Totally comic relief!!! I wonder if they needed some shiatui for muscle spasms? Someone asked me why a Basenji???? Hard to answer in a few words-and hard to answer if they have to ask that question!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RIGHT?!!! Duh!
New family member comming !

What a cutie! Have the breeders done any health testing on the parents?
-
Yes, please make sure the parents have had health testing, especially Fanconi, to avoid later heartbreak. Otherwise, she's very cute! and you're in for LOTS of fun.

The breeder has been breeding Basenji's since 1997 here in Portugal and she says all her dogs are tested and she never had any problem with Fanconi or other types of deseases ! The mother of the litter was imported from France and either the mother or the mother's parents are champion dogs in France ! I'm yet to know the family names and such but i have been told that her name must start with an 'O', at least thats what i understood as we only spoke on the phone ! I'm so anxious I can barely contain myself ! Wish me luck eheheh I'll defenetly keep you guys up to date on how she develops and everything she learns !
-
She is lovely! Wishing you loads of luck - I think she looks a bit like an Olivia…

Eheh its quite hard to pick an 'O' starting name for a girl, especially here in Portugal, but Olivia has certainly crossed our minds !

Oasis, Oakley (I might be partial to that name :)…
What I considered naming my black and white before picking Oakley was : Onyx..it's fitting for such a dark dog!
-
Eheheh Thanks for the suggestions ! For now my girlfriend and I are leaning more towards Olivia and then we can call her Ollie as a two tone word wich is more apropriate for training, but yeah I would also go for Onyx if it were for a male… Oasis is actually cool but sounds kind of odd to call in my language, the word has the same meaning in Portugal but with different pronounciation and its odd to call in ours and its also odd to be calling in another pronounciation.. But yeah still nice suggestions and I apreciate it
As I said Olivia is our nr1 choice at the moment but all suggestions are welcome as I'm still unsure about Olivia ! -
I think she looks like a Raven… hehe

You really should verify that the parents have been DNA tested for at least Fanconi. Just saying "I have not had problems with Fanconi" is (in my opinion) not good enough, especially since we have a DNA test. Buyers should always ask to see the paperwork for test and also to seach on line at www.offa.org with the dog/bitches registration number and/or registererd name. I always encourage new people to the breed to please do the research.
