Basenji Talk

that is great news!!

will look into this, thanks

Singing??? I have never heard Jojo sing. She woowoo's alot and boy does she ever whine but I would like to hear her sing…can all Bs do it I wonder?

BDAWG– this is an awesome story. It totally restores one's faith in mankind!! And to hdterry - the hide a squirrels can be found here in knoxville at the agri feed on middlebrook pike. I now buy hollies food there and have seen the hide a squirrel!

That's funny. I can picture you and myself doing this. Hey extra 500 calories burned for the time..just in time for summer. Gotto look at the brighter side or we would all be BONKERS!!! I love these stories, reminds me I'm not alone. HAHAHA

Love your story and love your title, too!!

If he has only just started itching you may have caught it early. It would be better to have it checked out before starting to put things in his ears that could make the situation worse. Yeast loves damp dark environments.

A B that can think outside of the box, thats great! Mine has a little yellow raincoat.

Sanitized bone should be fine… however like you said, these days I would not trust the "goo"... .... especially now that they have found that for many of the foods that "claimed" they didn't have rice, wheat, corn as the protein source, they really did.... or on the package it was listed as "protein source" that turned to be one of the above glutens...

LOL…my B hides her rawhide chew everyday...she doesn't chew on it just hides it...what is she waiting for?? I have a bag full of them for her...silly girl.

I can picture them wrestling..LOL…send pix soon!!!!

Too Funny Billy K Thanks Christy I'll look up the thread :)

I think at this point it's not really a huge matter of whether your dog is African, whether you want to register w/AKC, {nor how much love you give him}, but of doing something to get a handle on this breeder. If she's not breeding well, and if she's passing herself and her dogs as something they are not, she needs to be stopped. And, as Tanza said, getting some picture as to the health history of your dog's family tree.

Yeah there are a good amount of them down here every weekend we see basenji's @ the dog park. I heard there are alote in New York too. They actually have a basenji dog park meet up I saw a picture on line and it must have been like 35 B's!

Our little girl came home at 10 weeks and had dirty ears. She then got some redness. On her vet visit they confirmed she had a yeast infection in her ears. Medicine cleared it up, and she's got super shiny ears now.:)

You can always check to see if the plant is poisonious or not on the ASPCA's website, they have a list of toxic things to dogs and if you are still concerned you can call the animal poison control phone number and speak with a vet on duty (know this from experience with my Fajita vegtable eating Puggle :( ) http://www.aspca.org/site/PageServer?pagename=pro_apcc

Sometimes I actually think basenjis have magic pee. The grass always seems to be greener in those spots. :D

Having your Basenjis get used to crates by riding does help…in the long run.. the start besides things like feeding them in the crate... to associate the crate with fun times.... and when you are at an event... the crate becomes as safe haven... and a place to crash... at our lure trial in March... Kobey was there.. I always have crates in my van... and with so much activity going on... Kobey was very happy to be in the crate and taking a nap....

Sounds great…looking forward to the pix...we always like the pix...you can't have too many
