Who's Fostering Paxton in DC?

Basenji Meetups & Events
  • OH!! NO fair!! ;)

  • If it works out for the applicant we will have to have a Hampton Roads Basenji group road trip up for the Reston Pet fair this year! :D The more the merrier!

  • I emailed with the coordinator for DC. He won't give out foster parent's details for security reasons. However, he did say that there is a group of them that hang out in Logan Circle in DC quite often - all B owners or foster parents. He also told me that they sometimes coordinate a meet at he dog park in DC. Invited me to come. :)

    The coordinator for DC is William Key. If anyone is interested in contacting him, let me know. BRAT doesn't have it on their site, so I best not throw it around here. ;) At any rate, he said that Paxton got a ton of applications. He hasn't had a lot of time to go through them because he's been focusing on Buster. Additionally, the foster is starting to grow attached to Paxton and I presume that if the foster adopts him, that would be ideal.

  • Looks like the coordinator's suspicions were correct. Paxton is off the BRAT list! I guess the foster fell in love with him. YAY! Another B saved! :)

  • Awww… bitter sweet!

  • William told me that he was going to talk to my applicant first, he wanted to place Paxton with him but told me that Paxton was doing really well with another dog at the Foster home that he wanted to talk to my applicant. Either way I am happy to know that he found a good home and I hope that if the applicant that I did a home visit for did not get him that they don't get discouraged, I hope that another perfect dog will come their way.

  • Paxton is coming to Virginia Beach! I am so excited!!!!! Another B in the area for us to play with that makes a total of 1 unless you include Youngandtired in North Carolina which would make it two!

  • Is that where his foster is??

  • No, the applicant I did the home visit for. I got an e-mail from them yesterday that said they are picking him up in D.C. on Saturday.

    It is going to be so cool to have another Basenji close by. I have only really seen two that go lure coursing and one at the dog park one time.

  • Well the CUTEST basenji you all are talking about would our dog Paxton. He is the best dog in the world and we love him. He is very energetic and seems to love my boyfriend and I very much. He is one spoiled dog though, we run him twice a day and buy him whatever he seems to sniff at the pet store. It is funny to see that are little Paxton is a famous baensji in this forum but he is in a loving home and we couldnt be more thrilled to have him in our lives.

  • OH! You guys are so lucky!! I was totally eyeing him on BRAT!! Post pics! I miss seeing his sweet little face! ;)

    I have a 1 year old female B that would love to play. Haven’t seen any Bs in this area. I live close to NOVA so if you set up a date I’ll gladly bring her to a dog park!
  • Any B's in Portland, OR?

    I am pretty close to Turnersville, but I am in Philly, also drive to the shore in south jersey frequently. Would love to see my 10 month old running around with other basenjis. Let me know if you are ever interested in meeting up.

    It could be a neurological problem. I have noticed it on my elderly Bs especially when they are just standing still. Jennifer

    Senjishowgirl and Hondo, I'd love to have my guys have some fun with other b's. Are there any dog parks near you all? There are none by me. I'll be moving to Flint here soon for college so I'll check back to see what folks are up to in a few weeks.

    It was a great time! It was great having Cairo and Chloe and Levi join us, and meeting Buddy for the first time. We'll be meeting at Balboa again on Sunday, January 11 at 2 pm. Can't wait to see everyone. Any other San Diego 'senjis out there that want to play? We should be doing a No County Saturday meetup on January 24 too; we'll keep you posted as details develop. Happy New Year to all our basenjis and their people!
