@SethS Hi & Welcome Seth! Your new girl is gorgeous!! I just love the red & whites and the brindle & whites! My first girl, Darla was red & white so that color really tugs hard at my heart. My second, Dorie was brindle & white & now, brindles tug pretty hard at my heart too but, I know I can't have the darker brindle....too much like my Dorie. I'm not saying I'd get another red/white just because of the color.....there would have to be more than the color! But your new girl is really gorgeous!! I'm sorry about your other one & I'm sure that you look to see if the gate is closed now. It's sad that we learn a lesson like that but I bet you don't have that accident again! Congrats on your new sweetheart!!
No i'm not insane

Hi and welcome from yet another No. Californian…. If interested we would love to have you come and join us on June 6th for the Basenji Club of Northern California puppy match, club meeting, pot luck lunch, and lure coursing. Will be a fun day for Basenjis and their people.
Who is your breeder? Many of us have Basenjis related here on the Forum
My breeder is Ann Birk out of kansas. and that sounds like fun.. it it in the Pleasanton area? that's not too far… I would like to check out coursing for Jasper it sounds like that may up his alley.. The other two are couch potatos.. Jimmie was recently diagnosed with fanconi's and is responding well to treatment following the Gonto potocol....:o

Sorry to hear about Jimmie with Fanconi, glad to hear that he is doing well on the protocol. You should think about getting the other 2 DNA tested for Fanconi so that you know their status for the future. You can order the cheek swab test at www.offa.org (go to the link that is for DNA tests) and also by entering them on the CPP site, you can become part of the Basenji community tracking genetic concerns in the breed. We have had a DNA test for Fanconi since 2007 and all breeders should be testing before breeding so that we never have to produce another Basenji with Fanconi.
The event is in Livermore and more information can be found at www.norcalbasenjis.org Hope to see you there.

i'm not sure the couch saw him coming and quickly surrendered its stuffing…fast forward to today.. the funiture has been replaced sure it has come corners roughed up from Jasper all 3 get along.. and life is good. There is no tiptoeing through life when you own a basenji or 3 for that matter. I live in Northern calif and even though my dogs are not rescues i get together with the BRAT dogs for a monthly get together and let the hounds loose...
Oh well, you probably needed a new sofa anyway. I also have 3 badsenjis. Digital the brindlewonderkid is now 13, Jet the tri-ing is 12, and Zest the superstar in training is 3 (she's a r/w, the others you should be able to figure out). We also have Pearl-petual Motion, the malinois (malinut).
Welcome to our forum - it's a nice place.

Welcome! We have 3 too, and they get along great, all are couch 'taters too at 14, 12 and 10. Looking forward to photos of yours. Glad your boy is doing well on the protocol!

Hey 3basenjis! Welcome to the Forum and I am in the Sacramento area as well with 2 b's - one of them is on the Fanconi Protocol too! If you're interested could meet up and have a playdate sometime! Other Sacramentoers (Sacramentoees?) are welcome also!

Other Sacramentans. I live in Woodland, so not too far from Sacramento.
I am active in racing and coursing my dogs and if you are interested in getting started let me know and I can let you know what events I will be attending.
-
Sacramentans. There you go.
Hey Ivoss - I work in Woodland!
-
Cool! Where in Sacramento do you live? Natomas?
-
Yep, Natomas!
-
We usually go to movie theaters there in Natomas. It is a nice community. And it is not that bad a drive to many of the racing and coursing events that happen in this area if you ever want to come out. Though after this weekend it will be fall before they are around here since the temps normally start to really go up fast this time of year.

The next lure coursing event in the Sacramento area is in Dixon on June 19 and 20. I am attending a wedding in Southern California that weekend so I won't be there but they are usually people there willing to help a beginner get started.
