Susie
 Susie is a darling, red & white young girl who is looking
for that special place she can call her forever home. Since being in foster
care, Susie is learning where to go potty and her foster parents are working
with her on lead. This is all new to Susie, as she’s never been walked on a
leash before.
Susie is a talker and will baroo when excited. Unlike most
basenjis, Susie does not seem to mind the rain and will go outside despite
getting wet.
 Susie would do well either with another dog or as an only
dog. She loves kids and is beginning to take interest in the resident cats.
Special permission will be needed for potential adopters with children under
eight years old. She enjoys being around the other dogs but her heart is
with her person. If you think you could provide Susie with love, activity, and evening
cuddle-time, please read the data sheet below carefully, complete
the BRAT
adoption form (if you have not previously done so)
and contact BRAT coordinator,
Paula Nikonow. The coordinator's link will take you to a form that will
ask you your name, e-mail address, the city and state you live in, why this dog is perfect for your family, a
typical day in your household, and, if applicable, how you plan to
transport the dog. |

There is an adoption fee for this dog. This fee
goes to cover all costs associated with the care of current and future
basenjis in rescue. BRAT adopters receive a dog that has been spayed
or neutered, fully vaccinated, temperament evaluated, and tested negative
for heartworm and Fanconi (unless otherwise noted). In addition, BRAT
provides free lifetime post-adoption counseling to help deal with
behavioral issues and also provides a free lifetime identification tag
connected to our "lost dog" toll free number. |
