Basenji Rescue
  • Hi everyone

    I was wondering if anyone or anyone might know of a person that can foster my sisters dog for a few mths She is staying with me at the moment and unfortunately I can't take her dog in i have 3 dogs myself at this point . She {kody} is 6yrs old housebroken and very friendly dog to people and other pets except little dogs {she thinks there sqeaky toys} My sister will pay all expenses for her she is up todate on all shots she's right around 40 lbs and is a lab/terrier mix Where in Mass If anyone know of someone that can take her for a few mths please let me know she can drive her to anyplace in Mass or the surrounding states . Thanks in advance :)

    She only has about 1 week before she needs to put her somewhere the place she is keeping the dog will only watch her for 1 more week :(

    thanks
    Lori

    BTW, I also use the shunning method with my basenji. He gets into everything and so I have to baby proof my house. Sometimes I leave a drink on the table and he tries to drink out of it and when I catch him with it, I let him know I am mad! I growl at him and then turn my back to him and he gets very upset. When he does anything I do want him to do, all I have to do is growl at him and he comes over to me bows his head and curls up in my lap. I guess it is an instinctual reaction to submit to his pack leader. He hates it when I ignore him in any way. He is funny, because he will sit down and look at me and whine or try to jump up on the chair with me if he thinks I am mad at him. Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk

    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

    That's so sweet. I'm glad there is a tentative truce now.

    Dash, thanks for the update. I hope Sugar is soon doing better. That heartworm treatment is a b**ch for any dog. I hope your continued updates convince people that the the annual blood work and preventative are well worth their time and money, because as you well know, the alternative is quite a bit more costly and painful for the dog (and family) in the long run. Again, thank you and my prayers to you for a better month for you and Sugar.
