welcome and great looking dogs. Your red really has a nice dark rich color (at least in the picture)

Hello and welcome. I'm sorry to hear your little b is sickly. I wish her a speedy recovery. There are some great folks on this site with some great and helpful information. Hopefully they can provide some insight to your little girl's illness.

@senji: Hello Basenji Boy. We are in Lancaster County. I haven't found many people who even know what a basenji is close by. I've talked to BRAT people in York but thats the closest. How cool, we're in the Harrisburg area. Post some pictures of your B when you can!;)

Hi Sue & Kayla! :)

She is darling and you are now OWNED by a Basenji!! Mine is a mix (basenji and whippet) and she still does the B500 through the house (furniture is ALWAYS involved). My Hollie only digs after seeing other dogs do it… a learned behavior(?). I agree with the forum members who suggest crating Abby, for her own safety and your piece of mind. Hollie has gotten out of the dog lot where I work about 4 times. She is NEVER outside without me now. I couldn't stand it if something happened to her. Good Luck!!

Please consider rescuing a dog from BRAT. http://www.basenjirescue.org/

He's beautiful!!

Congo is a great name. I wanted to call our dog Mutumbo, but the wife did not like that.

Good job on both your parts! I'm glad you're finally making progress.

Welcome…I spent about 3 months in New Zealand in 1995 (came when NZ won the America's Cup). Your pictures are beautiful and brought back a lot of memories. A perfect place for a basenji :)

@nala121498: Congrats and welcome, fellow New Englander! Looking forward to some snowy pictures if Santa brings you a camera! Thanks! I love Vermont, everytime I go there on the way to Canada, I think, gee, that is the way Maine used to be. :( I definitely need that camera and will definitely need to figure out the winter thing in general considering I run her on my bike now and will need to make up all that exercise.

Welcome…looking forward to seeing your family and hearing from you!

@ppuck: www.basenjirescue.us is the website address for Americas Basenji Rescue, but I was not able to access the website well–-it kept bumping me off. I emailed the director directly: keathrhymer@yahoo.com. Paula Website is not active

he might - about that last time at vet - it depends how he sits he looks bigger or smaller - he needs to lose a few - big back yard but they both just choose to sit on the wall or in the chairs instead of run around! i throw balls to myself and they look at me and tell me to fetch!

They are so cute! I hope they find the forever home they need.

Beef is low on the list of digestable meats for dogs. This will definitely trigger problems if he is not used to it or has a problem digesting it.

Really glad to hear you're healthy and welcome to the forum.. You have a sweet, adorable looking furry baby there.

@sircanda: Sally told me that Casia looks just like her grandma. I have seen the first photos when Casia was 3 hours old. She had the cutes face and almost looked like a Shar-Pei puppy. :) So i knew that she´ll be welcomed soon in our family (just had to convince Steve - which was done quickly). Yes the Zandes all have very distinctive heads which I like better than alot of the other heads in the UK.

I have a question though how do i post pics so that you can see them in the page instead of having to open an attachment ? :)

Thanks to all for your hartwarming welcome…. Barklessdog, I get you on the corny feet hahahah I smelled it...hihii still it's hardly an odor... Yes we are happy to bring our dog with us. We are not heading for the south but rather to the northeast to a place called Bibione... We might consider going more south another year...and meet up with Edward.... We do have a yearly beachwalk with only basenji's this year we cannot do it because walking on the sand would yet not be wise due to his bonegrowth... Kind regards to all of you!
