    LOST DOG!!!! Dec. 26, 2006, my family was traveling along I-20 Westbound in Vicksburg, MS and we were in a car wreck. Luckily, my husband and I were okay. We had our 3 dogs with us in the car, and 1 of them, Daisy, ran away from the wreck scene. We have been looking for her ever since, but this has been hard for us to do since we live 400 miles away from where the wreck happened. She has been seen many times in Vicksburg by mile marker 6 through 11. She's been hanging out by the rest area, truck weigh stations, and the old cross-over roads. She's also been seen on Hwy 80. Daisy is extremely scared due to the wreck and has shown to be afraid of people, as she typically runs and hides whenever someone spots her. If you see her, please let her come to you!!!! If you have any information about her, please don't hesitate to contact me! We really want our Daisy back!

    I don't think they've found her. They put her on the dogster page as of February 13th… :( Sad!

    I've talked to the owner. They've driven from Tx back to their crash site at least 2 or 3 times. No luck yet.

    The local law enforcement has tried hard, but were not basenji savy enough to get close enough to her.

    They're hoping that she's found a new family.

    Fingers and paws crossed for Daisy - her people must be a worried mess. How sad.

    They had a sighting yesterday, and they believe that the dog has moved away from the interstate, and into the residential area of Vicksburg. She was seen with a pack last week, but was alone yesterday. They're hoping that since she's in the city now animal control will be more involved.

    Well, the lab I mentioned (chocolate overweight one) almost took me out by slamming into my knee. I commented loudly " he better not insure my knee!" No comment from the owner. Others were keeping an eye on this over exhuberant dog too. Many peeps were standing behind a bench for protection. What really bugs me is that the park has very visible signs when you enter it that say you must have control of your dog.

    Owning a basenji requires a good sense of humor and a large dose of patience and a willingness to do some creative thinking to convince the basenjis what you want is really the same thing as what they want. So true, never a dull moment with these dogs

    @red: They're all beautiful dogs! It just seems like yesterday you posting Daisy's homecoming pictures - She has turned into a magnificent young lady! Thank you! It was a pleasure meeting Mommy Michelle. Tayda and Lenny were amazingly well behaved with our meeting the week before last. I love that it's so easy to become familiar with these dogs . . . addicting, eh?

    Yes I agree Pat, Fort Funston could get very crowded and dangerous for smaller dogs as packs of bigger dogs playing could cause injury. My 2 Basenjis were very good and stayed pretty close to me and got used to the crowds. The only problem I had there was with this lady who had an older Tri color female Basenji. It would bite my blk/wht, Nika who was 1-1/2 on the butt. A few times of that and I stayed way away from her. The problem is Nika was a very playful girl and never did anything like that. A few times of getting nipped on the butt started her doing it to other dogs and Basenjis. A Basenji would want to play and Nika would chase and give a nip and the the other dog would get mad and a fight would occur. Nobody would ever get hurt thankfully. It was rare that it would happen as I took them there for 9 years, mostly on the weekend without problem. We had a lot of fun and people loved the Basenjis! Ringo, the red/wht was a very entertaining clown when we'd go down to the beach.
