Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • :) I'm looking for a new vet for my girl , her
    Current one is good , but I'd like one that has experience with
    Basenjis , or one that also always just takes walk ins ? ( great in one aspect odd on the other )
    :) if anyone knows , please let me know , Apex is great but it's in Langley and to far for me since I
    Practically live 15 mins away from YVR (Vancouver Int'l Aiport)

  • You can find Kipawa on here to message her to see who she uses.

    Combo vaccine? Hope that you mean distemper/parvo, not distemper/parvo and rabies… shots should always be separated by a few weeks inbetween... They can be really hard on dogs immune systems given all at one time

  • Distemper and parvo, she had her rabies last month ;) in the first week of may

    When I took my puppy to my vet, he said he had little knowledge of the Basenji, but he would start reading up on them. Since that time, he's thanked me for the opportunity, and says he is learning more all the time - at our last visit for final puppy shots he said he felt he was becoming quite an expert - if you come across a vet who doesn't have a lot of knowledge about them, he could quite easily love the challenge and become great on the Basenji issues. I told him I'd sent for the DNA marker kit and had Shaye tested (thank God, it was clear), and he launched into a really good discussion about the symptoms, illness, etc., and said he was glad I'd done that, but maybe in a while we would do some blood work to be sure of everything. I feel very confident with him now - so, a good vet with a love to be challenged can be an answer too.

    Thanks guys, I did email Sue at apubasenji's and she forwarded my email to someone on the board who lives close to me. The vet I've been using is fine but I really don't think he's all that familiar with Basenji's and I would rather take my two to someone who is!!
