  • You can look up names of other basenjis in Sally Wallis's data base. Always he k to make sure the name I pick has not Already been used

  • Thanks guys!

  • You can't just do it online. The breeder must supply you with the right registration papers. If they fail to do so, you can file a complaint with AKC.

    Not going to go back and look where you got the pup cause I don't need the aggravation, nor you my response. Just glad you are here with good folks to guide you.

  • You can register onliine with the breeder supplied numbers, I did it with my whippet 5 yrs ago.

  • Yes, but not when the papers given are for a female of a different color. The breeder would need to give different number for the right dog.

  • @DebraDownSouth:

    Not true, the paperwork part that is for sex and color is filled in by the breeder or new owner on the registration slip. AKC doesn't have any idea what litter number goes with what puppy (sex/color) until they get the competed form back, they only assign the litter registration numbers to correspond with the number of puppies said to be in the litter. So if doing on line, you can mark the correct color and sex.

  • Yes, but don't the number of males/females that the breeder sent in have to match? I guess because I filled mine out and submitted for the new puppy owners, I never did online. But I do know I had to report the litter size and genders. If the breeder messed up and sent in wrong numbers, isn't that a problem?

    But I see what you mean, if she only mailed wrong ones, the person with Dexter's papers (hopefully she just messed up those 2) can simply go online and do their paper and it will all even out.

    First, I have to say that the breeder should do the responsible thing and get the papers straightened out, not just ignore the problem. Not a very responsible thing to do.

    That said, since this is a less then responsible breeder, I would guess that most likely not all the pups would be registered anyway, as BYB could care less about that.

    However, if by chance they are all registered, you are correct that the number of pups by sex are part of the litter record, so could be the last to be registered could really have a problem.

    Another lesson, check your paperwork before you "pay" for the puppy

  • We have already established that Dexter's "breeder" was disreputable. How many litters did this person have? If she had more than one litter then it is entirely possible that the papers that were supplied with Dexter may not have even been from the litter he was in.

    LOL when we were getting Sayblee, Leora had me on the net and we came up with 100 potential names. I picked my top ten and she crossed them all off. (she was about 9 at the time) She picked Sayblee. So Sayblee became my dog but I insisted on naming the next one, hence Arwen. But it turned out good since she doesn't yodel, but gives a very clear loud R a lot.

    I want my basenji to have an African name, so I searched African names via Google. Most of the sites tell you what African language the name is from and what the name means. It was an enjoyable process!

    We once got a puppy with a 12 year old male (and an older female). For the first week the adults kept their distance from the girl pup, but within a couple of weeks my male and the pup were inseparable. She hung from his neck with those wicked teeth and he hardly ever growled at her, she was his little shadow and they adored each other. Adults will make terrible noise and flash fangs at the pups, especially at about 6 months when they are teenagers, but most pups ignore it all! Male dogs are usually very sweet and good with pups…females are, well, bitches.

    @Andrew: Booger is FINALLY registered with his proper name. We've decided to use "Griffin" in our dogs' names as a reference to the half lion/half eagle mythical creatures. The Egyptians borrowed them from other civilizations & used them in art depicting hunting scenes. So Booger is now "Griffin's Pick of the Litter." Very nice choice…cute name. :)
