Hi,
We have two B's, currently 3 and 4 years old. We need a dog sitter from time to time and would like to find someone who is in tune with basenji's. We live in Wilmington, DE, close to Philadelphia. Anyone know of anyone? Thanks so much!
@scewbydoo One of our vet techs volunteers with the shelter where she was born. Her mom was labeled as Jack Russell. Her goofy nature makes me think Boxer mix, but who knows. The shelters down in S. TX aren't the most accurate at breed identification. I once had a shelter in San Antonio send me a picture of a brindle Basenji they wanted me to pull...it was a calico cat.
Regardless of breed, Roxy is home.
It might be a little far for you but ,I'm in NJ near Great Adventure.
I can watch your B's.
Breeder for going on 39 years. Send an e-mail and I will speak with you.

Well, the lab I mentioned (chocolate overweight one) almost took me out by slamming into my knee. I commented loudly " he better not insure my knee!" No comment from the owner. Others were keeping an eye on this over exhuberant dog too. Many peeps were standing behind a bench for protection.
What really bugs me is that the park has very visible signs when you enter it that say you must have control of your dog.
Yes, I already have a message in with my vet's office, but I figured I would have more of a chance to find a basenji-crazed sitter in the forums!
@sharronhurlbut:
Have you called your vet and asked for a pet referal re this service? That would be the first place I would ask.
I leave the radio on for EL D while I'm gone at work – not because it calms him down but because I don't want him going bonkers because he's hearing the squirrels making noise outside :) He generally sleeps while I'm gone.
