    Hello all! We'll be having a fun time in Calhoun, GA this coming weekend! At this point, there will be possibly 5 Basenji's entered with 3 in Open, 1 Field Champion, and 1 Veteran. Those I mentioned above will be there only Saturday and Sunday (not Friday).

    Would love to see more B's join us! For more info and premium, go to: http://www.gangcoursing.org/

    And it looks to be nice weather to boot!

    If you've never done it and are interested, come on out to see what it's all about! We can answer any questions you might have, and if we don't know the answer, we'll find someone who does.

    Hope to see you!

    Hlo buddy , if you not go there yet then i want to tell something. Due to the current COVID situation, a lot of the limited pet routes are not even flying. Working on getting a dog into the US right now. Domestic lines are not flying animals at all and the International lines have limited airports. I think five; JFK, Chicago, Dallas, Seattle, and one I can't remember. And cargo shipping will not be also an option as other members are also saying that. You need to check status for ground shipping. Check any service provider who done that in one go. Check Citizenshipper ground pet shipping and get enquiry about your condition. One thing is sure that you can let your lenny in airline with 22lbs. I can feel your pain. Check other options otherwise you might have to leave him or cancel your program Hope you get good alternative.

    See that is what I am dying to hear. we just got home and he made a really worried sound when we got out in the backyard. Come to find out Luna, our Schnorkie and Otis had been "playing" with one of our younger chicks that keeps flying out of the run…needless to say he was bothered by the fact that A) the chicken was traumatized and B) I was mad...Thankfully the chick is not hurt severly and will be Ok with some loving inside for a few days.

    Leaving the US you shouldn't have a problem at all with that size of crate, they really don't care as long as the dog can stand up and looks comfortable. I know Europe is a whole different thing, I'm not sure what rules are in Switzerland, but I know for friends that traveled to Germany the dog need a hands width between the top of their head and the inside top of the crate when the dog is sitting. For the UK is completely different and no part of the dog can touch the top of the crate, another friend moved to the UK and she has a mini Snauzer (sp?) and she had to buy a crate for a small lab or golden retriever (the size 6 from the link you posted) because her Snauzer had cropped ears and even though she was leaving from the US, she was flying on British Airways they wouldn't allow this little 15 dog on the plane without haveing this huge crate. Your best bet is to call the veternairian that works for the aiport you're leaving from or the airline and ask them what the regulations are for flying with your pet. By your post it sounds like the ears can't touch the top, is this right?

    After looking at the existing hound page on the AKC's website, (http://www.akc.org/breeds/hound_group.cfm), it's easy to see which other breeds the Basenji belongs with. The build of a Basenji is very similar to the Ibizan Hound and the Pharoah Hound - which will probably both end up on the sight hound group. I just can't see them in the scent hound group with the Basset Hound or Beagle! In the hound description, the AKC says: "Most hounds share the common ancestral trait of being used for hunting. Some use acute scenting powers to follow a trail. Others demonstrate a phenomenal gift of stamina as they relentlessly run down quarry." I can definitely see the Basenji fitting into the first and last of this criteria. Hopefully after getting all of the feedback that they have, they'll keep B's right where they belong - in the sighthound group!
