Found Basenji in Northern California


  • A red and white male B apparently wandered onto a ranch in Turlock, California - about 1.5 hours south of Sacramento. BRAT has contacted me about helping out w/ this dog and I am thinking about helping to transport and maybe fostering him if he and Lenny can get along.

    I'm getting more details but would be great to find his rightful owner!


  • Maybe the b' has a microchip?


  • Not sure - if I get him I can take him to the vet to check. BRAT rep down here is getting more info for me so we can see if it might be a good fit for us to foster.


  • Michelle -
    are you now in california? (otherwise, i'm really confused - i know, i should be used to that by now)

    yes, she moved :D:D:D


  • LOL - Yep! Moved to Sacramento in March! I've been kind of MIA on the forums - it's been a crazy few months - got married in June (in Michigan) and have changed jobs TWICE since being here!

    Just changed my sig and location - so now I'm "officially" in California! :)


  • Welcome to our coast…we can sure use you!

    Thanks, i was wondering why someone in Conn was going to foster a found dog in Cali. Is it strange for you with the water being on the wrong side and all?

    congrats on your new marriage and new jobs

    A good "safety" exercise to practice is a command that tells your dog treats are in the offing, and use it at irregular intervals when you are walking. Combine the command with a total release of pressure on the leash, preferably when your dog has firm tension on said leash. Then if something unexpected happens you have a built in reaction of the dog to look to you for a reward. This won't work if your dog is pursuing a major distraction, but should give you an edge if you have an equipment failure in otherwise neutral conditions. (you can carry this one step further by "accidentally" dropping the leash in a controlled area, or with a light line attached for safety, and practice until the dog turns to you when it feels a total release)

    I heard back from the finder this morning. She says his face looks like Basenji, but his tail is long and straight, not curled. So she thinks he might be a mix. Anyway, she is going to take him in to the vet to check for a microchip, and will hold on to him for the rest of the week. If he isn't claimed, she says she will contact BRAT. Terry

    Did Destro get home? I used the LostMyDoggie.com to place lost pet alert phone calls to 250 of my neighbors. I have not had any luck in finding my Dot yet (she climbed our fence on August 17), but I received several phone calls from people in my area asking about the basenji breed. It offered me some comfort and I knew that there were a lot of people looking for her. I will keep looking for Dot. I have gotten more search ideas from this forum tonight to help me. Please don't give up on Destro. They must be with some good person just out of our reach, so we have to keep looking a little farther away every day.

    Sonic has been found in the area he was lost, according to a notice on B-Pix last night. He is home safe and sound.
