Butu… great name! Welcome to both of you. Kipawa is Swahili for 'gift'. Does 'Butu' mean something?

Hello to you and Butu from the UK.
We have two Basenjis, Malaika 15 months and Kwame 15 weeks.
Who did you get Buju from ? -

Thanks all for the lovely welcome. Butu was the puppy of an accidental breeding by a couple with two Basenjis.

Please have Butu tested for Fanconi syndrome. It is my understanding that your 'breeder' didn't have any of her own dogs tested.

I shall do. My vet has never had a Basenji before, so I may have to educate them. Thanks, Victoria.

your vet won't actualy do the test for Fanconi. You can do it yourself by ordering a cheek swab kit from the ofa site. http://www.offa.org/

A very belated welcome from yet another Brit but we have no boundaries on this forum - just belong to the worldwide Basenji lovers. I've been offline for a time hence my lateness!
Do you want to share where in the uK you are? I'm in Shropshire and have several Basenjis - the youngest are 7 and the oldest is 16 and 10 months. Loved ones all!
