    Did she always have them or did they start after something/some time? Do antihistamines clear the problem?

    @serenjane My Kembe had the freckles on her neck - more pronounced in summer months w/ the sun and also as she aged. I use to call her my little 🦒 giraffe. 😂

    To give you an idea of the contrast between Basenjis and Border Collies, my BC once spit out a pill, I said "Blackie" in a disapproving tone, and he picked it up from the floor and swallowed it!

    @mryltis Read this comment from @morgansc within this post dated May 30, 2019, 7:49 AM. It answers your question. Ideally it is best to wait until age 24 months but no early than 18 months. https://basenjiforums.com/post/177284

    @tanza: Weight size, Keoki could use maybe a pound or two… but nothing at his age that I would worry about .... if he is eating well, I would just continue as you are doing... Thanks. Like I said, and is obvious in her photos, Jazz is just a stockier dog and I'm so used to that; I'm not sure what to do with a lanky one. He does eat very well, and is very active {also unlike Jazz, who has a moderate appetite and is quite sedentary, esp. for a Basenji}. So, I'll call it good for now. Thanks again.
