Basenji Rescue: Desperately Need Fosters homed Central-Eastern and North-Eastern US

Basenji Rescue
  • S

    BRAT is in desperate need of foster homes back east.
    You would have to go through the BRAT foster process, but if your willing to open your home to a b or b's in need, you could change a dogs life.
    I am posting this for William.
    ++++++++++

    I'm sending out another general broadcast because the number of new dogs coming into rescue continues to rise, and I have a backlog of dogs waiting to come into rescue with no where to go. If you can help, we urgently need your assistance now.

    A few folks responded to a previous request, letting me know they can take older, more settled dogs. Thank You! to those who replied. A few people replied from central and western states. I appreciate your willingness to assist, but long-distance transports are very difficult. We really need people in VA, MD, WV, DC, PA, DE and surrounding states. These are all reasonable 1-day transports that we have some hope of arranging with success.

    I have 5 young dogs in need of a foster home now. Please help if you can.

    Please consider fostering-it is joy to help a Basenji! I have fostered two in the last few years-one a young Basenji who had pups at a shelter and an elderly female whose owners were going into an assisted care facility and were going to have her euthanized within a few days if not rescued. The elderly girl lived a few more years-just shy of her 17th birthday. She had never lived with other dogs before and she was fine with my pack-but my dogs knew that she was older and wanted to be left alone. She was spunky though and would nip at them if they got out of line! If I was not having health problems, I would foster one! Jennifer

    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

    I posted a new thread re 2 of these b's who are having issues in their foster home and need help. I will share it with you all. 2- 3 yr old b's need fosters/homes, from pm bust –------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is a pair of the b's who were taken from the puppymill that closed. We really need a smart basenji home to foster and or adopt. Sharron I imagine they will be open to be moved to any near by states. Wilma (brindle) and Wanda (red and white), both three years old and from the SD group, are currently being fostered in central LA. They are very afraid of men and not doing well in their current foster home. If anyone in the southern states, TN or AR would be willing and able to foster them both together, please notify me. I would like to place them in a foster-to-adopt home if available. If you do not live in the area listed but can help with transportation to your location I will consider moving them out of the area. If you are traveling through LA and would not mind a couple furry passengers, let me know. They ride well in crates.

    @ChaseandZahrasmom: I just have to comment on what a beautiful website this is! Yeah - the folks in this group are wonderful and supportive for the Basenji breed. We adopted Daisy from them. Did anyone see how beautiful the B's are? They still need homes.
