    How sad.. :( I wonder if there are really people out there willing to pay that much for a pup..

    In the Netherlands/Belgium they now have a website with puppies for sale etc. but when you click at "Buy now" you get information about why not to buy from these kind of sites etc. Maybe an idea…? ;)

    OMFG that's CRAZY!! And it's not just basenjis, all the breeds are like that, I was just browsing through and there was a GSD that they wanted $2,997 for :eek: :mad: and it's 8 months old. WTF??? Unreally, makes me want to say lots of foul language that I can't write here

    Also looking at other breeds, poor dogs look no where near the standards; like Tanza points out the Champion lines is a high probability of being at least 3 or more generations back, and not in immediate pedigree.

    And one last anger moment, they actually have a list for "Mixed Breeds" and prices for $800+ averaging at least $1000

    @bellabasenji:

    This is very unsettling!!! All of these Basenjis look rather scraggly IMO. Anyone notice something wrong with the 1yr old Tri girl's back foot???

    I looked at it, looks more like stain from chewing on it like from a allergy related issue of something along that lines

    I looked at the back foot also. It looks like she's been crated and standing in her own waste. They definitely get feet like that from their own waste. The high ph is like acid on their skin after awhile. So sad. IMO she's definitely a kennel dog who looks like she's been made to be scared and submissive. So sad.

    I think perhaps because the price would have been too high on the k9stud site compared to everyone else selling puppies. Or maybe the other site charges a much higher service fee.

    I CANNOT agree with you more…

    I also thought that she had a stained back foot from standing in her own waste :mad:

    I also thought that she looked TERRIFIED... I thought the pups looked sad, but, she looks like she has been dragged out of the "breeding barn", (probably they havent been able to breed her, hence her being for sale... She is of no use to them now...), taken indoors, an area she has NEVER seen before, to take the "happy shots", ready for the market :mad::mad::mad: Im sure she would love to curl up on the couch with you, once she recovers from all the psychological problems, she has been gifted with, via these lowlifes:mad:.

    Did you also see that when you bring up the page of b/w, it says "There are no PRODUCTS in this category", explains it very well…

    And this is exactly why so many of us are so passionate about telling people to find a responsible breeder or go to rescue for their basenji. Every puppy these people sell means that they will just breed again to have more "product".

    @senjisilly just now saw your reply. Thanks for the pedigree website. I knew about it and it’s a great resource.

    @tanza I don't believe there was a limit to the number of letters, though I wasn't paying much attention to whether the field stopped me from continuing. Tanza is nice! I was actually surprised no one has claimed the name :D

    @zande - So true Zande, the test is 65.00 and considering the heartbreak and cost of caring for a Fanconi Basenji (try shoving down 20+ pills a day) it is something that anyone breeding, even Back Yard Breeders or Puppymills should always do... Also if someone happens to get a puppy or is unsure about the breeder they did get a Basenji puppy from, spend the 65.00 and have the DNA Fanconi test done... again it is a cheek swab that you order from OFA.org

    @lindenbaum I've long forgotten about this thread. If I am remembering correctly, I left it up so that people could read the flags that it may be a puppy mill and be able to make their own decision regarding that. I am deliberately wording that as "... may be... " because I do not have any personal interaction with "HH" and therefore cannot speak to it. (please note that I removed your "HH available breeds" list, no offense)

    @Quercus: http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/ Did you try here, above? Can you put the sire and dam's numbers into the ACA website? Or is there a number to actually talk to someone, maybe they could help you more? I would think that since you have the litter number, the ACA could help you, if you could talk to a human…. I contacted the ACA last Friday and was told I had to prove that Tippy was a rescue by faxing such documentation. I sent that information in, similar to the info shown in the original post above, including BRAT documentation accordingly. Then, yesterday, I followed up with ACA and was told that a supervisor made the determination that they could'nt help me unless BRAT issued an ACA registration application to me. Then I contacted a few BRAT board members and one answered saying they've never had seen nor heard of such a thing. I'm beginning to feel like the ACA is trying to hide something, something to the effect that they are really a "false marketing front" for the profit-making pet industry. A couple of very nice basenji-loving folks have stepped forward to try to help track down potential puppy mill/pedigree information, but if they are not successful, I wonder how I can convince the ACA that my interest in Tippy's pedigree is purely medical and to support the Fanconi research efforts? Does anyone think it would help if I told the ACA that Tippy is already neutered (as BRAT requires for all their rescues)? I don't necessarily want to register him at all, but if that's what it takes to get his pedigree, I will do it.
