Breeding Plans

Breeder Talk

  • I'm not sure I'm keeping any. Tank is still here, but if I can find a good home, he will probably go with certain limitations. Such as showing. Bubba's owners have agreed not to neuter him yet until I see him at six months. They are really very good people. There are new videos of the two on the photobucket page, but they move so fast, it's hard to catch pics of them.


  • Just a few updates. Tank will be going to a new home. The people are very nice and wish to show him, at least they are willing to try, they don't know much about it but they think it would be fun, and they will be coming to racing this weekend to see what that is all about.

    Lilo will also be going to Nicholas on April 4. So wish him luck-he's going to need it! (Sorry Nicholas) Lilo is a climber and has just decided that escaping the xpen by pulling it down is the greatest thing. But she's a cuddler and kisser as well. Ahhh, the best of both worlds!


  • Thanx Arlene, we are so looking forward to a life with a Basenji, with all the memories we will be creating, the good and the bad. lol. We are down to just over a week so we are trying our darnest to basenji proof our home. We watched the two new vids that you d/l of the puppies, and yes we know, we are in for a wild ride. Hahaha. But we are so excited.


  • I want to wish you luck and patience with your new additions, but more importantly, I must know, WHERE did you find that adorable cartoon basenji you are using as an avatar?

    He's charming!


  • I googled Basenji images and found this lil' cartoon avatar. I thought he might attract a lil' attention. So I decided to use it.


  • WAY cool avatar…


  • I think this cartoon Basenji is from the same artist. I can't remember where I found this one… and unfortunately am unable to read their signature.:(

    I think these are so very cool!:D:D:D:D:D:D

  • I have one that is similar that has the B with a comic strip balloon above his head with an asterisk in it. Below the asterisk says "I'm speechless"…very cute ;)

    I believe it is Mike McCartney, he does a lot of tee-shirts and stuff. Here is a link to the website

    Ha, ha, ha…I know...that one is my favourite as well. :D:D:D


  • This guy must really know Basenjis!! Only those of us that have lived with them would get how appropriate it is for the red to be carrying the tri under the umbrella…such primadonnas ;) I bet that the red is a dog, and the tri a bitch, also ;)

    SOOOOOO right! The only way it could be better is if the red was holding the umbrella over the tri's head - while balancing "her". It has to be a "her". :D:D


  • I am loving McCartney's work, thank you for the link Jenn! I bookmarked it for future reference… it's great stuff!!!:cool:

    Seems like the DNA sample would be easier to get too. :rolleyes: I guess the advantage of the sperm count is that you at least know if the sire is fertile or not. Good luck, can't wait to see pictures of the pups to be.

    Thanks everyone who has shared their knowledge and opinions on the matter! I got all the tests done, just waiting for the results from the OFA. Say all the results are good/clear/negative/etc. I already spoke to a couple breeders, so I have a couple of potential studs picked out. What are some of the other steps involved, i.e. registering the litter, etc.?

    I had a Westie, that past over the rainbow bridge late March, that was allergic to storage mites. Storage mites are basically in anything stored on shelves in warehouses or stores for longer periods of time, like dry kibble, flour, grains and the like. So essentially he couldn't eat any dry nothing, so we went on raw and he did great. Of course he was also allergic to mold and flea saliva. Mold allergy and living in Houston, TX is a bad combo, it is everywhere, due to the humidity we have, and of course that also makes fleas very hardy. Bogus was on frontline and advantage together most of his life, that was the only way to keep fleas off of him and fur on him. He lived to be 13 years, which for me is way too young, but for a dog that has been on steroids and several meds throughout his life, realisticly it is not short. Either way, he clearly should not have been considered a breeding dog, even thought he was a beautiful example of what West Highland White Terriers should be like. My point, it depends on what type of allergies the dog has and the severity of them, in my ever so humble opinion..
