We have one Basenji who screams if she is startled, a regular prima donna. She sometimes wakes up at night and howls like a wolf until she is consoled. Her mother is very calm about everything.
Help Make The Pedigree Database Complete
-
I would like to take a moment to urge everyone to go to Sally's Pedigree Database at http://pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com and see if your basenji(s) are listed. If they are missing please post the following information either in this thread or you can PM or email me the info so we can get it into the database.
Sire's Registered Name
Dam's Registered Name
Date Of Birth
Registration Number
Registered Name
Color
SexThis is an invaluable resource for the basenji community and we are so lucky that Sally makes this wonderful resource free for all to use but it relies on all of us to submit the data.

Great post Ivoss. I would like to add that if you do send info to Sally to please be patient that it can take a little bit of time to get it all updated.
And you can send in pictures of your dog also.

For sureā¦ great post....

The database is a wonderful resourse and we are so lucky to have it.
My first Basenji was a rescue and Sally was able to give me his five generation pedigree. -
Just want to echo what everyone else has said - great post Lisa.
The database is a wonderful resource and it is incomplete if your dog isn't listed in it.
It is wonderful that Sally has created and updates the database for the basenji community. -
I agree 110%, love to go on there and just scout..Sally has done a wonderful job, not all easy either..if you have information that can help the database along, please send it forward to help the database, the breed's pedigree and all of us that loves to just look at pedigrees and pictures from way back when..
Thanks for giving it a heads up Lisa.. -
Perhaps we should have them add the breeder's name as well? I know it's not posted on the database itself but I believe Sally keeps records of it. It's another resource for rescue.

Sally has done a wonderful job in starting and keeping her database up to date.
and its especially helpful in tracing overseas registrations. I reiterate Ivoss' plea to send in your details.Over the years I've kept my own handwritten details of UK Basenjis and find the website extremely helpful when updating it. Sally is wnderful!!

Having the breeder info is great and Sally does track it and it has helped to reunite dogs with their breeders when they have turned up in rescue. Also, if your dog was never registered it can still go in Sally's database. Just include as much information as you have.

Often you should be able to tell the breeders name by the name of the dog because it is included in the dogs registered name. For my dogs name is "Maly Ksiaze Next Germanika," His breeder is Germanika kennels. His father is "Mutabaruga's Desmond Dekker" out of Mutabaruga kennels. His mother is "Art Of Noice Loango" out of Loango kennels.
So technically the breeders names are listed on the website. The only time you will not have breeders name listed is when they are BYBs, profit breeders, puppymills, opps litters out of those that may not fixed their registered dogs (not saying they are showing dogs), people who breed to "discover the miracle of life," and other things like that. Reputable breeders will REQUIRE that their kennel name is included in the dogs registration.
