Hello and new to Basenji's

    Good evening everyone,
    My name is Shell and just adopted what some people call brat. A basenji/rat terier mix. His name is Tag and he is 5 months old. The reason we named him Tag is because he is mostly black but has one square spot on his back that looks just like a price tag, Enhance the name Tag. I have a cattle dog that is just over a year old named Teeka and a pure bred mutt named Freddy. I am a foster mom to. So I have one foster named Bella who is a rat terrier.
    I found this group in the home that I will learn more about basenji's.

    So any info on this breed would be great.

    Shell Mom to my furkids, Teeka,Freddy and Tag

    Welcome, Shell. I love ratites, so a basenji-rattie mix sounds like a treat. Can't wait for photos!

    Before you get a puppy… go to the Basenji Club of Canada and Basenji Club of America websites and read up on Fanconi and other heritable diseases. ANY breeder not testing for these disease is NOT someone you should spend your time or money on one of their puppies. Too bad you didn't look 4-5 months ago... there was a lovely litter of Khani's pups up in Drumheller! Best of luck to you!

    Giza swam in the Atlantic once when we were out walkin' at low tide and the tile came in. The Atlantic in Canada is pretty cold!

    Yep, we do agree on most things (bossy? or boss?)(both I think-it has something to do with me being a control freak-I like orderly fashion). True there are some dogs/bitches that will just not get along EVER. If I do leave with dogs that typically don't get along-grouch,snarl,sneer,etc.-I'm sorry-but they're separated. Either in separate rooms or crates. If you can't get along when I'm here, then chances are you won't when I'm not!! I did train other people and their dogs (notice I put people first) but as you say-meager. Now I just train my own, the occasional consult and focus on grooming, and the B's. I would love to make a living with just dogs, but, alas, that is really hard to do!
