    Cory sounds like a gem. The crating issue could be more of a separation anxiety issue. Have you tried a larger area for her (maybe an X-pen)? Congratulations on your new addition!

    Thank you all for the welcome and we especially enjoyed seeing Cory's sister and cousins! I tried to post several photos of Cory in the Member's Gallery but despite a message to the contrary, only one picture is appearing. It isn't necessarily the one I would have chosen if I'd known only one was going to appear. Oh well…I just hope the others aren't appearing as mystery pictures in other member galleries.

    @BasenjiDiva:

    She loves our 3 little grandchildren - aged 4 months, 20 months, and almost 4 yrs. She especially likes the older two whom I babysit 2 days a week. She "yodels" for them but they aren't quite sure if a real dog should be making a noise like that. I think she likes them so much because they can't put things up out of her reach. She especially steals from the 20 month old - often his pacifier. Cory has developed quite a taste for their Goldfish crackers.

    Hello and welcome, wanted to share a funny little story. I watch my niece a lot, she is 18 months old. She has only really been around my B (Deke) so when you ask her "what does a doggie say?" instead of the normal "woof woof" answer she only knows to pant !!!!!!! It's pretty fun. Oh and Deke loves goldfish crackers too. He cleans up after they leave….no vacuum needed here !

    My husband has always said that we should name our dogs after vacuum cleaners…......wouldn't that be a good name for a litter: Hoover, Kirby, Rainbow, Roomba, Dust Buster, etc. :D

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

    Getting a dog from a responsible breeder is definitely worth the wait and the work to find. At my vet's office we are "the good basenjis". My vet actually sees several basenjis in their practice and the only ones they look forward to seeing are mine. The reason, mine have never tried to bite them, nor are mine shy about being handled, they are healthy. My vet was really upset to have a new client bring in her 8 week old basenji fresh off the airplane, it was terrified of people and had slipping patellas. My mom's vet is considered "the" basenji vet in her area. The majority of his clients have dogs bought from the internet or a local BYB. He became "the" vet because so many of his basenji clients are being treated for a variety of hereditary diseases. He was absolutely shocked when she came in with hers for their first exam. First off, that she was able to provide him with OFA information for both of her dogs plus information on the health of their parents. Secondly, because they were both in really good condition, good muscle tone, no signs of the disorders he so commonly sees. I have much the same experience with dog trainers. There are certain issues that they get used to dealing with because the pups that come to them did not receive as much early socialization. They are pleasantly suprised to see well socialized puppies with good communication skills. So what I am trying to say is that good breeding shows.

    Welcome to the forum. Great story too. I especially like the description of your other dog "Betty the Sheprador Chowtriever ." That's Funny! My basenji/whippet mix also came from a local shelter. She wasn't there long enough, or perhaps they didn't know much about bs, but they only had her listed as whippet mix. Didn't take long for a dog savy friend of mine to mention the word "basenji." No doubt in my mind, she is basenji and something. I picked her out and my mother paid for her. Best Christmas present I ever got!
