Thanks for the reassurance Krunzer! no doubt there will be lots of differences between Ben and a basenji puppy.. i cant wait!
i think im expecting the worst, and hoping for the best 🙂 and my little experience with friends basenjis will help im sure. the first time i tried to handle a basenji was a disaster, he knew straight away i wasnt confident and walked ALL over me!! the second time He wasn't so lucky 😉 i got the upper hand, and he showed beautifully for me. we reach an understanding then 🙂

for example if you went to breeding information on Arubmec's The Victor here is one of his offspring that is a carrier, as is this offsprings dam, noted by the (CR). This dam in this case also goes back to Victor. Victor himself was long dead by the time DNA for Fanconi came out

Sure lvoss, the Sire is Can Ch. Tagati's Postal Code and the Dam is Can Ch. Tagati's Downwright LonesomeDove.
I forgot to ask for Date of Birth also. I usually send Sire, Dam, Date of Birth, Registration Number to her.
Thanks, once I send info to her it is usually on her site within a week, often sooner.

OK the Sire, Postal Code, was born on 6 nov 1998 and his number is HY574893 and the Dam, Downwright LonesomeDove, was born on 12 nov 2000 and her number is KW777254.
And yes looking at the pedigree both sire and dam are grandchildren of Arumbec's the Victor. I am going to look up the rest of the pedigree here and see if there are any more crossovers to carriers/affected dogs… Damn.

Sorry, I meant the DOB for your dog. Sally has the info on the parents. That is how Pat found that your pup is a double Victor great granddaughter.

There are many, many Victor kids, grandkids, great grandkids, out there that are either clear or only carriers… so that is why it is good to test... then you know... and know if you need to worry or not... or at least know what you need to maybe be prepared for.....

Bonjour, mon ami!

Hi, I'm also from Montreal.
I want to know if you know the price range of Nancy Kneen's basenjis. I bought my first one off kijiji, but I want to get one more. So far it seems that Tagati's place is the only option. I tried calling and e-mailing but no reply…
thanks for your help!

Welcome you and your beautiful girl. It sounds like you are doing a good thing and raising a very well trained dog. We are still working on maners and such at our house, next week we head off to Obecience Classes as well..
Again, a warm welcome.Basenjimamma
