Happy Birthday Zoni!

[Nemo]

Today is Zoni's 1st birthday! Even though she is my 2nd basenji I call her my "starter dog" because she is the one I'm taking the plunge with into conformation, coursing, and who knows what other dog performance adventures. So in celebration, I thought I'd share this one cute video from when she was only 4.5 wks old (she is the sneezing one in the front)

Edit: Doesn't look like the embedding of the video worked. Here is the link:

and a picture of her now, playing in the blizzard that we had last week. There is no stopping her if she thinks there is a bird in the yard!

Wow, I love that photo in the snow. She is very lovely, I hope she had a Happy Barroooo Day and is warm and snuggled up with you now.

Happy birthday Zoni.
Pic in the snow is great. I love that contrast among black basenji and white snow, beautiful :).

Happy birthday Zoni! Many more wonderful ones to come.

Question for the breeders - I thought black and whites were recessive. How does a red/white dam produce all black/whites?

[Nemo]

Zoni's sire is b/w and the color is co-dominant with red. There is also a recessive black "fula black" which has been discussed on the forum before and is less common and has some bleeding of red/tan in it.

I also fixed the link to the video in case it wasn't working for you.
