  • My Husband, Basenji and I live in Ne. USA . not to many basenji around here , I am retired and my husband is soon to be retired also. We have had our Izzy for a year and a half it has been up and down but we are holding in there . Some days he is an angel and sometimes not. however our furniture is still in tack, except the cushion on one chair, but took care of that easily as I did Upholstery for 38 yrs. just happened to have a piece of that material left. When we first brought Izzy home , if you were eating something he would go for your face . He as gotten over that now and sits patiently on the floor and takes things nice if you tell him nice. We don't ever let him have run of the house when we are gone and probably never will. We would like to take him traveling with us but don't know if that will ever happen. Well that is a quick run down of our little( Angel) LOL. Later I will have some health questions to see if anyone else has had the same issues. Hope this post haven't had any luck so far. WAs going to send a picture of our Izzy but haven't had luck at that either.

    StevH - lovely pictures. I hope the problem is not as bad as you imagine and that it is treatable.

    She has been fixed. As for the falconi, I dont think any of the basenjis that I have have every been tested for it. as for the country hounds and hearts place. I went by the address listed on the site and it appears that no one has been there for a while. Very scary looking place.. overgrown, strange smell, fence pieced together with kennel/crate doors, vacant car. I called the number and it was disconnected and I tried a second number and have been waiting for over a week for someone to call back. We are going to give it the college try to get her "normal" but I want to make sure that I am not doing her a dis-service. I have time before we are slated to move but I also want to make sure that she would be happy. I know deep down that I have not been a great owner to her but I love her very much and don't want to see her harmed in any way. Thanks everyone for the coments and suggestions

    Welcome, Andyboy! I too had see the movie and loved it as a kid. I haven't seen it in years so I don't remember it. I have the book though and plan to read it with my daughter this summer. The movie introduced me to the breed, but it was ultimately allergies that led me to own one, much like JazzysMom. Enjoy the forum…I know I do. Post more pictures when you can!
