  • This is the hardest gift we can give our beloved dogs.
    The gift of peace, to be free of pain.
    I truely believe we see our dogs again, that they never truely leave us…they are with us always.
    Hugs, hugs, hugs.

  • loosing our beloved friend is one of the hardest things in life to face. She is no longer hurting , may that sustain you They unfortunately no matter how long we share our lives with them are only lent to us for a short time. Having just gone thru this in August I know how you feel. Your head knows it was right but your heart is broken. my deepest sympathies

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.

  • Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that Dacia didn't make it. What a shock to have her go so quickly, though I suppose in some ways better than a long illness. Hugs to you and your family.

  • So sorry for your loss, but she is free of pain… and running free over the rainbow bridge with all that have gone before her....

  • Thinking of you and Dacia today. I hope your painful loss becomes easier to bear as time goes on; and I hope tomorrow brings some relief from your pain.

    Losing a family member is devastating. Our Baseji's ARE family.

  • Our sympathies and prayers are with you as you try to get through this difficult time! I'm so sorry you had to make such a tough decision with such a young and treasured dog, but she will watch over you, thankful that you freed her from her pain.

  • So sorry to hear of your news. I know how you feel and may God bless you…

    @Saving Thanks so much for the information! I am researching further and continuing with her rehab exercises as best I can. Glad you recovered from your spinal injuries.

    @Rebel - Full blood workup including full Thyroid panel (full panel no just what the normal vet workup that is not a full thyroid panel)... as they say make sure that he is in good health. Also what are you feeding him? How much total are you feeding a day? Also with reducing food, add veggies to his food to fill his belly... green beans are good to use... I use Cauliflower and Broccoli... Note also that low normal is typically too low for Basenjis.

    @serenjane My Kembe had the freckles on her neck - more pronounced in summer months w/ the sun and also as she aged. I use to call her my little 🦒 giraffe. 😂

    To give you an idea of the contrast between Basenjis and Border Collies, my BC once spit out a pill, I said "Blackie" in a disapproving tone, and he picked it up from the floor and swallowed it!
