I think Tanza is spot on. Not sure where you are, but the Basenji Nationals are in Tucson in November. Assuming it's possible, I can't think of a better way to find a good breeder than to attend.

Congrats on your litter.
I see that the sire and dam have not been DNA tested for Fanconi yet? Are you planning to test the pups? There is Fanconi in both the Sire and Dam's pedigree.
-
yes, we have intention to test puppies:)

, this one is really great…. zazu, the first born male is all the time around alabama, kissing her:)
-
congrats on the litter! they look cute!!
I wonder why you havent tested the parents before you were going to breed them?
just wondering, no offence meant
-
well…we didn't plan the litter... it happened without planning it... but parents of didi (father) and alabama (mother) are totaly clean and healthy:) so, i believe, that everything is ok... and puppies will be tested:)
-
Congrats on your litter.
I've wanted to ask you what is a father's registered name?
From what I know on mother's side is tested only her greatgrandfather as a carrier. -

If you look at the pedigrees of the Sire and Dam of your litter (on Sally Wallis's pedigree site and at OFA) and none of the parents have been tested for Fanconi. So, you really do not know if there will be a problem. Both could be Carriers, therefore the offspring could be Affected. You might want to consider testing the sire and dam now and then you would know their status and the possibility of what the pups might be. You can order the cheek swabs at www.offa.org or go to www.basenjihealth.org

i was told by the owner of alabama that parents are tested… they are proffesional breeders... i don't know where you get this data... i just know what i have been told... all dogs are healthy, without problems... alabama's and aks (didi) parents and alabama and aks... as i said, puppies will be tested... they are only 11 days old now... i will check web sites you've sent.. thanks... but i would be really surprised, if proffesional breeders would not make all tests...
-
Pat got the information from the OFA website, http://www.offa.org All Fanconi results must be public, it was part of the agreement BCOA made with OFA so if a dog is not in the OFA database with a test result then they were not tested.
Here are the search results for the sire's (AKS) parents. Notice they are not listed in the results meaning they are not tested.
-
dear irena, father's registered name is AKS (we gave him name DIDI).
i see… what about alabama's parents??? they must be tested - as i said, alabama comes from proffesional breeder from hungary (her mother is from hungary, father is from poland)...
whatever...thanks for this info... i never had intention to become proffesional breeder... i just love my 2 basenjis and it happened accidently that they have puppies this time... i will check puppies - i think, this is the best way to avoid any doubts about their health... thanks for useful information again!
-
Can you repost her registered name and I will look her up and post the links like I did for Didi?

Thanks for your answer.
As lvoss and Pat said, all tested Basenjis are on OFFA site, if they aren't there they aren't tested. I know Alabama's father and know he isn't tested.
When you will test puppies you should also test your 2 adult Basenjis. You will have ceirtanty they are really healthy.
Good luck with that. -
hm…alabama's father is not tested?!? strange... ok... i think that the best idea is to test alabama and didi first... if they are clean, then puppies are clean, too... isn't it so? if not, then puppies have to be tested (all of them)... well... i was asking my friend here in slovenia about this DNA test... she gave me all instructions, how to do it... in 3 weeks i will have results (i hope)...
