The idea is to have bloggers post pictures and profiles of animals in need of a home and next week, Mayzie will pick 5 (yes 5!!) random "winners" out of those who participate and donate $100 (that's right $100 x 5!!) to each winner's favorite rescue group.
Well, that is a mighty generous offer and I couldn't resist throwing one of "my" dogs into the ring.
But who would I choose for such a special event? Since I volunteer with a couple of different rescue groups, I was having a real hard time selecting who I wanted to write about. All of our dogs are special and Mayzie didn't specify any criteria. I was just going to have go with my heart this time and pick one. That's when I saw her and knew who I had to spotlight this time.
The Lovely Kinja.
Kinja is a 12 year old, female Basenji looking for her forever home. Isn't she pretty? And so full of character. She loves people and is a bit of a couch potato (pretty unusual for a Basenji) but she does need some exercise and daily walks.
She is sweet, shy and very curious but not especially destructive. A backyard to romp in, a little playtime and a lot of snuggles would be just what she is looking for in her new family.
If you want to learn more about her, visit her profile on the Basenji Rescue and Transport (BRAT) website.
All BRAT dogs are spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated and tested for heartworm and Fanconi (strip-tested). "BRAT provides free lifetime post-adoption counseling to help deal with behavioral issues" as well as free lifetime identification connected to their own "lost-dog toll free number"! Yes, Basenjis are escape artists. ;)

Aren't they just the coolest little dogs? Thanks for fostering - they can be a handful so I'm glad you loved your's. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Roo, She is pretty, isn't she? And BRAT really is a top-notch organization doing wonderful work for these little lovelies.
