Hello from Hana's new family!

Member Introductions
  • She is a cutie and has absolutely beautiful markings!

  • Welcome, who did you get her from? Many of us are related by our Basenjis

  • I'm happy for you to be experiencing how great it is to finally have a basenji! Hana looks so pretty!

  • She is darling, welcome to the Basenji extended family.

  • Where are you at in AZ? There are several more of us in AZ on here who just got pups that need new puppy basenji friends.

    Pat, this was under the pic of her little girl:
    Fly'N Hi's Hana, female born Dec. 14, 2010
    Dam - Fly'N Hi N Kazor's Maasai Mara
    Sire - Avongara Ding of Brushy Run
    So, I'm guessing she's from Cindy Griswald. Am I right??? Either way, Hana is an adorable little girl and if she's out of Cindy's stuff, she's got some great potential to be an awesome little performance dog. And that, of course, makes my heart go pitty-pat. Welcome Hana and her family.

  • @Kirsten:

    Welcome! Love the action shot!:)

    Thank you so much everyone for your kind words! I hope I'm replying correctly ;)

    Tanza and Agilebasenji – yes indeed! She is one of Cindy's! :D Absolutely that whole realm of agility and lure coursing is fascinating. wish we were closer as we know nothing about it.... to me, if I were a basenji, THAT's what I'd want to do all day !! Too fun for words. :)
    Sire is Bev's from Arizona, he's 100% african line.

    etzbseder - I see you're in Tucson? :) We're in north central Phoenix. After the drive and back to texas, Tucson doesn't seem far away anymore.... hehehe do you know if all the AZ new pups are in your area or all over AZ? Would be fun that's for sure to get them all together! :)

    Kirsten - thank you so much! Those photos are cindy's! ;) Thankfully now she's here we can take all kinds of new photos! YAY!

  • What a great looking little girl!

    Welcome to the forum!

  • I imagine that Bev has already told you about this group, but just in case, there is a Basenji group in Phoenix: Basenji Fanciers of Greater Phoenix.

    We spend the winters in Arizona; unfortunately, too far away from either Phoenix or Tucson to make regular trips over for the get togethers (especially considering that diesel is now nearing $4.00 per gallon and will probably be well over $5.00 by next winter :( ).

  • What an utterly cute puppy! Congrats!

  • LindaH - oh I know…. gas is increasing like crazy!! We'll definitely check them out! Thank you so much! Looks like a lot of fun and a great resource too .... :)

  • Glad your here with us.

  • @sharronhurlbut:

    Glad your here with us.

    Sharron, are you from Poulsbo then looks like? My husband grew up in Poulsbo! Lemolo Point. Very small world!!!! :) I lived in Poulsbo too for a couple of years, very pretty town…. miss it.

  • Welcome to the forum! And congrats on your lovely looking puppy :)

  • Hana, I work in Poulsbo, and live in Silverdale. My folks had a small house on Liberty Bay. I cried when we had to sell it.
    Its a great town!

  • Welcome to the forum from the UK. What a cute puppy, I look forward to seeing more pictures.

    Hello again after a very long absence!! My 'chewing' boy now leaves his coat alone - his Mum (now spayed) wears his old hand-me-down coat, and he has his onw snazzy camoflage polar fleece jumper that I made. Can't possibly have it off thankyou!! His half-brother Jerry had his first coat on today - also a 'chewer' - we'll see if it is still on in the morning. Jerry's sister Chloe also got one on today after I managed to keep her still enough to pull it over her head!! Jerry is NOT allowed to touch it thank you!! @kiwir: The thing that annoys me is that he always wore a coat as a puppy - he's just turned 12 months now. But boys being boys, in the last few weeks he thought Mum had come back in season (she hadn't!) so in frustration he gradually chewed her coat - from the back forward - left the polar fleece around her shoulders and chest and neck. And the silly girl just let him - looking at him indulgently - "My boy" I tried making them without the polar neck (designed to stop chewing of the front) - or reinforced them with thick cotton tape - and that lasted a little longer. Now he just looks at me with those eyes saying "Hell, I'm freezing Mum!"

    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!

    Welcome to you and Snicker. I'm pleased that you said 'accident' - it's definitely not Snicker's fault. If you follow the advice gicven by previous posters you'll very soon have the perfect housetrained Basenji. They are generally very clean little creatures and in my opinion are the easiest dog to housetrain.

    @mauigirl: Okay I actually went and found the e-mail I sent in to order the collar. The collars are from Northwind Catalog. Their medium collar is adjustable from 10" to 16" On the first collar I ordered I requested that it be 3" smaller than the medium size (Zip, girl), and the second I ordered I asked it to be 2" smaller (Riley, boy, bigger). In hindsight the medium as is would have been fine. On both of our dogs the collars are adjusted to just about as big as they can go so 13" on Zip and 14" on Riley (his is snugger going over his head but still loose around his neck). And the allowance looks to be 3" (that extra loop in a martingale that make it instantaneously adjustable) Sorry that took me so long, I ended up staying at work til 1am that night! Thank you very, very much !! It's past midnight now so I'll check it in the morning. Greetz UPDATE : Yes, they are the right size !:D
