    Hello and greetings from (hot & humid) Philadelphia! I'm a new owner of a Basenji -Terrier mix. I hope you don't mind non 'pure-bred' members :) I look forward to learning from all of you. I've had Bailey for about a month and so far so good! She's shedding a lot and I've already found a good tip about the zoom groom from Kong….gonna try it out. Thanx!

    Thanks guys! I will be sure to get some pics out here by this weekend. Also, I used the Kong zoom-groom on Bailey last night and am amazed! The amount of dead hair that came off of her was enough to build another dog :) What a tool…and cheap too. Bailey is a rescue from the shelter where I volunteer and I can assume she was never groomed by her prior owner. She was found wondering the streets of North Philly on her own so it's safe to say she's in a better place now (currently lounging in my air conditioned apt with my cat Polly).

    Welcome to you and Bailey. It seems as though she is enjoying a lovely home.

    I have to go read your link, but having been called to the shelter to see a chow that was an overweigh pomeranian, a rottweiler that was a lovely hound dog (Rottie rescue in FL told me keep quiet, they knew it wasn't a rottie but had a good home so just get it. I expected a LITTLE Rottweiler looking... bahahaha, no.)... vets who thought our basenjis were so many other things, not much surprises me.

    @krunzer: Keep them separate in their own crates. The older one may not want to put up with puppy play in a big crate. When crated mine are always separate unless they are at the kennel, then they are in the same pen because Becca is not fond of the kennel. PS, basenjis don't like being woken up much, and one dog annoying another who wants to stay asleep might result in a fracas in a confined space; never a good thing.

    As mine age I try to keep a bit of weight on them because I know they may reach a stage when they just don't keep weight as the organs weaken.

    Remember however for a full thyroid panel usually isn't done at places that do bloodwork… and also what a Vet would call "low normal" for most dogs, for a Basenji it is Too Low...

    I'm sorry for the loss of your dear Basenjis. Losing a pet is so difficult. I hope this site helps you through the transition. Welcome.
