    If you have a dog that tested DNA probably affected but is not spilling sugar, you could do a venous blood gas test and a CBC every six months but I would not start a dog on bicarbs or the protocol without it being necessary. Too many bicarbs, potassium and supplements without a dog needing it could make it ill. Jennifer

    You might want to watch her carefully in regard to her food, treats, and whatever she eats when you're not looking. Then change one by one to see if the diarrhea is indeed because of the particular brand of food.

    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...

    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!
