  • Thank you.
    We have had Great Danes for 25 years. We showed in obedience trials during the first 15 years. Earlier this year, we placed our last one on a farm in northern Indiana to get the work and exercise he needed.
    My wife has worked with the Schipperke rescue for 12 years. After we adopted Willow, we decided that we would also like to work with the Basenji rescue.

  • Though basenjis are my favourite dog breed, I have to say that I have always had a soft spot in my heart for the Schipperke. I like their size, alertness and the lovely shiny black coats they have.

  • I loved their pictures passed out on the couch! Welcome to the forum. Did you get him from BRAT? If not yell and I'll give you the contact if you need it (though you can just put brat basenji and find it to fill out application to volunteer).

  • Yes, we got Benny through BRAT. He was listed on the BRAT adoption page from Ohio. He was 8 months old when they posted him. When we got him he was 14 months old.

  • Welcome to the forum! When I was at the beach in San Francisco last summer there was a Great Dane get together and there must have been at least 35 of them. Buddy loves large dogs so he was in heaven! :D

  • Welcome to the forum

  • Thank you all for the warm welcome.

  • Welcome to the forum - it's always good to hear from people who take rescues into their hearts.

  • Dean, welcome to the forum.

    Welcome and so sorry to hear about the health issues of your two B's…. Thank you for opening up your home to them... And Thank Goodness we now have DNA tests for Fanconi so that no Basenji ever has to suffer with this horrible affliction.

    Bungwa has a very dry mouth and I only managed to get a very tiny white patch on the test card but it was still sufficient to do the test with that. It only turns white when it's dry - the instructions are quite explicit. Of course as Pat says it could be a bad test form.
