@Alex Always suggest that it is a male/female pair... of course it would depend on each disposition... but rule of thumb is male/female...so I would think that you might be better with one of each sex, that said, your breeder for the dobie can help you with that especially since Chance is older (way older... LOL) now and yes, always suggest separate feeding... I have always used crates to feed them in... But disagree that temperament doesn't matter in the beginning, but it can... so make sure that your pup has a good temperament and from a responsible breeder.
Pedigree of a puppy
-
I live in Europe and I have reserved myself a basenji pup from a breeder, known as good and responsible in my country, we have a good contact and I like her very much I'm sure puppy will be beautiful healthy and very basenji! Since I don't have a big understanding about lines, titles and pedigrees, I'd like to get your opinion, how does it looks (pedigree) - is it weak, ok, or promising, is there too much inbreeding, what's the bloodlines ect.
I'm trying to understand all those things, but I have to say - I am already in love with my little basenji girl, she's just 3 weeks old, and waiting is killing me! I'll add some pictures (that breeder sent me) when I'll figure out how to add them on this forum! :p
I really really hope I'm not mistaken about the breeder, since she's slowly becoming my friend thru all the basenji talks on phone and email..
