    I am looking for a sitter who could look after 6months basenji for 2 weeks. We are going for 2 week holidays in jan/feb and we would like to find someone who cares about basenji and would have planty of time to enjoy his company! The basenji owners would be great idea! We live in NYC and we could travel around other NY states, as long as he could stay in a safe and loving home. I dont want to leave him in a dog hotel as i would worry about his stay a lot! Could someone advice me please!!!:confused:

    I would be more than happy to take care of him! I have a 11yr Basenji boy myself. I'm down by Atlantic City. However, I do not have a fenced in yard. I bring my boy to the dog park to run and walk him everyday. Let me know! =)

    Hello suzee! Thank you so much for your reply, lovelly to know that you have 11yr old basenji boy! :) That sounds as a good experience. Dont worry about the yard, we dont have it as well, we live in an apartment and he loves to stay indoors as long as someone is with him. Plus the winter weather will keep him at home anyway! ;) I'm a housewife so most of the time i stay with him. Do you stay at home too with your basenji?? Before going for some holidays I would love to have him safe in a loving home!

    Yes our basenji gets along with other dogs. he is a very freindly and cute little boy. He sleeps in a crate when he needs to stay at home alone. But during the night he sleeps in his doggy bed in the bedroom. Thank you for your help! :) We would like to find someone closer to Manhattan who could look after him. If not then we will contact you Suzee, thank you so much for your reply! Hope your basenji is doing good, getting cold! ;)

    Hello Armstrong,
    I live in NJ. I'm a longtime breeder of basenjis,35 years to be exact.
    I have a fenced yard and kennel runs. I usually board the puppies that I
    have placed over the years.
    Would be happy to help you with your pup.
    Don't want to give my # on this forum.
    You can give me your contact info.
    I live minutes from Six Flags Great Adventure
    if that is closer for you.

    I would highly recommend Rocky 1 breeder. Yes Armstrong had the best holidays ever when we were away! If you have a basenji try to board with Rocky 1 breeder. My Armstrong was very healthy and without any stress after the boarding. Was good to keep in touch and to know how he was doing, we were very happy. And Armstrong will be back soon! ;) Thank you again Kathryn for your help! Armstrong is missing you a lot! Our best regards!

    Hi Suzee: I'm currently looking for a sitter – are you still available? I have a 9-year-old basenji boy who's used to cats.

    We use ones from Rukka. Not sure if they’re available everywhere but they are they best ones we have tried (others always fell off, especially in deep snow). I think having two Velcro closures on each sock has been key. I also prefer the soft shell ones as our B seems to accept them more and they don’t twist as much as the ones with a hard sole. Here are the ones I am referring to: https://rukkapets.com/paw-wear/thermal-shoes-black

    I just bought Bella some Merricks Grammy's Pot Pie (dry). It sounds so good I'm tempted to give it a try, LOL!!! I haven't given it to her yet, I'm trying to time it out so I can introduce it slowly… I had to get it at a feed & seed supply store. It IS sad that people are uneducated about the differences of dog foods… but what is worse is that some of these companies don't care how bad the food is for our pets. Another example of how money is more important in their pocket... BTW, for treats we like Old Mother Hubbard!!!:D

    @dash: Thanks! We went right after X-mas. We ended up using someone from Craigslist. She was wonderful. I actually have 1 Basenji, 1 Beagle and currently 2 foster Basenjis. So it is a house full. Oh!!! I didn't see the date on your initial e-mail!!! A bit slow, I suppose….;). Oh well - for future reference.....:)

    Once you do get a list of vet hospitals go and visit them and ask questions. In my experience the good ones will let you see their examining rooms, boarding area, etc., and are quite willing to answer questions (including prices).

    I, (name), take you, (Basenji), to be my pooch, my constant friend, my faithful partner and my love from this day forward. In the presence of God, our family and friends, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad regardless of the obstacles we may face together, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to honor and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you, and to cherish you till death do us part. BDawg-you said it better then I ever could :D it is a true marriage in every way, shape, & form. There isn't ANYTHING I wouldn't do or sacrifice for my two pooches. I told my DH that I would sooner give him up then my dogs :D :D I'd never leave my dogs no matter what. He told me we'd have a bitter battle over the…lol :D BTW-I know EXACTLY what you mean by that "bond" they trust you to protect them & take care of them & love them.
