Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • Hi everyone!

    We just picked up our new girl yesterday from Texas (I still have to sit and type up a intro on the welcome thread ;) and of course we're looking for a basenji friendly and knowledgable vet asap. Willing to drive to see a good one (ie Mesa? Gilbert? whatever it takes) We're in the Phoenix, Paradise Valley, Scottsdale area….

    Thank you so much!!

  • I don't know of any because it's been a long time since we've lived in Phoenix. But you might try contacting Bev to find out who she uses. She may also have other recommendations.

  • Thank you LindaH - definitely asking Bev for sure! :)

    @sanjibasenji My saw is getting blunt ! I had a job sawing up yesterday's bone into manageable pieces ! But they do last weeks, sometime months.

    @kjdonkers Yes, or at least a confined area with a potty pad set up or potty station. Then if she HAS to go, no disaster.

    Is there anyone out in the New Jersey area (or knows of a site that I can be directed to) who knows of any vets that have knowledge of Basenjis? We have a 4 month old Basenji and our breeder took her to the vet at 8 wks but she hasnt been to one since so I've been looking for a good vet for a standard visit and cant seem to find one who knows about Basenjis (well all the vets Ive talked to, act like they know about them but you can tell they've never had one as a patient ;0 Thanks for the help!

    Our red girl dog has the same problem. Freaks out when you touch her ears with a swab, but loves the inside of her ears rubbed when petting her. You know the two handed ear & cheek rub. That gave me an idea!. I found some real soft white - tight gardening gloves (unused), gave her an ear massage and cleaned her ears out. it worked well. I was extra careful not to push the dirt down her ears, but did kind of a wiping motion out and away from her inner ears. She loved it!

    Hi Terry, Cairo is really great with people, kids, dogs, and if a cat would let him get near them he would be great with them too. He just loves playing with everybody. We socialize him allot. That is making it hard for us now because even though he is sore and healing from surgery, he just wants to play. He has sooooo much energy to burn off. If you have any suggestions we are listening. it should be over soon though. Thanks for saying hello. Dan
