Some years back, during our Shiba Inu and Jindo period our Jindo developed a terrible rash and wht with her licking turned into huge hot spots, loss of hair and everything. Our vet narrowed it down to a grain alergy, suggested we go to an avocado based food, AvoDerm. Within 2 weeks she stopped itching and chewing, and 6 months later all her hair was grown out. As time went by she developed a beautiful luxurious coat, never had another problem with alergies or skin problems. We realize that B's dont have the long double coats like Shibas or Jindos, but our philosophy is if it ain't broke don't fix it, so we have just continued feeding AvoDerm to our B's as we accumulated our pack. The main problem with it is, if we feed them as reccomended they gain weight, so we really have to watch their diet.
Hello From Oregon

Hello Everyone,
After more than 15 years without I now have a new Basenji. We live here in the Portland Oregon area. I had a couple of basenjis as a small child before my parents started breeding goldens. I got a Jack Russel for myself about 2 years ago and realized that a one dog house was not enough. So I thought long and hard about what kind of a dog to get that would be able to keep up with my Jacks energy and personality. Finaly I realized that I had totaly neglected to think about basenjis. So after almost 8 months of breeder research I found one I was comfortable with (Both the breeder and the bloodline), and now Charlie (My Jack) and I have welcomed into our house a little 10 week old female named Zaire.
