    I just got a call on the boy Basenji here in Missouri and yesterday while one of people were walking him he got away. He did go home however they called and told them they were going to bring him back.
    Before my call a Tonya from BRAT in Mountain Grove, Mo had called and said she was looking for a place and would call them back. Tonya also told them to only walk him with a Martingale Collar.
    The lady I spoke with said if they bring him back he has to be heart wormed checked and all shots and fixed before he can leave.

    FOR ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE DONE THIS FOR SO LONG AND SAVED AND GAVE HOMES TO SO MANY. THANK YOU…...... Following is for all of you.

    I told the lady we had just gotten our Basenji In March however in all my years with different breeds I have never seen people care so much about there breed and to see that they got homes.
    She came back and said in all time she has done this never not once has any breed group ever called like the call from BRAT today.

    I ask if she kept records were she could call if they were to ever get another Basenji or mix Basenji and she took my name and number. I also ask her if she knew anything about them and she said no. So I told her if it was all right if they ever need someone to come and talk to looking new owners to call. I would come over and talk to them and tell them a little about Basenjis and forum for questions and answers. Just maybe if one left for its new home it would be forever.

    Again to all of you that have done this for so long. Thank You. Any of you know of Tonya in Mo?

    Rita - I'm glad you are concerned about the Basenji in MO. I was hoping you would be.

    When I said I was ready for another trip, I was kinda joking about driving to get another Basenji. I've driven all over the country to pick up my three little darlings…you helped with Rocky.

    It is always tempting to take in another one.

    BTW, I also use the shunning method with my basenji. He gets into everything and so I have to baby proof my house. Sometimes I leave a drink on the table and he tries to drink out of it and when I catch him with it, I let him know I am mad! I growl at him and then turn my back to him and he gets very upset. When he does anything I do want him to do, all I have to do is growl at him and he comes over to me bows his head and curls up in my lap. I guess it is an instinctual reaction to submit to his pack leader. He hates it when I ignore him in any way. He is funny, because he will sit down and look at me and whine or try to jump up on the chair with me if he thinks I am mad at him. Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk

    @BasenjiDiva: Wow, Vicki. Although we are down in Savannah, we also have a place up between Young Harris and Hiawassee. Maybe we could meet up sometime. Don't know how our little female hellion would do with your female though. Our male would probably be okay. Also would love to hear more about your petsitting business that you mentioned. When we are up there we would sometimes like to be able to leave for awhile without worrying about the beasties. Pat Hello - Yes, I would love to meet you when you visit your vacation home. razzcinn at aol dot com. I have two female Basenjis that are doing well together, but I, too, would be concerned about another female Basenji. Monday, I'm interviewing a retired older lady who pet sits and she will stay in the home all day and night, if needed. I need a dependable sitter, too. I often babysit for people who would like to go to dinner and get away w/o worrying about their pets. If I can't help you, I'm certain I can recommend several other dependable sitters.
