Hi all.
I just got back into town.
I know BRAT does not "buy"dogs, so paying for this dog will have to be done by folks who care what happens to him. It can't be BRAT related.
I will take him into BRAT's care once he has been screened by a foster home.
So he does have a place to go.
So, its a matter of discussing this with this "owner" to see what price she will sell him at.
Now, I did send her all the BRAT info and the fees we charge to adopt b's out to folks.
She wouldn't turn him over, so I asked her to take my info and give it to the next family so they could contact me when they had basenji issues.
I need to get up to speed re this being still availible.
You all can send funds where you wish, if someone has a pay pal acct, that would probably be best.
I will catch up this weekend. -

I just realized how stupid that above post was.
SIGH!
Yes, BRAT does buy puppymill dogs with the board approval but that is a case by case thing and not done as a matter of course.
This boy, if he is still not sold will have to be done by private members who care about this boys future.
I just felt I needed to post this so we are clear this is a nice group of folks who are donating to this boys fees and not a BRAT project.
Hugs to you all. -

Okay, we're set up to go with this boy . . . I have recieved $150.00 thus far into my paypay account.
For those of you who offered to donate, you can donate through PayPal to the email address darrenturner@wavecable.com.
I know I should have held off until I had all funds on hand, but I was also working on my friend's schedule, and she's out of town quite a bit..
Can I get a quick recount of those who intend to donate?

I plan on sending money tomorrow while at work. Although only expect $10 from me. I wish it could be more. Hopefully other people will pull through though so we can save this baby :)

Every penny helps, so we all appreciate every contribution.
PayPal is up to $240, so we're getting there!
I'm getting excited….almost as if I'm bringing this little boy home w/me, LOL, but dh has made it quite clear that I am not! ;-(

I have to say that you all are wonderful.
We have the foster home set up for next sat, that is the day of "sale".
I am hopeful we can post some photos soon and give a nice report of this b's temperment.
Hugs to you all.
THANK YOU! -

Well, I have $240 now, and am expecting $35 more tomorrow….
So, that'd leave $25 still needed to hit the full $300.

We are still set up for this coming sat.
I have someone who will do a short term foster until Lisa, the long term if needed, foster is back into town.

We are a go for this Saturday afternoon!
I'm taking Keoki and/or Jazz to see how they interact. Hopefully, they'll play well together.
I'm excited! -

This is awesome. We should start a sidebar to BRAT where we can do these types of things on a regular basis. I'd certainly like to put money I donate annually to a cause that is 'closer to home' for me - something like this.
:)
Otherwise, I'll just send $$$ to Brat!

This is great news!
We are currently working with BRAT (Sharron) on setting up a more formal process for fundraising for these types of events by BF members.
Please stay tuned for a post from us regarding fundraising.
