Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • ?

    This is going to sound a bit strange, but I'm okay with that.

    I have an enlarged heart and high blood pressure, often times my heartbeat gets a bit out of whack. my concern is that when Winter curls up with me in bed, her heart beat matches mine. I'm concerned because I'm used to it, I can handle it, but she has a much much smaller heart than I do and I don't want anything to happen to her because of this. I've had her for a month now, and she isn't presenting any issues currently, I'm just asking for discussion purposes.

    @Marie: One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet and which is recommended when treating giardia is to bathe the dog. This is because the giardia cysts can adhere to the hair around the hind end of the dog who then can re-infect himself by grooming. More of a factor in a long haired dog, obviously, but if it were me I'd be giving Oakley a few baths just to be on the safe side. (I'm sure he'll thank me for this suggestion! :eek:) Oooooo, I didn't know that! That is a great bit of info!

    Typically I have also advised those with dogs that 'appear' to have fanconi but are not basenjis or are mixes - to also have their vet fax the labs to Steve Gontos - he seems to have a handle on the chemistry of the disease in general that is helpful to those no B people

    I was told one of my dogs had a murmur by one vet but another could not find it. Something to 'watch' at this point.
