    Chris has some very nice Basenjis. None of mine are related to hers, but you have a good breeder

    We use beautiful martingales from the dutch site www.halsbanden.com - maybe she ships to the US…. The leash we use is what is called in Holland a police leash, with fasteners on both sides: http://www.vldsweden.nl/Webwinkel-Product-1824933/Politie-lijn..html?gclid=CKetvYTG8K4CFVEjfAodeyptLQ When I want my 2 B's close, I can use one leash.

    @TikaLynn: I think Basenji's just are very alert dogs, and at night there is a lot of "activity" outside we may not see, but they do! I think that's a big part of it. As they say, "ignorance is bliss". Basenjis are certainly not ignorant when it comes to their surroundings. I noticed Kananga always has his ears back when we're outside at night, or certain times during the day. He can sense something and it makes me nervous at times. :o But this is what makes them great hunters and generally great at surviving out in the open. They are smart, and with that comes anxiety since they are aware.
  • Can anyone please explain this to me

    My Jala came from a similar situation. :( The breeder just wanted to flick her off after having showed and bred from her because her home situation changed. I mean, it's sad, but happens. It just makes me love Jala more. :)

    Mine have cruddy teeth too… and it could be the hard, hard water... or in the case of OJ it is genetic as all the dogs from his Dam have terrible teeth... and he would always have extractions and so to the point that they just fell out by themselves.... By the way, I tried the oxyfresh... no real help.... And OJ too, after a teeth cleaning, he was like a baby pup again, which told me that his teeth were bothering him....
