Happy Ending Story for Brody
We adopted a 16-month-old Brody in March 2006. He had not had
a good 16 months before we met him (abandoned by his first owner and then
mistreated by his second owner) but he was still loving and gentle.... He
instantly bonded with us as he road the 2 hours from our pick up site. By
the end of the night he was snuggling with us in bed and he still sleeps
with us (makes the rounds from boys room to our room) in the bed....
 He has
become a huge part of our family! He sleeps with us and takes care of us
when we're sick—he'll cuddle on the couch all day, if needed—he supports the
boys at the soccer field, loves to protect the house from those evil
fuzzy-tailed invaders in the yard (AKA squirrels), LOVES pizza crust, and
walking in the neighborhood and military park. He is such a cutie, sweetie
pie and he loves EVERYONE and expects EVERYONE to love and pet him. He has a
bandanna that reads "Don't just stand there pet me!"
Brody demands a 2-mile walk daily with his "mom" ... And let
me tell you he has rock star status in the neighborhood. Some of our
neighbors don't know our names but they know Brody's name! The kids love him
and have to pet him every time he comes by! One neighbor keeps dog treats
for Brody even though he doesn't have a dog himself. Brody is a great
ambassador for BRAT and the Basenji breed. He has stolen our hearts and we
cannot even fathom life without him even though he can be a BASENJI at
times.... He is very vocal and talks to us a lot which we enjoy...
He has blessed our lives in so many many ways.... And we
are very thankful to BRAT for introducing him to us. We are so enjoying him; my boys enjoy having a dog that is young and
playful, even though he has eaten his share of electronic cables and
controllers. I think Brody thinks my youngest son is another basenji litter
mate, LOL!
Well, I must go, the "boss" is banging on the front door. There are
squirrels to chase and bushes to pee on! Thank you for letting us share our
love for our special BRAT, Brody! Thank you to BRAT for bringing this
wonderful dog into our lives!
