I applaud you for getting a rescue. There are tooooo many out there. For a first timer, an older one would be good, at least 18mos old or more where their personality is who they are at this age. Research all you can, and if you fill out an application and are denied, no not stop trying. I was denied by a Basenji rescue, and Uzie is my second where I found him right here 'free to good home' so we drove two days to pick him up and he is thriving without fenced in yards. (not for everyone as not everyone lives on 10 acres or more…I get this....!) but he has blossomed and doing well. So, don't give up!

How do you read Basenji Forums?
-
Go to the QuickLink to Today's Posts? Go straight to a topic (rescues, introductions, etc)?
I need to post a couple more questions/appeals regarding transport, 2-week fostering or kennel suggestions for a B I'm picking up from a shelter in El Paso, and was wondering if it would be better to post a Rescues thread or post in a more general category (like Basenji Talk). That got me to wondering how other members read the forums.
I tend to go to Today's Posts and scan. How about you?
-
I go to New posts
-
I go to anything marked "Today", and then will sometimes scan the topics for anything I may have missed in the last few days.
-
I go straight to Latest Posts on the bottom right.
-
I, like Pat, go to New Posts at the top.
-
I click on each forum that says it has been updated that day, and then just read through all the unread posts. Just like magazines I am anal about it, and read straight through from top to bottom

I go to new posts.

I look at each forum, and read the new posts. I also use the search mode if I am looking for a specific topic, which I find helpful .
