he is safe and sound and a pretty normal Basenji-neurotic but loving and at times weird. Our Female is from a puppy mill in Texas and that is another story!

Tank you for the pictures - I would never have guessed the combo - they look lovely boys though.

Greetings to you and Tank 🙂

Before you get a puppy… go to the Basenji Club of Canada and Basenji Club of America websites and read up on Fanconi and other heritable diseases.

ANY breeder not testing for these disease is NOT someone you should spend your time or money on one of their puppies.

Too bad you didn't look 4-5 months ago... there was a lovely litter of Khani's pups up in Drumheller!

Best of luck to you!

It was nice seeing you too Lisa…I'll see you that first weekend in July...Z & I are coming up for the LGRA and to hopefully get her qualified in NOTRA.
I'm really glad I found something to do with her that she really enjoys!

Kathy...I did know all that..but thanks for explaining it again.
I beg to differ about the stress level at a show and do believe they're wrong....but that's their rules and I have agreed to live by them. I'll eventually get another dog and try again if I decide to not have her re-instated.
Lucky for me, I can race with Zuni, do agility or Rally-O and Obedience with other organizations. Heck, I could even show her spayed with UKC if I get her reconditioned on the table. So, life without the AKC in this instance isn't the end of the world.

Thanks about the avatar...that's my two oldest.

Debra....shame about the rottie, you do have to wonder what goes on in their heads sometimes!
HAHAHA...love the toy story!!! How funny that must have been to see him coming back in to the moved toys!! And the chewing gum...now that is something!

Hi Moth, nice to meet you!

Well done to you and Maca as you've obviously sorted out the 'poo' problem. Basenjis are really very clean if they're allowed to be and I'm sure she appreciates you keeping her 'poo' area clear.

My heart breaks reading your wonderful story of Dinah - it is so clear she is a huge part of your heart -you will have such wonderful memories of her when it is her time to give up the pain. I also do not believe dogs don't have souls - of course they do - the unconditional love they give, the way they try to help when you are emotionally suffering, the joy they get when they see you coming after a separation - all these and more are proof they are very soulful. A loving companion dog is God's gift. All our hearts are with you, and our tears flow with yours. God bless.

Oh wow - your sheltie is gorgeous! Will go to the other post to see your new basenji pics.

Welcome to you (P…) and Benji, so pleased to see you on here!. I hope the seizure was a one-off but i'm sure you'll get plenty of valuable advice here if not. Do get in touch with M & L they have a wonderful vet for Skipper in Oswestry.

It sounds like a contact allergy to me. The dog's stomach is touching something it is allergic too.

Like Ruth said, grass or weeds that may (or may not) have chemicals on them.
The fabric of your couch or type of carpet you have
Cleaning products used to clean carpets or floors
Fabric softeners, dryer sheets, or laundry detergents used on the dog's bedding or other items the dog is frequently in contact with.
Topical flea products used on the dog
And the list goes on

I do not trust a vet who wants to hand out drugs and medications without attempting to find out the cause of the medical problem. I would recommend going to a holistic vet that will help you get to the root of the problem.

What a lovely dark brindle coat he has! Welcome to the forum!:)

Hi and welcome. I am East coast so can't meet up but would love to see your doggie pics and learn about you and them!

Cute! cute! cute!

At 18 months and 7lbs I very much doubt that he's got Basenji in him but who knows. It doesn't matter,- he's a delightfulchap and good to have you both on here. Looking forward to more pictures.

Welcome to the wonderful world of basenjis and the list!

So nice to hear that 2 more basenjis have found forever homes. 🙂

I found that most of the higher quality foods are sold as for all stages of life. My pups are doing great on Taste of the wild with raw twice a week.

i apologize, my wife has joined this forum too, and asking same question
her user ID is queendom.

today they have bath schedule, we will take some picture after bath. this is first bath since they arrived. the vet told not to bathing them for 3 days after they got anti scabies injection

Is Gloucestershire ready for two Basenjis, I ask myself? :eek:
