Glad to hear things have improved. If it was a partial blockage perhaps it has resolved, but I agree that a vet check would be a very good idea just to be safe.
Does your Tri Basenji like the sun or avoid laying in direct sunlight?

Our 2 RW's love the sunlight in summer, they settle nose to tail across the back deck soaking up the rays . In the winter the female, Bitty, hogs the hear registers, while the male, Mr. Baroo, sits anxioualy in front of the fireplace waiting for someone to start the fire.

My tri has thick hair so he gets heated up easily. He'll lay in the sun for about 5-10 minutes and then he moves to the shade. When we walk on warm days he has to stop and lay in the shade as the heat gets to him. He will not get under the covers and will happily go out for walks in the cold.

Zippy loved to lay in the sun. I used to go out to get her and bring her inside since I thought she was getting too hot. I was worried because she was older and had Fanconi. Most of the times she was sleeping.

First black basenji I had was 1 1/2 and my red girl was 14, on a walk he wilted way before she did and dove for shade. Mine tris & B/ W like to lie in the sun but come inside to cool off, red ones we used to have would be outside for hours. The black coat absorbs more heat than the red.

Kiora will lie in the sun for 20-30 minutes on a moderately hot day.

Over the years I've had mostly R?W but have definitely found that the tris , although loving the sun do get overheated and need to cool down more frequently.

Just thought it was fitting to throw These pictures into the thread!

my r/w seeks out the sun, lays on the cement in the sun etc. my tri girl joins her but for only a short while. but. in sayin that, its not really cold here and when we hav bonfires my tri girl loves to lay beside the fire whereas my rw girl would rather lay under the doona in bed. haha

Lysh- it's funny how they like one thing and not others, Oakley loves the sun but isn't a fan of fires….but I imagine if it were cold enough he'd warm up to the idea of at least snuggling with his mom by the fire..

Shaye loves the sun - will lie out in the heat for as long as she can get it. Gemma, being a basenji/sheltie mix and furrier, lies on the cool tiles on the porch, and when the sun hits her, she heads for the A/C. At the beach, Shaye lies in the hot sand in the sun until I get her into the shade, and because she is also a heat seeking thing, wants to be totally under covers to sleep at night. Stands to reason the tris and b/w's would absorb more heat and not prefer it as much as the r/w's do.
