Lunatic Basenji in CT!

    Hello All! we are new to this forum. I adopted my crazy Luna (actually she chose me!), from a local animal shelter nearly 6 months ago. I knew nothing about the Basenji breed and she is still slowing teaching me… ;) Luna is my first dog and wants to make sure that she is the ONLY child in the house. So far I have discovered that she loves to chase squirrels, tease birds and really hates cats. As for other dogs, she snarls, howls and lowly barks at them (she complains alot!) but after I scold her, she sometimes will let them approach. Sometimes she is a lot of work but I love my little 5yr Luna!

    I think by having a basenji or basenji mix for your first dog, what you are really getting is a whole semester of teaching in summer school condensed format!!!! Congrats on your new girl! She looks happy to have her own backyard! Stay tuned to the forum for 'mucho' information!

    As mine age I try to keep a bit of weight on them because I know they may reach a stage when they just don't keep weight as the organs weaken.

    It sounds like a contact allergy to me. The dog's stomach is touching something it is allergic too. Like Ruth said, grass or weeds that may (or may not) have chemicals on them. The fabric of your couch or type of carpet you have Cleaning products used to clean carpets or floors Fabric softeners, dryer sheets, or laundry detergents used on the dog's bedding or other items the dog is frequently in contact with. Topical flea products used on the dog And the list goes on I do not trust a vet who wants to hand out drugs and medications without attempting to find out the cause of the medical problem. I would recommend going to a holistic vet that will help you get to the root of the problem.

    I'm sorry for the loss of your dear Basenjis. Losing a pet is so difficult. I hope this site helps you through the transition. Welcome.
