Please go to Basenjirescue.org and join as a member. It will show you are serious about helping. BRAT always needs good foster homes. A home visit will be required (not sure if that is possible at this time considering this COVID-19 crisis). It is especially helpful if you have basenji experience. Not always, but very often, a basenji coming into rescue has special needs (i.e., behavioral, medical, etc.). It is good to ask yourself if you and your family are willing to deal with that. Fostering is hard but it can also be a wonderful and rewarding thing to do.
Kentucky Puppy B-mix in DANGER
-
Just got this email from BRAT about what sounds like a SWEET b-mix puppy. If I could I would go get him but I just cant do it now. His story made me cry. Hopefully someone close can rescue this poor baby.
** DOG IN DANGER **
due to be euthanised on Friday, February 8
There is the sweetest looking basenji mix boy in Kentucky, and he is running out of time.
He is in Shepherdsville, KY at the Bullitt County Animal Control phone is 502-543-8686 contact person is Nancy Barnes NancyBarnes@windstream.net
This is his write-up from Dogsindanger.com
" This sweet little guy was picked sitting on the side of a busy road. He appeared to be waiting for his owner to return to get him. Little do these poor souls realize the owners never come back. He is a very sweet little boy that needs a safe place to call home. He is about 3 months old and already knows how to sit. He will be neutered and UTD on shots before going to his forever home."
You can see his page at: http://www.dogsindanger.com/dog.jsp?did=1201831920242
or I can send pictures.
Contact the shelter, and myself, IMMEDIATELY if interested in this dog. By adopting or fostering this boy you are truly saving his life. A reasonable distance transport could possibly be arranged if you are wanting to adopt or foster but are out of state. Let me know.

I so hope some one can go get him and at least foster him until he is into his forever home.

Me too!!!!! I would LOVE to foster a dog but with the newest addition we got from BRAT I just dont think he would do well with another dog at this point.

Wow…I don't see any B...but all pit-bull. Cute though....hope someone can help him.

REally? You dont think the markings and tail are B like?

Not really… but still cute... I would not say Basenji...

Well…lots of dogs have white in the same places as Bs...defintiely pitties. And the tail...lots of pits have tails that curve towards the back. IMO, not enough signs of a B to qualifiy him as a B-mix.

I don't see Basenji; never would have occurred to me to list it that way.
BUT, it is an adorable pup and I hope it finds a good forever home ASAP.
