  • HI all,
    We got our Basenji pup about 2 months ago from a great breeder. We knew she was going to be a good pup becasue her parents were amazing! We named her Mia Pharaoh. She's 6 months now, and quite the character. She loves to sit her back to you and look over her shoulder at you when she's mad, loves to steal anything you leave on the floor, and loves loves loves to sunbathe (which there is no shortage of here in Florida). We are so proud of her that we are planning to get her brother from next year's litter! Looking forward to read the new threads to see everyones Basenji's :)

    That's great, who is her breeder?

  • His name is Tommy Bryant, located in Port Orange FL. We got his name from breeders.net. I checked out some other breeders, but most of them had this huge waiting list, and were no where close to Orlando. But I'm really happy with our choice. SHe is turning out to be a very good pup.

    @Nancy-Berry The saying is a very true one... when people ask how your dogs are with children, say "It depends.. how are your children with dogs?" Toddler Leora got her little legs smacked more over the dogs than anything. Not training your child to respect dogs, to understand that a hurt dog can and probably will respond, ... well it puts your child and dogs in danger.

    I think they just look solid so my mind saw "bigger." I have one of the Wimaumau rescue giants (44 pounds), but even my 2 previous gals were far from petite... about 26 to 28 pounds. My dream of a petite 18 pound basenji just never happened, lol.

    Hi Sadie, Lily had the first four tests done at one clinic and the next five done at another. The results have been all over the board at both places. Dr. Gonto thought about possible lab error early on. Thank you all for your thoughts and ideas. Keep them coming please. PMP

    A tired Basenji?!!! Joking apart, I agree with the previous posts. It is really important that she doesn't get something for nothing as Wizard advises make her work for it. Welcome to the Forum to you,Teagan and the others.

    When I 1st got Kirabo, I had named her Hollie. A few mths later my wife told me every time I had a seizure, she would go crazy & wouldn't leave my side. Then 1 night I had a dream & God told me to name her Kirabo which means " a gift from God". She truly is God sent. Kirabo stays by my side & is constantly keeping her eyes on me, always observant of every-thing I do.
