Meekha

Meekha is a two year old female Basenji mix. She is very loving to everyone and is positive that she is a princess. She is very cuddly and reminds me of a cat (enjoys sitting on my lap curled in a ball). She truly enjoys life and is a pleasure to have around at all times. She is great with other dogs, cats, and kids.

She has a lot of the Basenji traits, including yodeling and escaping. She has figured out how to climb or hurdle all fences (including electric fences). She really only yodels when she wants outside or food. However she has also discovered how to bark. She needs a family that understands that she can only be outside on a leash.

I would not be finding her another home if I was not transferring to a place that I can't take her. I love this dog dearly and want to ensure that she has the best possible family. If you are interested in finding out more about her please contact me at colliertoys@yahoo.com.
