Hello all. My name is Danielle and I am owned by 2 Basenjis and 1 Rough Collie.
I am still eagerly awaiting the homecoming of Basenji number 2, who is still living with his breeder while we try to find a home. I'll post pictures soon.
Bungwa has a very dry mouth and I only managed to get a very tiny white patch on the test card but it was still sufficient to do the test with that. It only turns white when it's dry - the instructions are quite explicit. Of course as Pat says it could be a bad test form.
I agree with the others that this is not a common practice among BCOA breeders. I am sorry that this happened to you and yes, you should get your deposit back.
