    I am new to the site. I am picking up my baby Cheyenne on the 27th and can not wait to get her home. Wanted to stop by and say hi. I have own a Basenji before so I know what they are like but wanted to get in with other people who have them and see what they have to say..

    Wonderful and as always the first thing we want to remind you is that you hopefully check the Fanconie Status of the sire and dam of your puppy before purchase - and that the information is public and on the OFFA.org website.

    Looking forward to pictures.

    Do you mean paperwork that said they are clear of Fanconie Disease or do you mean registration papers? Not seeing any pics but the internet reveals things in it's own time - LOL

    I just peeked too, and she is precious, that's for sure!
    They look like such angels when they are puppies that they really do look like babies. :) It's that innocence that captures our hearts and will later make us question our insanity, lol.

    Hi re Fanconi,
    if you go onto the http://www.offa.org website you should be able to see the status of Cheyenne's sire and dam and hopefuly the pups too.
    You could also ask the breeder if the pups have been tested but the reccomendation is to check yourself as well on the ofa site.

    I will be looking into it. I am at work so I will have to check when I am out of work.. got the site saved looking to get all the info I can before she comes home.

    I look forward to your pictures. I'm a technophobe too - I keep telling myself I can do it but so far haven't posted any. One of my bitches was spoiled for the show ring by such a judge who didn't know how to approach a hound (although he was a Saluki judge and should have!). She was experienced at showing as well but was traumatised because when she backed away at his front on, silly voice approach she nearly fell from the table! Of course she blamed the fall on his approach. I worked on her intensively but to no avail. Yes, Basenjis on the whole are friendly and they never forget a friend either!

    I agree with the others that this is not a common practice among BCOA breeders. I am sorry that this happened to you and yes, you should get your deposit back.

    Welcome and kudos to you for helping with rescues! It sounds like Kowboy was a great introuction to the breed. I'm sorry for your loss of him and Indy. this is a great place to share and keep memories alive. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a speedy relocation back to your family in CA!
