Hi from Northern Minnesota!

  • Welcome Kristie and Kyro, he's a lovely looking pup, just a bit older than ours.

  • Oh, please do share his background. Some of us are "related" by dogs…always fun to find new unmet relations.

  • Welcome to the forum!

  • Welcome to the forum Kristie and Kyro..He is adorable.

  • hello Kyro and Kristie - you've landed in the right place for "all things basenji". Welcome!

  • Thanks everyone!! I did a lot of research before deciding on a Basenji, but I am so glad that I did! He is an absolute doll and I look forward to many years with this little guy! I bought him from a woman in Iowa, her name is Kara (Karazels is what is on my registration paper) She doesn't breed dogs professionally but just has two basenji's in her home. Kyro was one of 5…I don't know a ton about dog pedigrees (yet) but he has a lot of Kibushi, Hacker's and Akuaba's in his pedigree if anyone is familiar with them...I think there are 19 champions total (combined on sire and dam's side) I have both pedigrees in detail if anyone would like to know more about his breeding! I am very interested in learning how to show and handle dogs, and anything I can about this wonderful breed! I look forward to keeping in touch :)

  • Welcome to the forum! He is a cutie.

  • Could you please provide your puppy's parents names and his registered name and DOB so he can be included in Sally's pedigree database, http://pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com

    Were his Parents DNA tested for Fanconi? I am very familar with the Kibushi, Hacker and Akuaba lines and there has been Fanconi in them.

    I think they just look solid so my mind saw "bigger." I have one of the Wimaumau rescue giants (44 pounds), but even my 2 previous gals were far from petite... about 26 to 28 pounds. My dream of a petite 18 pound basenji just never happened, lol.

    A tired Basenji?!!! Joking apart, I agree with the previous posts. It is really important that she doesn't get something for nothing as Wizard advises make her work for it. Welcome to the Forum to you,Teagan and the others.

    Thanks, I will pickup some SAM-E at the store today, I had no idea what dose! I hope Pete has a comfortable time with you, you are doing everything to keep him happy. My friend's mastif-dobie mix has very high liver enzymes, she is 10 and otherwise looks great. She is slowing down, sleeps a lot but has good appetite, etc., he opted for no more tests (at her age, he would not put her through any treatments other than meds). She loved the liver-cleansing diet, is back on regular now and taking Sam-e; like you, he is just hoping for some good quality time with an older beloved dog. Hugs to Pete!
