Pedro, there is some frustration on the forum of late. This is the time of year when puppies are ready to go home, and a lot of irresponsible breeders and new puppy owners with petstore puppies come onto the forum to ask the same questions over and over. They are normally just uneducated and naive, but its frustrating to the long time breeders on here to deal with this every year. They know the majority of those puppies will live frustrating lives because their new owners don't know what they've gotten themselves into, and a lot of those puppies will end up shuffled around between owners and shelters until they land in a BRAT foster home or a kill shelter.
Some of your innocent questions almost come across as somebody playing a prank and trying to provoke people. And even if the people come across to you as mean, there is still a lot of valuable information they are trying to convey to you. If they were truly mean, I doubt they'd waste the time trying to educate you. They really are trying to help, in their "mean" way, I promise. -

The problem is you are asking the same question over and over… and that is why should you not breed your dog. We have given you all the reasons why you would be better of keeping your current Basenji as a loved pet and if interesed in showing/breeding find a mentor near you and learn about the breed.

I said that because people are repeatedly answering your questions, and you are not listening to the answers. Mean people? Really…everybody who has answered you has put a lot of effort and thought into their responses, without insulting you or your dog. Mean would be to totally ignore you, and write you off as someone trying to stir up arguments.
Who here, posting regularly on this board, responding to this thread is breeding puppies and not fanconi testing? I am curious...

Numerous people have said this to you and I am saying it again, PLEASE READ THE POSTS CAREFULLY. The statement that was made is that some advice falls on DEAF ears. Most people who respond to posts begin feel that advice has fallen on deaf ears when the person who asked the question continues to ask the same question seemingly expecting the answer change. The post was also about forum threads in general. Many people come here not for advice but for validation and so when they do not get the answer they want they just keep asking the question hoping to find someone willing to validate the decision they have already made. That would be deaf ears.

Have you check www.basenji.org for a breeder near you, there are breeders in MI and states close to MI? Remember, many of us have mentors that are not next door… and sometimes you have to travel a bit...

If you're referring to my post about Lola's health testing, what I said was, all I know about her health are the results of her Fanconi test. Even though she is clear, I still spayed her. She seems to be in fine health from what I know just from owning her the last 2 years, but she could have other health issues that appear later in life. She can not be bred at this point, so no further health testing needs to be done as far as for breeding goes (although I may choose some health testing for my own piece of mind)
Callie comes from a reputable breeder. Both of her parents are from reputable breeders. Both of her parents have tested clear for Fanconi, but I still had her tested anyway just to confirm she is definitely clear. She has not had any further health testing at this point, but we are not currently working on breeding her. We are currently showing her and lure coursing her. Once she has completed some titles, we will do further health testing if we want to breed her. But she has a LOT to offer the breed. Multiple breeders and professional handlers at lure coursing and dog shows have complimented her conformation, and although basenjis have a reputation in the coursing community as being poor runners and nasty dogs, a judge complimented both her running style and temperament this weekend when she ended up being just 2 points shy of the winning dog for best in event. She also has the most laid back, even and calm temperaments. She gets along very well with other dogs, and loves strangers. She also comes from healthy lines. She has a lot to contribute to the basenji as a breed. -

LVoss offered to introduce Pedro to a great breeder in MI…and I can think of about five BCOA breeders right around the Detroit area...but they may not be listed in the breeder listings on the webpage. And, yeah...Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Ontario have a bunch of great breeders as well. It isn't hard to find a great mentor in our area, if you do a little research.

but wouldnt'i have to show him to have a mentor??.

The Fanconi test is not the ONLY reason to consider a dog for breeding. That's what everybody has been trying to tell you. Imagine there is a checklist for considering a dog for breeding. There are maybe 100 reasons on that checklist. Fanconi is just 1 of those reasons. There are still 99 other reasons why you may or may not want to breed that dog.

Go back, re-read the posts for understanding. And you will see that us suggesting you don't breed him has NOTHING to do with not wanting to show him. It has to do with not understanding enough about the breed, the health, the history, the behaviors….yet...why does everybody have to rush into things?
-

You can not show him, he is not AKC registered, so "no" you don't have to show to have a mentor….. Most people start with finding a responsible breeder, learning about the breed, getting a puppy and then deciding to show or working on an arrangement with your mentor to show him/her for you. And then after years of study, thinking about maybe breeding
