    **I was going to wait until Sunday to post her, but Bitsy is just to cute. She has been with BRAT for quite awhile.

    Mini Bio About Bitsy

    Bitsy is 3yrs old and a small girl at 14 pounds. She was turned over to BRAT by the SPCA. She lives with 6 other dogs and gets along with them very well. This is a very happy dog, that by her BRAT profile seems to just love life.

    Bitsy does have Fanconi, great thing for her is that it was caught early and she has had no kidney damage from it and all her blood work is great. She is on the Fanconi protocol, and takes her bicards and supplements with ease. Basenjis with Fanconi can live a long, normal lifespan, if caught early and kept on the Fanconi protocol. The Fanconi protocol looks overwhelming to read but it is easy to administer once you get the hang of it.**

    **Here is Bitsy's BRAT page. http://www.basenjirescue.org/DOGS/PA/PA-Bitsy.asp

    If you are looking for a sweet well rounded basenji that gets along with everyone and thing, please consider adding Bitsy to your family.**

    I just think Bitsy is the cutest little girl! If Stormie weren't so other dog (especially smaller dogs) aggressive, I'd love to adopt her! I hope she finds her perfect furever home!

    Bitsy is a great dog. Judy brought her to visit us when we were looking to adopt. She was one of the "test dogs" to see if Deke would get along with two girls. I would have loved to keep her..she was great with my kids and Deke but we were working on getting two "olders" that also really needed homes.

    Why don't I own a farm with 100 acres :( So I can take all the Bs that need loving homes…this really pulls on my heart strings :(

    This type of venue will help new folks see that all dogs aren't "perfect" but we love them anyway.
    I so hope she is rehomed soon.

    We rescued our current B from Medfly - just north of LA. Karen at Medfly was wonderful to work with and we love our little girl!

    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

    One female and two males… according to her email to me. Tamara Penwell is her name... I wonder where she is "relocating" to? Those poor pups~ I guess she needs the $600 for her relocation truck?

    @Janneke: Sahel is a gorgeous girl! I hope she finds a good home soon! This is what I don't understand.. The pup is about a year old and the owner wants to get rid of her because: "I'll be traveling and working more this year, so I'm finding a new home for a beautiful and sweet female Basenji" What about thinking before getting a dog :( It is possible that the owner has a new job, something possibly unexpected especially with the sketchy job market in the US presently. In any case it sounds as if the owner cares about her and would like to find a good home.

    Oh, I don't. I can only "have" 2 dogs, but I sure work like heavens to get the dogs matched from the rescue group to the home. Win/win. worth more than gold to find the right place that cares for the dogs forever.
