    It was minus 12 here last night in Niagara Region of Ontario. Warmer than it has been though, we've been going through a cold snap as has most of USA as well.

    I was looking for any winter photos from members. Playing in the snow, chasing in the snow, etc. You can always go to the BCOC website and apply, or I can send you an application and a free copy. We're always looking for new members. By the way, our BCOC Specialty is right after the Calgary Stampede this year. Hope some of you guys can make it! That's where you'll see quite a few Basenjis- not as many as the BCOA, but still, we try to get quite a few! Sally Wournos is judging this year.

    I would like the application, can I send you a private email with my mailing address? I have some photos on http://s548.photobucket.com/albums/ii350/gneigum/ if you could use.

    @Rita: Pat yes we did get Jaycee's AKC application at the time we got her. Have not got cert back yet as we were really slow in her name made us slow in mailing. Rita Jean Great, it would be good if you gave Sally W the information for her website to update the pedigrees. Many of us rely heavily on the pedigree site when thinking about breeding and researching dogs…. You can do contact Sally at Zande Basenjis (just do a seach for her website and drop her an email with the info)....

    Getting a dog from a responsible breeder is definitely worth the wait and the work to find. At my vet's office we are "the good basenjis". My vet actually sees several basenjis in their practice and the only ones they look forward to seeing are mine. The reason, mine have never tried to bite them, nor are mine shy about being handled, they are healthy. My vet was really upset to have a new client bring in her 8 week old basenji fresh off the airplane, it was terrified of people and had slipping patellas. My mom's vet is considered "the" basenji vet in her area. The majority of his clients have dogs bought from the internet or a local BYB. He became "the" vet because so many of his basenji clients are being treated for a variety of hereditary diseases. He was absolutely shocked when she came in with hers for their first exam. First off, that she was able to provide him with OFA information for both of her dogs plus information on the health of their parents. Secondly, because they were both in really good condition, good muscle tone, no signs of the disorders he so commonly sees. I have much the same experience with dog trainers. There are certain issues that they get used to dealing with because the pups that come to them did not receive as much early socialization. They are pleasantly suprised to see well socialized puppies with good communication skills. So what I am trying to say is that good breeding shows.
