    • Animal crualty case in norway involving basenjis

      I dont know if anyone here knows about it already - but here in Norway now we have a case going against a former breeder and dogowner - she has been charged on multiple cases involving negelct and and cruelty. Last monday the official verdict in the first trial was the she is never to have dogs again in norway, 60 days "in jail" (she wont have to serve them in jail), and 2 years probation. She is going to apeel - or have all ready done - and is convinced that she will get cleared off all charges.

      One and a half years ago animal controll took all her dogs and replaced them and had to put some to sleep due to untreated illnesses and agression. I'll give more details after monday. Last fall there started to show up dogs on her property again, she was doing a "rehoming service"… Some of the dogs just dissapared and noone knows what happend to them , we can only imagine.

      Well - to the point: 25th of november 2009 animal controll and the police went inn to retrieve all the dogs at the property, inkluding a basenji female, a basenji male and a litter of 3 pure breed basenjis. She is banned for the norwegian kennel club and therefor the puppies does not have a known pedigree.

      Some days ago the puppies and the male was found on the internet for sale. It turned out that she had a deadline until last thursday to rehome all of her dogs or she would have to sign them over to animal controll, and the new (stupid!!) laws in norway says that when animal controll gets ownership over dogs they can not (and this is just insane) rehome them without the previous owners blessing. Their only option is to put them down.

      We just could not let this happen... So me and some other basenjifriends - inkluding a girl who bought a puppy (not basenji) from her years ago, gatherd some people and mony and have bought out one of the puppies (a tric girl) allready and I am goin up there on monday to retrive the two other puppis. A red girl and a tric male. We have allready got a new home for both girls - only need a new home for the male. So he is going to live with me untill we can find the perfect home (or untill I can't let him go).

      I don't know if we are doing the right thing, giving her money, but we could not se any other option. The money we give will no doubt be used to try to get her cleared. But if justice winns she will never, ever, own another dog in norway. Hopefully they extend the sentence to include all living animals...

    • Kasko says hi (warning; lots of pictures)

      Long time… So we just pop in to say hello with some new pics from Kasko.

      We have moved and this is our new paradise:

      He is now 7 months old. And, if I may say it my self - he is pretty! And silly:

      Buddies:

      Relaxing in the sun:

      He thinks he is twice as big as Kahlo…

      Got it!

      Miiine!

      Kasko has found a new friend, my horse: Lady

      Where there is food, there is Kasko:

      If I just strech…

      and grab…

      Got it!

      Yummy, apple with horse saliva:

      I have open my home to rescue kittens, homeless and born in the wild, so they'll stay with me untill we can find them new homes. And of course, Kasko had to meet them:

      "What is that? Its not a dog, and not food…"

      The kittens are tiny…

    • Kasko update

      Kasko is getting big. He is 5,5 months old. His new nickname is "vepsen" Wasp in english. Why? Because he sounds like one when he is tired. The fact that Kahlo is 4 times bigger than him dosent stop him from trying to attac her when he is tired. Fortunatly Kahlo is gentle with him and we are getting the problem under controll.

      So, more pictures:

      He is 4 month on these pictures:

      Truls hunts Kahlo, Kasko hunts Truls:

      He wants to be a giant when he grows up, so he has to practise:

    • RE: Animal crualty case in norway involving basenjis

      That is my hope too, that she at some point will realise that she needs help, and then maby someone can help her.

      It feels a bit useless to save the basenjis when she just went out and got some new dogs - but for the dogs we got away from her, it probably made the difference between a life in neglect and a good life, so then it was worth it.

    • RE: Animal crualty case in norway involving basenjis

      I know for a fact that she has at least 3 dogs - rumor has it that it is 6 or more. I guess she has a timelimit to rehome them or leave norway or else they will be removed from her, again. I'm starting to feel sorry for her, she obviously have no idea that what she is doing is wrong… its just sad.

      Just the idea of breeding a 6 months old bitch with her own father... I'm out of words.
