Lost my Mo


  • So sorry to hear. Our jonny has gotten out twice. There is a giant clutching
    fear and a great helplessness. Good luck. Keep the faith!
    jonny did not go more than a block either time, and pretty much stayed in sight, and eventually let us get him. Boy was he having a great time! stinker.


  • A basenji here in Tampa was out for over a week, the media did a couple of stories on him (he was let out when they were robbed so was "newsworthy"). They also put flyers up all over. A couple out looking for their own lost dog spotted him in the rain and he came to them, they remembered seeing a flyer and contacted the owner, about 10 miles across town! Flyers, and more flyers, and much further than you think he could go!!!


  • Oh my goodness, I hope you find your baby soon. Our thoughts are with you!!!:(


  • we helped with someones lost dog put flyer in 10 block radius the lady who found her saw the flyer, just before they were leaving for out of state and almost took the friendly dog with them (major intersections with picture)


  • Hope you get you basenji back soon!


  • Keep getting the flyers out there - enlist the help of all neighborhood kids and teenagers - don't lose faith - hopefully your Mo will be back home safe and sound soon.


  • Is Mo home yet??


  • My Mo came home on Sunday; I knew right away something was terribly wrong. His tail would not curl!!!! I took him to the vet, at first she thought it was only a fracture, but after further examinations, it was founds that he was paralyzed, I am very sad to report that I had to put my companion to sleep. The vet was surprised he made it home. Mo came into my life unexpectantly; he was an adorable stray roaming around my friend?s neighborhood. We tried for three days to find his family, in the end, I kept him. I had never heard of the bread Basenji, but I noticed that he was cat like the first day (I had previously preferred cats.) He was my little buddy and I miss his corky ways, his smelly gas, and his insanely loud snoring.


  • @wizard:

    Hope you get you basenji back soon!

    Your picture is what Mo looked like.

    Thanks for all the sugestions, and support.


  • Oh Marlo, I am so sad for you - poor little Mo - companions are so lucky to find, so easy to love, so hard to lose, and impossible to forget - He is not paralyzed at the Rainbow Bridge.


  • Thank you for your kind words. Your dog looks like my Mo. He and I were so perfect together. He only wanted food, water, and love. My whole family is grieving, even my husband. I found Mo right before my husband returned from Iraq. He called two days before his scheduled arrival date, and I told him I had a present for him, a dog. I had put Mo in our bathroom, because he had already busted out of my screen window (I purchased him a name tag with phone number.) He tore up our new bathroom, I thought he was a goner, but my husband took one look at his cute face and could not be mad at him.


  • I am so, so sorry about Mo. I so hoped the outcome would be a happier one. Hugs.

  • Awww I so sorry for you and your family:(

    R.I.P Mo


  • I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for opening your home and hearts to Mo, I know he must have really appreciated all that you gave him.


  • My thoughts are with you, I'm so very sorry for your loss.


  • Very sorry for your loss. But Mo knows he was loved very much. He will also be missed by us all.


  • So so sorry for your loss.


  • My 2 b's pee on your best prices every day.
    You really have the wrong site.


  • I am so sorry to hear about Mo. My thoughts are with you…((Hugs))

    The email that I received from the owner said she returned on her own the next day. Like you, I'm worried that if my new basenji escaped, she wouldn't know her way home. :) BTW, did you know that here, in Florida, many of the county animal shelters contact BRAT whenever a basenji is captured? I think it is awesome that BRAT has such credibility within the animal rescue community, and it instills confidence in me that BRAT is thought of so highly….

    Yes, a dog getting home is always joyous. I just wish Rose Marie would tell us if the mom and puppies were able to bond. Kathy maybe you can find out if everyone is back to normal re dog and pups?

    The Ridgeback was found safe, not far from the hotel she went missing from. Other then some scrapes and bruises, she appears to be okay. Denise Como Wolfwind Gazehounds ~ wolfwindbz@frontier net.net For Book Titles ~ www.SighthoundsAfie ld.com
