    @tanza said in Benji the Basenji: It is important to know the health of the pup and/or their sire/dam Well said ! It may not seem important now - you can say you will never show or need to register your Basenji - but in a few year's time you may find you wish you had known the health test results of the parents. By constant checking and careful breeding, many lines have obviated the most devastating scourges, but they are still around. Better to know for sure if your puppy is tested and imperative to make certain his or her parents were.

    Joan and Traci, happy to email you pictures. I will take some this weekend and sent them your way. The female is bigger in size (about 6kg) and lovely (tan with some black stripes and a lovely face) and extremely sharp. She is already trained. The male is smaller in size (about 5kg now) and very good natured. He is quieter but very vivid and active. We started their vaccination this week and they will have their booster in a month or so. I will be in touch. Thank you.

    Amen to that! A bored basenji is very creative in its destructiveness, although the dog only thinks he's having fun.

    Hi, welcome. Do you have any photos of Tom to share, we all like photos. Lot's of great information here on the forum and helpful people if you have any questions about the breed. My dog Kaiser(10 months) went through his second puppy stage at around 7-8 months and did a little destruction mainly his poor toys but is overall turning out to be a good dog. My best advice would be if you see a bad habit starting stop it as soon as possible other wise it could be a losing battle. Enjoy your pup. Jolanda and Kaiser

    @lvoss: This is not true Eldorado's Bejeweled was last CERF'd July 2008, that test is valid for 12 months so she would not be expected to be tested again until July 2009. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1210648#animal Eldorado's Barcelona was last CERF'd June 2007, so is due to be retested but has been tested multiple years. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1057756#animal Eldorado's Hocus Pocus was last CERF'd June 2007, so is due to be retested though she was tested last at 9 years of age so at least you have some idea of how her eyes aged. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1057755#animal Eldorado's Bejeweled is my girl Ruby and I was present at her CERF. Eldorado's Barcelona (my girl Ruby's mom) crossed to the rainbow bridge last fall. I believe she was 11 years old.

    I got a 15 week old puppy when my female was 8 and my male was 5. Both were happy to have a puppy around. They all spent hours chasing each other and the squirrels in the back yard around. Fortunately my puppy didn't pick up my female's habit of digging up the back yard.
