Noel


  • @AJs:

    Did you meet the dam when you got your puppy? Have you tried the dam's parents? Some of the AKC members here might be able to run her through that website. I think it requires membership to use. What was the dam's name?

    Did you find the sire?

    (Sorry, Nemo…we responded at the same time.:o)

    Anyone can use the AKC site…you might just have to register to do it.

    Note: My typing teacher would be proud. :)


  • Anyone can sign up for a free account on AKC's website. Once you have an account you have to go to the Store then click the link for Point/Title Progression and you will get the screen where you can search for dogs by name or registration number.

    If you would like, you can send me Noel's parents' names and I can search for you. I use the AKC site a lot and already have an account.


  • @Gabriel:

    Strange….I put the name of Noels mother and nothing came up....There was zero matches.

    Are you sure that she is AKC registered (her sire and dam?). The registration number would be two letters (HP) then 8 digits


  • I agree with AJ that dogs can show characterstics of gigantism like humans. My pure bred male is 19inches tall and at 35lbs looks underweight. He is way outside the "norm" for height and weight but none the less he is basenji.


  • My female was 32 pounds:eek: She's now down to 28 but still looks stocky. On the other hand my male is 28 lbs and is at his perfect weight for his frame and age. You might just have a tall girl. I, on the other hand, have a "big boned substantial woman" that likes the extra nosh or two (or three) and has to watch her weight constantly:D


  • She looks like a mix to me.
    She's a very pretty girl!


  • She looks happy and loved very pretty who cares about anything else.

  • Im guessing she is a full Basenji


  • @Rita:

    She looks happy and loved very pretty who cares about anything else.

    Rita Jean

    My sentiments exactly.


  • It would be interesting to hear of her AKC info….

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.
