    Hello. I think we met on Sunday. Your little girl really is so adorable. Please post some piccies of her. :)

    Hiya. Yes, we did! Which one were you, if you don't mind me asking! :D

    I must say though that I don't normally look like such a tramp! Honest! :eek: A whole weekend of agility in the Scottish climate takes it toll. :rolleyes:

    @irena:

    Hello and welcome to forum :D.
    Looking forward to see pics of your doggie.

    Thank you. :)

    @Elscodobermann:

    Welcome.

    Thank you. :)

  • Hi Nicola, I'm the one with the dog (Chance) that took a fancy to your lovely little girl. I also have one of Janet Bannister's dogs. :)

  • Hello, a warm welcome from me too. I used to live in Scotland and had a Border Collie there. I have a Basenji now and I must say both types of dogs are outstanding.
    Please send pictures and…perhaps with a Scottish background? I miss that place so much!

  • Aha! Yep, I'm with you now! It was lovely to meet you all and your stunning dogs. :) I think Roxy enjoyed herself as well!

    Hello. :)

    I have just posted some pictures of Roxy. I will try and find some with Scottish backgrounds for you. I'm sure there are some!

  • Hi Nicola, we were at the SKC too on Sunday. I think i remember seeing your lovely Roxy. We live in Scotland too so hopefully will see you again sometime. This is a great forum with lots of great info.

  • Hello Nicola, welcome to the forum.

  • Hi Nicola,

    You will know me from another forum;)
    I was there on sunday though not showing. I saw Roxy but didn't realise it was you:(
    You walked past us with Roxy after judging and both my mum and I said "that looks like a Basenji x" so that would explain it then:rolleyes:
    What a shame i didn't know it was you as we could have had a blether, oh well maybe meet you at some point.

  • Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! I wasn't sure initially how you would all accept someone with a Basenji cross so it's lovely being here! :)

    Hello Theresa. :)

    Yes, I'm sure we'll meet someday. Would be lovely to meet you and your dog/s.

    The Basenji is a breed I have come to adore, so this forum is great for reading all about them and looking at the pictures too! Very interesting indeed!

    Hi Jenny! :D

    Oh what a shame. :( I was undecided on posting about SKC on the other site, I wish I had done now! Not to worry, we'll meet someday, I'm sure! And of course, I'd love to meet your gang too.

    I remember hearing someone saying "….Basenji cross" as I was walking by! Who'd have thought it was you! ;)

    @DebraDownSouth said in Hello! New Member: If your dog is getting too thin, give more in maybe 10 to 15 percent increases. Getting fat? Cut back 10 to 15 percent til you hit ideal, then add a little to maintain. " The eye of the master maketh the horse" applies to dogs just as well. With practice, you notice quickly if your animal is gaining or losing, and what his/her ideal weight looks like.....

    Admittedly Basenjis and sheep are a problem. Thank you for such friendly welcomes. I have had some Basenjis who I did eventually manage to 'train'!!? to be safe with sheep and could wander among them and occasionally help to herd, others (including my current pack are killers and can't be left to wander freely where the sheep are. We have a double gate system for visitors. There was a time when I could have taken them all out for walks together but now I take them 3 at a time and my whole day is taken up with exercising dogs. When I get the hang of my digital camera I'll post some piccies. Nomrdggs - I'm not sure I have kept my sanity!!!! Tanza - I have actually seen some of our original imports - and I have attempted to breed as close to the original type as I can. I bred my last litter 4 years ago.

    Sorry if we sound so disagreeable … but it is so important that the health of our breed is #1 on everyones list and that everyone understands and does as much health testing as possible before breeding... especially since we have genetic problems that we can't test for, the family tree becomes our only way of knowing what we might expect... and it is only fair to people thinking about getting a Basenjis as a family companion that they know what they might expect..... Everyone should visit the BCOA Health site (www.basenjihealth.org) and learn what is being done to find genetic testing and what everyone can do to help
