Come join us in Calhoun GA for AKC Lure Coursing

Basenji Talk
  • 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!

    And although a black streak through the tail indicates the dog (or bitch) carries tri, its absence does not mean there is no tri gene. I have had tris from a bitch with not a sign of black fur in her tail, and actually no tris anywhere near close up in her pedigree. Whispering in their ears during pregnancy is no help either. Trouble was a lovely tri and we were so hoping for her to pass her color on in at least one son. So I kept nagging her - But no. Five red and white girls eventually emerged !

    Well I do think it would be good if someone found funding to bring in more dogs now, but I don't know. :(

    We lived in Davis for many years where there is only the public display but you can hear the mortars they use pretty much everywhere in town. We have been in Ventura for past couple of years for dog shows and they also only have public displays but they also have several shows within a 10 mile or so radius and the mortars are clearly audible. My husband and I strive to expose our puppies to lots of noises when they are here. We get the holiday poppers and watch loud action movies with the surround sound on so the pups learn it is no big deal, just everyday kind of things because you just never know when they may be exposed to loud noises again. Some people say they have good results playing the loud action movies on the 4th so that by the time the fireworks start the dogs just think it part of the show.

    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?

    @etzbseder: Did anyone else get the email about the new issue of the Breeder? The second story on the email has a picture of a basenji and is from Reveille Basenjis. Just wanted to point that out. That would be Damara Bolte, she is a officer of BCOA, besides a judge, breeder, handler…. The article was from AKC

    dmcarty, so sad we both lost Bs to U.P.S. I hope that people are paying attention so that it never happens to them.
