New member in New Mexico

Member Introductions
  • Hello, introductory post for me. My wife and I presently have two male Basenjis, both red and whites. They are, Ramses who is now 16-1/2 years old now and Arthur who is 12-1/2 years. Both in good health despite their ages. We have had them both since they were about a year old back when we lived in Ohio. They are rescue basenjis and have done very well. We have recently relocated to New Mexico just north of Albuquerque and the dogs are loving the heat this time of year. Very little adjustment issues to the high elevations here. Anyway...hello! Mike.

  • Hi Mike. Welcome to the forum! Congratulations on the longevity of your boys. Pictures would be nice! :)

  • Yes, I will have to add the photos...! Thank you for the welcome!

  • WELCOME! Your guys' ages are impressive! Can't wait for pictures!

  • Hi Mike,

    Welcome to basenji forums community! Looking forward to pictures and stories.

    Every single person who loves the breed has a right to care when irresponsible breeders get support. I am sorry you don't get that. Nor was it s lecture...it was facts.

    Whatever she is, she's a little doll. It's nice to know that the displaced pups are finding such good homes.

    Sorry if we sound so disagreeable … but it is so important that the health of our breed is #1 on everyones list and that everyone understands and does as much health testing as possible before breeding... especially since we have genetic problems that we can't test for, the family tree becomes our only way of knowing what we might expect... and it is only fair to people thinking about getting a Basenjis as a family companion that they know what they might expect..... Everyone should visit the BCOA Health site (www.basenjihealth.org) and learn what is being done to find genetic testing and what everyone can do to help
