Talking about Basenjis at the University

[Janneke]

I recently started my new 'project': Veterinary Medicine. I will be studying for the next six years :eek:

Today we talked about pyruvate kinase deficiency anaemia.. And there it was.. A big picture of a (very good looking ;)) basenji on the screen! That was so cool! Haha.. Now I know for sure that all 200 Vets that will graduate in about six to eight years know about the B ;) :D

I never shut up about Mirtillo, so the people who know me al said.. Ooh.. that's your dog!!!

Another funny story.. I have a 'colleague' student, who worked in Congo for the last couple of years… He told me about the B's there! So cool! I told him that if he goes back again, he has to bring one with him ;)

what are the b's like in the congo? running wild?

[Christiane]

Great! I met two vets who didn't know Basenjis at all. I would also like to know what Basenjis in Congo are like, could you ask your friend?
Thanks

This is great, new vets learning about our dogs…
Good work with your studies.
It a wonderful job, caring for animals.

Congratulations on your new career! We will all know where to find a good vet in The Netherlands…in 6 years!
Good luck with your studies.

It is a wonderful job indeed..
And I hope all my colleague-students remember this leason about our B's!! :D
But I'm boring them all with my b-stories.. so for sure they will remember something about them ;)

B's in Congo are wonderful, so I've been told by the 'african' colleague. He can tell very passionate about them.. It was really cool, he saw a pic of Tillo very briefly and said: aaaah.. a basenji…!!! And I was like....:eek:
He told me they are very free in Congo.. just doing their thing.. And they haven't got that tightly curled tail there as they have over here :D ;)
