Hey there folks!

Since this is my first post, let me introduce myself. I'm Danny from Brooklyn. At 33, I'm an entrepreneur in progress living with my GF. We've been considering a puppy for a while now, and after a TON of research, a Basenji is at the top of our list. We're looking for reputable breeders within a reasonable distance of NYC (we're totally willing to travel a ways, so "reasonable" is relative) who might be willing to talk to us and eventually arrange a visit to learn more about them, to see if we might find a fit for our home.

Does anyone have experience with a breeder in the Northeast who would be good for us to reach out to? We have family in DC and Pennsylvania as well, and we're happy to go for a drive/weekend trip in the other direction. We're also open to adoption, but we do know that we want a puppy.

Thanks!

EDIT: We found a pup from a breeder in VA and will be picking him up in a few weeks.

@jengosmonkey LOL.... that is what is happening... and people fall for it... don't do it... too many scam sites... and the pups you are seeing are pup's pictures that are stolen from other sites... these are not real... the posts that I have made and insisted that I would not be interested unless they supplied sire/dam names and the conversation has gone "dark"... and they have not and I am sure will not supply the information I have requested... DO NOT send money, do NOT believe their information.. these are scams... period

I know that picture of Bing well - it hangs in pride of place in the hall. I can only guess how you came by it as I would think his breeder would have been the only person we gave a copy to!

Thanks for the info re Fanconi. We will obviously keep that very much in mind.

@tanza:

I doubt there will be much swelling… and I would not use the Rimadyl unless you really need to.... of course I am not a fan of Rimadyl

The site looks good this morning. I did give him a Rimadyl last night, since I wanted him to sleep well and not bother the site.
I think now that may have been a mistake.

Maybe a little pain would be a good thing. He's behaving perfectly normally, actually a little more nutsy, I think, after being contained all day yesterday.
I hope he knows what he's doing…....:)

Magnum doesn't really have a problem with wet surfaces or rain, unless it's really pouring. Not that he wants to stay out there long, mind you.

Lenora's story reminded me of a very cold (-3 degrees F, with the windchill way colder than that) day this past winter. I put Magnum's boots on for our morning walk as usual. As usual, he had them kicked off about half-way through the mile walk (with me gathering them up as they came off). Once they were all off (with Magnum grinning from ear to ear, "Got'em off again, Mom! This is a fun game!"), he very quickly started lifting one paw after the other off the cold, frozen ground for a few seconds at a time. Finally, he plopped down in the middle of the dirt road, all four paws tucked beneath him and refused to get up. I had to carry him (all 27 pounds) back to the house a 1/2-mile away. He just wouldn't let me put those boots back on! As he was tucked up in the middle of the road, he looked at me and seemed to say, "I am not moving one INCH! You can't make me! You are tryin' my patience! First you put those sillly boots on my that I gotta get off and now THIS!"
