New Pup to come

Member Introductions
  • Happy Holidays all! Out pup was bien a few weeks ago, on December 2, just outside Paris, France. My fiancee and I will be moving from Montreal, Canada to Limoges, France in a few days, and will be picking her up around the first week of February. Elsza is the name we've given her. Attached are some of the pics we've received so far.

    I look forward to reading up on the forum topics and getting to know the breed better.

    Thanks!

    @elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch. If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !

    @rhughes89 said in New member Here! Introducing my pup Oya: I wish i could post links directly to the Zande Basenji database. It was pretty cool to see the ancestry! If I were to allow everyone to update their own records, @rhughes89, it would be utter chaos. I have to check the spelling of puppies in litters sent to me direct from breeders, and an unholy quantity are incorrect ! With and without apostrophes, sires and dams mis-spelled (which if I wasn't careful would lead to a multitude of doubling up). Luckily there is the AKC website and various national dogweb-registries I can go to. But if you send me a photo or anything, I normally get it into the database the same day and re-upload it all that same evening. And no, the 2019 litter is in, but not the 2020 so let me have the registration number as soon as you can and I will dig out the whole (registered) litter.
  • Can't wait to pick up my new pup.

    @Rita: Pat yes we did get Jaycee's AKC application at the time we got her. Have not got cert back yet as we were really slow in her name made us slow in mailing. Rita Jean Great, it would be good if you gave Sally W the information for her website to update the pedigrees. Many of us rely heavily on the pedigree site when thinking about breeding and researching dogs…. You can do contact Sally at Zande Basenjis (just do a seach for her website and drop her an email with the info)....

    Humane is a double edged sword IMO. Yes, they do help dogs, but there are problems with the agency as well. There are many breeds that would now be extinct except for breeders who had the dedication to keep the breed alive. Basenji's would never be known in the world except for dedication of someone who decided to take them from Africa. The Chinook was saved from extinction in 1981 with 11 breedable dogs! So breeders have their place, and definitely the humane has it's place. I don't discount them, there are just two sides to the story. Of course this is MO only!
