I posted private responses and forgot to update this thread. We have the application for IN Basenji Rescue and I've talked to them by phone and I think everything will be fine for Bingo to go there. I'm expecting to move in June-August…nothing is "signed" yet.
Yes…we have no other family up North. We hope to place the yorkipoo with a member of my wife's family in Texas but she hasn't asked them yet. The tabby I hope to find a home for here in Ft. Wayne with a cat lover by adv. and vets office. Why do you ask?
but good idea to contact them
Our family is breaking up this summer (daughter to residential college, no pets; parents to Zurich, no pets).
Bingo is a 13 year old purebred, red/white neutered male and mellow for his breed. He's always lived with we three very different people and will sleep with any of us or on a couch. His hearing seems dulled, and he has mild arthritis.
He's past the bad habit of chewing things but aggressive toward other dogs on the street (always walked on a leash of course). He lives fraternally with a tabby cat and a younger yorkipoo.
Bingo enjoys a fenced back yard but its freezing now. He'll follow the sun from the house windows and lie in it when possible. Mostly he sleeps. He hates being kenneled.
How can we best place him?
Please advise.
