    I have, with no problems. I only fly United or Alaska/Horizon Airlines with my pets. I flew from Baltimore to San Jose. Never had a problem and they always took good care of my pups. Have any specific questions?

    I have never used San Jose, only San Francisco and for airlines only American and Delta.. Years ago Delta offered "Delta Dash" that was counter to counter service… of course I was such a wreck that after flying a couple of my B's as baggage... I will not do it any more....
    But that said, I am told that American, Delta and Continental are some of the best airlines to fly...

    I have flown from Oregon to San Jose and had a 8 week old pup in my lap the whole way. No problems except for him having gas which really stunk :)
    I had my sharpa bag under the seat but kept him in my lap covered by my jacket and a towel to hide him.

    i havent flown to where your talking but my caira had a litter of pups and i shipped them from michigan to pa, md, and co. the only problem i had was with the weather but the airline wont take a dog unless a certain degree. but at far as getting there when it was warm enough it was fine.

    You might reach out to BRAT and ask if they have any foster's in your area that would dog-sit for you. They seem to have Basenji foster parents in every city, so they are experienced with Basenji's and would be able to adapt to short stays. Offer a "donation" of sorts and make it very clear that you are not surrendering your little lady. (worth a shot)

    thanks @DebraDownSouth I plan to take him to small claims. I don't want to spend any more time on this, but I also don't want others to be victimized by the same scam.

    Ready to commit myself!!! Hahaha.. Alleycat- so incredibly adorable, I love the look on his face in the first one…might be a hint of mischief in there?! Lol The little black and white bundles get me everytime! I fell in love with breed and wanted a red and white...but after receiving Oakley...it's hard not to have the black and whites melt me. Take lots of pics, it goes by quicker than I remember thinking it would. Love his wide white stripe and his little white mitten foot in the back...he looks overall to be a "cool, laid back type"?! Perhaps it's because I was so used to the panic look as Oakley was panicked by many things back then!

    Our mail man had Basenji as boy growing up. He never really say much drop mail but a short time after we got Jaycee he seen her at door. Jeff is his name knocked at door and ask if he could see her. That may have been best thing that ever happen. Jaycee waits on Jeff everday and always happy to see her. He told us here week or two ago he and his wife never had kids at least not yet he said he would claim Jaycee. Rita Jean

    @snorky998: Saw a young male in Milwaukee on Saturday walking near the lake front toward the Circus Wagon Parade grounds. We were stuck in traffic and could only yell out the window to say what a cutie he was. Was accompanied by a male 2 legger and another small dog. Anyone from the forum? I dunno, but "male 2 legger" made me laugh! :D
