Need to leave my 11 y.o. B-girl for XMas

    We recently relocated, and don't know anyone with Basenji in the area. Can someone recommend a good sitter or home to leave our good girl? We are near Philly, Chester County. I don't feel comfortable with a sitter that is used to take care of labs and golden retrievers, and knows nothing about Basenjis.

    I have tons of family in Deleware county/Philly. I live about an hour and 20 mins away near Atlantic City. It's a little bit of a drive but I'd be more than happy to help you out. I have a 10yr Basenji. Let me know if you need me! =)

    I know people in Bucks county but not Chester area. Your time is getting short for boarding, so if it looks like that might be the only option, do it pretty quick. Glad to give you my old bucks county vet office who is superb but pet sitters in your area– I don't know of one. :(

    A campsite would be good for them to roam around. When we take on vacation, I also make sure to visit any local pet cafe so they could eat food we usually don't cook.

    @lvoss: Have you been counting days since she went in? Also, Walmart has $4 fleece throw blankets that you can use on your furniture for her to lay on as a compromise to britches. If you are really lucky you may be able to find them at Big Lots for as low as $2.50 I'd second what lvoss says about fleece - my pup is in heat as well although we're 10 days further in (Liyah started on the 8th) than you are :D. I found a bolt of fleece in Walmart's remnants section this week - cut 3 throws from it - actually thicker than the pre-made throws. The bolt cost 2.84 - quite a deal!

    See that is what I am dying to hear. we just got home and he made a really worried sound when we got out in the backyard. Come to find out Luna, our Schnorkie and Otis had been "playing" with one of our younger chicks that keeps flying out of the run…needless to say he was bothered by the fact that A) the chicken was traumatized and B) I was mad...Thankfully the chick is not hurt severly and will be Ok with some loving inside for a few days.
