    Hi everyone,

    writing from Quebec Canada, French canadian.

    I'm the owner of a second Basenji, first one passed away on a stupid accident on beginning of October, so we have a second one now and we love her so much. We still miss the other one, but life must go on !

    Her name is Mia and shes 2 month and a half

    Have a good day all

    sorry to hear about your first dog. Hopefully you can protect the new one from such events. We do the best we can, but things happen. :(

    Welcome to the board. Please share pictures.

    They are absolutely adorable to live with! People warned us when we got our first pup (we have mature two sisters now) but we fell in love with the breed and have no regrets. You have to be patient, though, with lots of humour, because they WILL test you.

    Congrats on your puppy…. has he (or his sire/dam) been health tested for Fanconi and PRA with the DNA test? Very important this if this has not been done for his Sire/Dam that you have your boy tested. And even if they have been tested, never hurts to follow up with having him done also.

    Most people incorrectly use the terms dominant and dominance with regard to dogs. Here is a good blog post by Dr. Sophia Yin on the topic. http://drsophiayin.com/blog/entry/dominance_in_dogs_is_not_a_personality_trait

    I didn't know much about B's when I met Champ but to say that what characteristics B's share is "special needs" is plain idiotic. I consider it a blessing to have familiarized (and still learing) with this wonderful breed. It has made me realize that all dogs are not the same and it's important to learn as much about what makes them individuals as possible. I'm glad Raleigh found you and is now able to express himself freely without being labeled "special needs."
