My Basenji Curious George

    My name is Helen Schneider of Huntsville, Texas and I have a wonderful basenji named George.
    Trying to post a picture of my Curious George but I am not that great with computers.
    My George is 18 years old !! we found him dumped !! in a remote area north of Midway, Texas.
    He and his "wife" had about 5 puppies when we resued them in 1999.
    He is a hand full but he has enriched my life like I never would have thought.
    Just wondering if George may be one of the oldest basenjis ?
    He has pulmonary fibrosis and was diagnosed in 2013. He currently has a steriod inhaler that has helped.

    I have to go read your link, but having been called to the shelter to see a chow that was an overweigh pomeranian, a rottweiler that was a lovely hound dog (Rottie rescue in FL told me keep quiet, they knew it wasn't a rottie but had a good home so just get it. I expected a LITTLE Rottweiler looking... bahahaha, no.)... vets who thought our basenjis were so many other things, not much surprises me.

    As mine age I try to keep a bit of weight on them because I know they may reach a stage when they just don't keep weight as the organs weaken.

    Thank you all for your comments, went away for a few days on a beach a few hours away from home, and took photos;will have to learn to put them on the forum now. By tomorrow, some of mon petit monstre sera sur le forum. She loved the beach and spent hours playing and looking at the sea. What energy!! I was exhausted but she kept going and then fall asleep suddenly, not wanting to leave the soft sand bed. A real pleasure to have so much space and time to play!
