Anyone know this breeder?


  • 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've sent money via Paypal. Hopefully you've heard from them by now.

  • @BasenjiDiva:

    Pat

    Yes, Pat, thanks. I've just gotten notification! 😃


  • I have sent money via paypal also…


  • As have I, and I've received your confirmation e-mail, JazzysMom.

    Crossing my fingers that all goes as planned!


  • 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!


  • I sent money as well. I presume it was received. I got confirmation from PayPal that it was sent, but nothing else???

    Oh, I'm sorry. I thought I'd emailed you directly.:(

    yes, I got your money.Thanks!;)


  • How much more money is needed? Vanessa and I would like to contribute.


  • Well, I have $240 now, and am expecting $35 more tomorrow….

    So, that'd leave $25 still needed to hit the full $300.


  • Just sent $25.


  • Thanks Nina and Alex; your contributions are in.

    Now, to get the gal to pin point a time…..


  • 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.
    JoNell, if your folks are all set, we are!


  • 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.
