When I responded and asked for more info, didn't think to ask if they had contacted the breeder. This is some of what he told me:
"She's spayed, but she is from a line of champions… Bushbabies line in fact..but we never wanted to show her, or breed her. She was just part of the family
...the reason I need to get rid of her... I have a 14 month old son, and (she) can get aggressive with him. He thinks she's the funniest thing in the world, but sometimes if she walks by him and he touches her, she'll snap and growl. And, if she's sleeping, she will snap at anyone who startles her awake. I just can't take the chance of her biting my son. She's nipped him a couple of times already, but hasn't drawn any blood."He also sent a few pix and she's lovely, but I haven't been able to figure out how to get them out of his email to post here.

If she is from Bushbabies, then she has a contract with Terri …. She needs to call her breeder...
do you have her direct email? Or a phone number? Name? If you go to my website www.tanzabasenjis.net you can send me an email direct with the information. I will also call Terri

Pat, we are mandated to contact the known breeders and if a BRAT rep feels they shouldn't, they have to present a very strong case to the board.
We do try very hard to get dogs back to known breeders.
As most breeders want to know and will take the dogs back, its a win/win for everyone. -

Yes, I know that, however there has been times when they have not because the breeder uses a kennel situation… which Terri does... and I don't believe that is BRAT's choice to decide or the person giving up the dog. Just an opinion... and an observation from past experience
I did send an email to the person that placed the ad with Terri's contact information

The Ca BRAT folks are working on this as well, so hopefully we will have some word soon.
I don't know Terri, but in my experence , the only time BRAT has not returned a dog to a breeder is when its a known puppymiller.
I am assuming Terri doesn't fall into this catagory.
I know some of the larger breeders do use kennels… -

Pat, did you tell Terri one of her dogs might be given away free?

As I said that I would before, I left Terri a message and email the person with the dog with Terri's infomation for them to contact Terri directly since there was no phone number. Terri doesn't do email very often.

Thanks, got it and emailed them directly with Terri's information to contact and also the other person in Livermore that might have been the breeder.

Just knowing folks who get rid of b's without contacting the breeders, mostly, they don't bother …or say they did when they didn't.
That is why I asked.
I can't tell you how many times I have found out who the breeder is, and asked the sellers if they contacted the breeder and they say "yes, but they wouldn't help".
Course, when I call the breeder, they had no idea their dog was at risk. -

I am assuming its not a BCOA member??They don't remember the name but it was two guys from the city who have since split up… so I am going to guess a BYB... that maybe had a "opps" breeding... and sold the pups

If you can get the full pedigree information, you might want to contact Sally Wallis who maintains the pedigree website. In her personal database she does collect breeder information when available. So she may have at least the names of the breeders and may be able to give them to you.
