    As long as the cat keeps well out of the dog's way ! Most learn to do that pretty soon after the Basenji arrives - I have seen a Basenji shaking a cat, much like you would a feather duster.

    @patrick-brandon good ! I will reply when I get back from the woods. Glorious weather, mud drying up and Kito is taking to recall very well indeed. Of course, he has his half brother to set a good example 😍

    I cannot thank you enough for the help. My other dog, Herbie, has been very patient with Chester. I hope someday they will be friends...and Chester will understand he is finally safe. Thank you again.

    @MacPack: Welcome to you and Perry, he is a great looking boy. Keep posting lovely photos, your farm looks wonderful. It sounds like you and Perry (and the horses) have a wonderful life. We do O.K. Perry is the youngster around here, at 7 years old. The rest of us are seniors! I am retired, as is my husband and our three horses. Oldest to youngest, 35,29,25. Here are the two oldest, taken a couple of years ago (but they can still run when they've a mind to) [image: 02counthero.jpg] And here is Perry, worn out from catching up on the news…. [image: 01nap.jpg] I call this one "Don't bug me, I'm sleeping!" [image: dontbugme.jpg] Thank you all for the warm welcome to the forum. I've been rather busy, getting into trouble on another thread. You know what they say about retired folks, we know everything, and have the time to tell you about it! :D

    @tanza: By the way, 80% of Basenjis have umbilica herinas… and there is NO emergency to get them fixed as 99% of the time they never cause problems. We show with them, we course with them, even the bitches have puppies with umbilica hernias... Your Vet is totally off base... that that he/she is the first... happens all the time. Also there is a Basenji breeder, who is a Vet (Tracy Leonard) in Beavercreek, Oh... maybe she could give you a referral? Our Basenji also had an umbilica hernia when he was little. Our Vet told us to just keep an eye on it but said it was pretty common. The umbilica hernia our basenji had took care of itself and the dog is completely healthy. Like Tanza has said your Vet is off base and you are doing the right thing by seeking another Vet. We chose to use a Vet that specializes in sports medicine for dogs. I would follow the advice you have received and get a referral from a breeder or contact your local AKC club and find out if there are any other Basenji owners in that club and ask them who they use for a Vet. They should be very willing to help you. Jason

    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.
