I agree, BRAT does get in pairs and ask they be adopted together plus BRAT works really hard to ensure placement are suitable and going to good homes. If your looking for a basenji savvy home them I would say "yes, getting the fanconi test will help getting them placed"…anyone not savvy or not caring to know about basenji genetic conditions won't care if theyre tested or not)
An idea to help BRAT-need help
-
Ok, I have spent the day cleaning out my den. I came across a couple of things some of you may be interested in. I have 22 issues of THE BASENJI from January of 2002 up to December of 2005. Also THE COMPLETE BASENJI by Elspet Ford. They almost got donated to the local Goodwill but I thought I should see if anyone here would want them. Maybe we could start a little auction or if someone would make a donation to BRAT I will send them these items. Anyway I am not sure the best way to do this. Anyone have any ideas how we can raise a little $$. I will be happy to pay for shipping if anybody is interested. Let me know what you think.

you could always try something like eBay?
-
I was thinking someone here might want these. If I am wrong no big deal. I dont need to raise money, just an idea. Maybe I should have said that if anyone want these for a few bucks I will donate any money to BRAT.
-
I would think that BRAT would love the books. Sharron, any ideas? Maybe a magazine could be given out with each rescue?
-
That's very nice of you.
Good luck. If I hear of anybody who may be interested, I will send them your way. -
I will put in a bid to start at $10.00
-
I think you can also put the item on Ebay and specify the profits to BRAT. Once you put it up, anyone from the Forum could bid, plus anyone else.
-
Really, e-bay is the best way to do it. YOU will get a lot of folks who might want to send you a nice chunk of change…Course, BRAT can always use it.
That would be my advice.
Once you get this site up, I will post it to the several lists I am on! -
Some years back, BRAT did a big fundraiser using e-bay. People donated cool things, sent them to someone who photographed them and put them up for BRAT auction. Please let me know if you put these on ebay, I would bid on the Ford book!

I think I will go for the Ebay thing. Never done it but always wanted to. Give me a couple of days to figure it out and I will let you all know.

I understand from someone who knows you can sell these items through Missionfish on Ebay.fyi.
