


  • I'm sure you will do an excellent job with him Kathryn. Thanks!


  • Best news i've had all day! :) Hope all goes well Kathryn. Please keep us posted and post some pics when you have time.

    Here, here! Glad to hear he made it to you….keep us posted on his progress.


  • Kathryn your a very special person. So very kind you have a great heart. I could never give up one of my animals no matter how old. I cannot give up even when they leave us and go over. My children are my children but we also have four legged children. Forgot one, two legged the parrot. Hope all is well. Let all of us know and pictures please.

  • Kathryn - I'm happy for you and Quinn.
    People are so helpful, and it means so much when they lend a helping hand to rehome a rescue.

    Bless you.


  • Go teamwork to get Quinn to his forever home!! I love this forum - and the love that passes between strangers, all stemming from a curly tail=)


  • Would like everyone to know that Quinn is already settled here and making himself at home.He loves to eat the raw diet that I feed here and I'm sure that he will put on some much needed weight.He seems to be a sweet little soul and sits and looks lovingly too me for a cookie.
    My other B's seem to except him especially Classy who has found a quick friend.
    He is no trouble at all and the little bit of meds he takes is no problem and at night he wears a male wrap for leaks.All in all,I will give him the much needed TLC that he deserves.

    That is great, glad to hear that he is fitting in so well….. curious about his "leaking" problem.... is it just when sleeping?... do you think he might have an UTI?... since he is only 13, bit early to be having problems holding his urine.... or is that the reason that the previous owners decided to place him?


  • Happy for all of you we are having Christmas in Aug.

    Rita Jean


  • Kathryn, this makes me so happy :)I hope he has many long years with you and your family. Glad he's found a friend in Classy. What is a male wrap please? In the past we had a problem with a Leaky Basenji boy.

    I agree, BRAT does get in pairs and ask they be adopted together plus BRAT works really hard to ensure placement are suitable and going to good homes. If your looking for a basenji savvy home them I would say "yes, getting the fanconi test will help getting them placed"…anyone not savvy or not caring to know about basenji genetic conditions won't care if theyre tested or not)

    Pat, I always do try to find out. If they respond to me, I can "maybe" get some info. I feel that responsible breeders WANT to get back any b before it goes into rescue. So, I do try. Will let you all know, if I can.

    Taz has been in foster care through the Midwest Dog Resuce Network since he was turned over by the breeder (I believe around 8 months old). He had two sisters in foster care with him for a short time but they were adopted quickly. They were all shown on the BRAT website but were not evaluated by, or in the care of BRAT. He is such a handsome boy, I had given some serious thought to adopting him until they updated his profile to say that "he likes to be the boss". My female B absolutely has to be the boss of all other dogs (!) so I knew this combo wouldn't work out :( Here is the link to the organization caring for him: http://midwestdogrescuenetwork.com/default.aspx
