    i've alway hated the arguement that buying a dog from a breeder means a shelter dog looses a home. (not that dr mcconnell mentions that, but i hear it so often.) if i only had rescues, i'd have one maybe 2 dogs. as it is, i have 4, but one is a rescue.

    I am very lucky, I do rescue and have support of many of the PNW breeders. I also have a very responsible breed club who take back any basenjis I find fall into rescue.
    I am also able to refer folks to quality breeders who have puppies, who don't want a rescue.
    So, win/win…and best of all the b's WIN!

    Hmmm… seems like we need a 23andMe solution for our pups. How bout we call it K9andme. I can remember most of my pups markings and have 100s of pics to refer to. That said they do change pretty fast. Our pup D’Otto was a split head with a nice dot right in white. It started as a dot and it’s still there! But it’s a bit more of an oval these days.

    @jengosmonkey LOL.... that is what is happening... and people fall for it... don't do it... too many scam sites... and the pups you are seeing are pup's pictures that are stolen from other sites... these are not real... the posts that I have made and insisted that I would not be interested unless they supplied sire/dam names and the conversation has gone "dark"... and they have not and I am sure will not supply the information I have requested... DO NOT send money, do NOT believe their information.. these are scams... period

    @ashleyalanej Oh, that's awful. I took my pups to meet my vet a few weeks ago. She was telling me that she's seen a rise in Parvo this year as well. Scary stuff.

    I sent the earlier version of this book home with my puppies last year. I think it is a good addition to a new puppy owner's library.

    I know that picture of Bing well - it hangs in pride of place in the hall. I can only guess how you came by it as I would think his breeder would have been the only person we gave a copy to! Thanks for the info re Fanconi. We will obviously keep that very much in mind.
