    @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.

    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.

    Totally unrelated. Jabari, I can't tell you how it warms my heart to hear "aloha" and "mahalo". Oh warm and fuzzies :) My family is still on Maui as my little sis is only in high school. Our Riley is getting the big snip in probably about 10 days. Poor little guy. I think it's the non-laser kind. We haven't had a comprehensive exam w/ the new vet yet but she comes highly recommended from a breeder out here. I just wish she accepted AKC's comped vet visit certificate you get for registering :/

    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...
