  • Hi!
    Im new here! My name is Therese, 36 years old and i am from Sweden. Im the humble waitress ;-) to two red/white basenjis and two cats. (Sacred cat of burma)

    I enjoy to train my dogs for fun. Right now we are into blood tracking and both my dogs recently became approved in the blood tracking aptitude test.
    If you want to know more about us, we have a website listed in our profile which you all are welcome to visit.

    Have a nice day!!

  • Hi Therese and welcome to the forums!

  • Hello to you and welcome to this forum.
    My Eos is a half sister on the dam side to your girl Lisa! :)

  • Hej! Welcome to the forum…........hope you find it fun and informative.

    Enjoy!

  • Welcome! What great fun tracking must be with your dogs :)

  • Hello Therese, me too inn. Must say the people and the dogs are very kind with new members here ;-)
    Our favorit is L-C as you perhaps allready know and we have our own maskin too. Our big star was Aliz, so sad she is gone forever. Allan is to old but the 3 Whipps loves it.

    Best regards from Inga-Karin / Abrinkens

  • Thank you all for the nice welcome! :)

    Yes it´s fun to track with my dogs. I took a course in tracking and by curiousity I wanted to see how the other breeds worked in their tracks. I have to say that I at first thought my dogs tracked too slow. All the others (cocker spaniels, labradors and golden retrievers etc) went on like crazy, with a risk to get off track. But when the test came the judge said my dogs tracked with great precision, and by others Ive heard that its typical for a basenji to be so accurate.
    Ive also been into Lure-Coursing and agility and hope to do more of that too.

    So Inga-Karin, hope to see you in a field sometime! :)

  • Hello!! That's so fun!!! I've been looking for relatives to my Lisa and websites about basenji in France and havent found much!! Your basenjis are lovely!!
    Wish you a great weekend!! :-)
    /Therese, Lisa and Otis

    Every single person who loves the breed has a right to care when irresponsible breeders get support. I am sorry you don't get that. Nor was it s lecture...it was facts.

    Yep, when it comes to Basenjis, it pretty much is a small world. Humvee, aka Tex Son, (he got his call name because he was the biggest puppy in his litter) has had a great show career, and you couldn't ask for a sweeter temperament - although the whole litter was was fabulous. His mom was a total love, and his dad is still incredibly handsome and devil-may-care at almost 11 years old. Hum loves to play with puppies and hang out in the house with his human mom. So although I haven't met Reba, I'm sure he will pass on his love bug genes! We will be hoping the news is good and you soon have a noisy, lovable troublemaker in your life. Terry

    @Scampy: Hello, everyone! I am so excited to have stumbled upon this forum! I belonged to Basenji Companions until last year, and I miss the community and advice. I have one basenji, a 10-year-old red & white male named Toby. I adopted him six years ago as a "golden opportunity" dog when his show/breeding days were over. He shares the house with three humans and a cat. (We may be inheriting another cat, but don't tell him…I'd sort of promised him a little sister.) Any other west Michigan folk out there? I was born in Kalamazoo! Welcome to the forum! Tabatha

    Sorry if we sound so disagreeable … but it is so important that the health of our breed is #1 on everyones list and that everyone understands and does as much health testing as possible before breeding... especially since we have genetic problems that we can't test for, the family tree becomes our only way of knowing what we might expect... and it is only fair to people thinking about getting a Basenjis as a family companion that they know what they might expect..... Everyone should visit the BCOA Health site (www.basenjihealth.org) and learn what is being done to find genetic testing and what everyone can do to help
