    @alibobo Echoing what Sally (and Liz McCargo) has suggested re: not spaying/neutering, at least at this young age. There's a very insightful and thoroughly informative booklet by the "Puppy Culture" founder on the subject. It is chockful of the latest scientific/medical/genetic research and also takes into consideration the social "pressure" of neutering/spaying one's pet. (BF should read a few pages if he prefers facts to oft repeated false tales) https://my.puppyculture.co.uk/resources/flipbook/spay-neuter-booklet/ Whether to neuter/spay is an important decision and so is its timing should you decide to have the operation.

    @Chealsie508: In a way I feel pressured to do it and in all reality, I am comfortable waiting until 14 months. I certainly wouldn't have your dog neutered because someone else thinks you should…I agree with eeeefarm on this. Do what you feel comfortable with, and it appears that you feel more comfortable waiting.

    Yeah, Jazzy's mom… it's okay, I guess I was being a dope about that! Sometimes I get all flustered about an issue and don't quite see the irony in things... no apology needed.

    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...
