New Congo pups

Breeder Talk
  • Anyone else having issues logging into Yahoo Groups? It was telling me that my sign in name was not accepted? (The same name I have been using for many, many years.) Then it kept asking me to register but kept refusing my email address. I finally got it to work somehow but I don't know why it was such a pain.

    I am happy that more pups were brought back and even happier that one is a black/white. I hope we get to see more of these pups soon. :)

  • I agree Jo, they are all lovely puppies complete with Breed Type

  • Sharron,
    Whose facebook name or what group are these dogs being written about? I want to follow them.

  • I'm very excited to see the pups, and quite thrilled about a BW being selected. The distribution of colors makes sense to me, it fits into a basic population dynamic theory. Dr. Jo - if you ever need an ecologist on a trip, I'm your girl.

  • Re the facebook access. I have NO idea how to fix it.
    Any help anyone??

  • @JoT:

    I apologize if my remarks sounded "teachy" or as if I was correcting you. That was not my intent.

    Oh no, I didn't think that at all. You put a lot more depth behind my comments and thought it was very appropriate. I love evoluntionary biology/genetics but only get into it from a more casual reader perspective.

    You have real-life experience involved with this type of subject, which is why I will make a not-so-shameless plug for your seminar at the BCOA National in Manitowoc, WI this September. People can go to the Specialty site for details. :D

  • Sharon, you should be able to go to the Facebook page where the pictures are, highlight the URL, copy, and then paste it here.

    If that's what you did previously (I, too, just got the sign-in page with a "wavecable" email address), then just tell us the name of the person/group where these pictures can be found and we should be able to do our own search (unless the person/group has their security set such that their name isn't searchable).

  • @sharronhurlbut:

    Re the facebook access. I have NO idea how to fix it.

    You can either let people know the name of the person who posted the pictures so they can go to their profile (and friend them if necessary) or ask the person if they can give you a link to that particular photo album (there is a link at the very bottom of the album page which allows people who are not on Facebook to see the album) to share.

  • Ok, friend James Johannes.
    He is the one who took the Photos of Katie's new imports.

  • The b/w are certainly interesting and look really cute - I know Jon saw them on a previous trip but they were very elusive. He told us that when he came to give a talk at our club show.

    You're very lucky as many of you'll, I assume, have the opportunity to see them 'in the flesh' in the future. I hope we'll see a lot more pictures.

    I know Terry Reed is a breeder near Houston and currently has 2 litters. She also shows her basenjis. She was recommended when we looking for a Basenji when ours crossed the Rainbow Bridge last April. We ended up rescuing a mix instead since we didn’t want to wait but had no reservations about getting a puppy from her if we needed.

    @KiroGurl: how much would a red boy cost from most breeders? whATS THE AVERAGE? In the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic, I'd say a safe estimate is around $1000 - $1200 for a puppy from a responsible, reputable breeder. Personally, I haven't found there to be a lot of variables with pricing when you go to a responsible breeder. Off hand, the only real difference in pricing I've seen seems to be that it does vary by region of the US - kind of like everything :D. If a breeder is pricing by colour, male vs. female, or AKC registered/not, I'd immediately look for another breeder - personally I would consider those red flags and RUN. There may be breeders that charge differently for pet vs. show, but there are plenty that don't - none that I've encountered do. A good place to start to find a responsible breeder is always the BCOA breeders directory at basenji.org. And don't forget to verify health tests on offa.org

    The pups really love that ramp. I put a cat sized tunnel in there with them but instead of going through it they played "king of the mountain" and all jumped on top of it lol. These are the bounciest puppies. They are like little kangaroos hopping all the time. It's cute until you are sitting on the floor with them and one of them tries to pierce your nose. Ouch!

    Thanks Robyn and Pat! I guess I'll get to see on Robyn's website, since there will be pictures from each week.

    As a newbie to the breed, I took this opportunity to try to learn more about the "Africans" :). What fantastic information it is too… I have downloaded all the information on these dogs, and I am currently in the middle of assessing these beauties myself, before I read what the 3assessors have said about them... I think I have done a pretty good job of critiquing them, I might add :D. Thank you for allowing a newbie to get such valuable info especially as it is such a huge project, and one that perhaps no other breed is able to do, (at least that I am aware of :)).
