• I NEVER thought about the consequence of having a drooly dog with a Basenji…OMG..yup, I can just see them trying to 'clean' the drool all the time...sheesh!

    He is super cute! Congrats 🙂

  • First Basenji's

    Yes, actually a Bernese Mountain Dog, and true to the nature of things, he is very gentle. I wasn't sure if my Uzie was extra thirsty, liked salty drool or what!? Anyway, I will look into the test strips to check the sugars in the urine. I have read the protocol by Dr Gronto (sp?) concerning Fanconi. And Debra Down South, I was concerned about a young B with Hershey the 10 y/o lab mix, but to my surprise, Uzie is quite dog savvy and not a dominant nature, so luckily it only took one growl from the old man to let the youngin' know he has to keep a distance- so the match was made in heaven!

    I have changed my avitar so that all may see the whole family, but I guess I will always be Buddy's Pal since he was the first to train me so well in Basenji! I can only say welcome Uzie, I will treasure you, and school's open!


  • Congratulations on your new addition. I'm so pleased to see how well he gets on with the others.


  • congrats - what a cutie!
    and i love the thought of a basenji being a drool-cleaner-upper! i love big drooly dogs, but am totally grossed out by them. but if suki could keep the drool under control….
    yeah, still i don't think so, but a good thought.

    What a lovely pack you have. Congrats on the addition!


  • Congratulations! Can't wait to meet your new guy, he looks great. And (ugh) Topper was a drool addict too, he loved Boxers, Newfies, etc, and licked their jowls clean, uuukkk!
    Total gross pout for me.


  • Very pretty Tri. Looks like he'll be happy.


  • wonderful! you know that color is called try-ing in basenjis? is that a swissy in your pack?


  • Drinking a lot of water could indicate a urinary tract infection.

  • Welcome. Thank you for opening up your home and heart to this basenji! You will find lots of friends on this site.


  • He looks right at home! Congrats! 🙂

    I wouldn't worry about him being a try-ing Basenji….yet. Paco's a tri and he's an absolute angel as long as he's been walked. 😉
