    He actually does go in our other dog's crate to steal food and my wife actually caught him laying down in the bed in it. Nothing is ever impossible. We did try crating him for a short car ride and he chewed through his lead trying to escape.

    Behavioral difference depend on the dog, the age the dog is neutered and other factors. Lots of studies on the topic but mostly you avoid the heightened mating response to other dogs in heat and chance breeding. Behaviorally, effects are generally not that much otherwise.

    Having had and lost a fanconis b made me realize lots of things. One is that knowledge gives you power to watch and maybe delay things. BUT dwelling on the end, and I did this as well…until someone I loved said, hey, we are all going to die. None of us know when...if you live dreading the death, then that is NO life. So, take time to get your head and heart together, reflect on your beliefs and know we share the joy you have each day with your basenji. If you find, down the road, your basenji is ill, we will share the caring and support with you. Sorry this is so much into beliefs, but in my mind, this is what these dogs teach us...live and enjoy each day...

    I have never had a problem with boys after being neutered… but since it has only been a week and 1/2 could be that he is still healing.... But again, I have never had that problem. If it continues I would certainly talk to your Vet..,

    His vet appointment is in three weeks and I'm taking the AVA information on Fanconi syndrome with me. We've been very lucky with Rocky. He was a rescue and has become the best family dog. I know the breed is not known for being good with kids but he is so incredibly patient with my two children (3 and 6 months). He even helped teach my eldest to walk by leting her hold onto his shoulders while she toddled along. I'll keep you guys posted and let you know what's up. We've had him tested for kidney, liver, and renal failure in the past as well as chronic UTI and blood-bourne illness. Nothing… "perfectly healthy dog". We'll keep looking until we figure out what's wrong. Thanks for all the info!
