Member Introductions
  • Congrats on the baby and welcome (again)…I'm sure you'll find this site informative and fun!

  • Hiya Capt Jack and family! Welcome aboard! :)

  • Welcome, and Congratulations on the baby! What an exciting time!

    My dh has been out of the Navy for 20 yrs, but he WAS a Nuke. Now he just works with them at the Bremerton shipyard.

    Jack's adorable – of course -- How long have you had him?

  • well we got Jack the beginning of August last year, as soon as we got here. he was only in the humane soc. for about 5 hours and we picked him up! love at first site…lol

  • How lucky for him to be found so soon. And how lucky for you!

    Jazz is our first Basenji also, and while I love several breeds of dogs {most are large}, I don't plan on ever owning anything else.

  • oh, i KNOW, it might be a bad thing tho, they are kind of expensive from a breeder, and we just lucked out on find Jack, how could someone NOT want him, He is amazing

  • Welcome!! And congrats on the baby & your recent marriage!! You'll love it here & you can get lots of help with any B questions. There's a thread somewhere on separation anxiety. You can do a search & read more…:D :D

  • THANK YOU all very much!!

  • My wife and I got our first dog together (a Basenji of course) just after getting married. Less than 2 years later we got another. I didn't know how attached I was to them until we lost one last year. She was 14. Our friends talked about other breeds available, and I decided I'm not really a "dog person" as much as a "Basenji person". We now have 2 more! There are a lot of Basenji nuts on this site too! Welcome to the forum.

  • cmd, i use to live in Ohio i was born and raised there. i lived in columbus and then in Granville, where are u from?

  • Welcome! That Jack is very handsome, congrats on the baby!

  • We're just outside of Cincinnati and have two 1 yr olds. (Select) Bonnie Bell came from Dr Tracy near Dayton. We drove nearly to Illinois to get Smitty. Smitty is a Hacker Basenji and he is closely related to the girl we lost last year. Ramsey is 12 – don't want to forget the old guy. Oh, sorry this was YOUR introduction thread! Nice to meet another midwesterner.

  • lol. i just miss ohio…i heard the weather was terrible tho, i dont miss that...hehe

  • snow with ice, then ice and more ice!



  • So pretty!

  • It looks BEAUTIFUL!!! aww, i remember the ice storm a couple of years ago, is it THAT bad again? i hope not, but it is VERY pretty!!!

  • Hi Kira

    Welcome and congratulations! I have two BRATS myself, and a third basenji as well. So beware, they ARE like potato chips (You can't have just one) I love her name, she is gorgeous. Can't wait to hear all about her Homecoming!

    Whatever she is, she's a little doll. It's nice to know that the displaced pups are finding such good homes.

    Before you get a puppy… go to the Basenji Club of Canada and Basenji Club of America websites and read up on Fanconi and other heritable diseases. ANY breeder not testing for these disease is NOT someone you should spend your time or money on one of their puppies. Too bad you didn't look 4-5 months ago... there was a lovely litter of Khani's pups up in Drumheller! Best of luck to you!
