Pedigree of a puppy

I live in Europe and I have reserved myself a basenji pup from a breeder, known as good and responsible in my country, we have a good contact and I like her very much I'm sure puppy will be beautiful healthy and very basenji! Since I don't have a big understanding about lines, titles and pedigrees, I'd like to get your opinion, how does it looks (pedigree) - is it weak, ok, or promising, is there too much inbreeding, what's the bloodlines ect.
I'm trying to understand all those things, but I have to say - I am already in love with my little basenji girl, she's just 3 weeks old, and waiting is killing me! I'll add some pictures (that breeder sent me) when I'll figure out how to add them on this forum! :p
I really really hope I'm not mistaken about the breeder, since she's slowly becoming my friend thru all the basenji talks on phone and email..
Here's the links to parents:

If you have an adult dog in the household, it will save you a lot of grief. The adults will usually put manners on the pup. I have yet to hear an adult "yelp", but sure have seen them snarl and pin the little so-and-so down momentarily, and when released the pup is usually a bit chastened and leaves the adult alone for awhile. Some need more convincing than others! Lady used to snarl in Tamu's face while holding her down, and watching her is what started me using the "bear hug" (minus the snarling) to correct this behaviour.

@agilebasenji:

You really, really do not want to bring a puppy home that is younger than 8 weeks old. In many states it is illegal AND the puppy misses out on learning valuble puppy skills, most importantly bite inhibition. Many breeders even suggest taking a new puppy home around 10 weeks.

This is SO TRUE!!! 7 wks is way to young to be bring home a puppy and taking it from his/her littermates…. I don't let puppies go till they are 10wks...

And please do not just take someone's word for it that there is no Fanconi.... please check it out for yourself. This is not to say that people are not honest.. but as they always say "Buyer Beware".... it is your responsibility to verify. Also were there any other health tests done?

As Kathy pointed out, most of the responsible breeders all know each other... so I would have to ask the same thing? Who has 7wk puppies? I have not heard of a litter.....

@Natalplum:

Shannon~Thank you so much for the offer. You are an amazing and caring person for even offering. It means so much to me and my family. Without any hesitation you would drive half way and meet me. This alone is an amazing act. I will never forget your kindness.
My husband's cousin has offered to take our B and he has another dog which would help.

Hey no problem. Glad you could find someone you know and who is closer. That will definitely work out better for you. Have a great trip.

I would suggest waiting until you get the little guy. Indi didn't have a name for abut 2 days. We had all these names in mind and none of them fit. Thats my two cents anyway (oh ya and because we did that I have a cool costume for him on haloween but I don't think I am going to get any cooperation on his end)
