My Basenji Curious George

Member Introductions
  • 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.

  • Wow 18 is extremely old. Congrats on keeping him going to such an great age.

    He's a hungry dog today. Gave him 1/2 cup in the morning and just a few minutes ago. He had no problem eating. I'm much more happy that he's eating now. He likes his bone as well. Not too much into the Kong yet. I just wish he didn't cry in his crate when I put him in there. Feel bad for him but I know it just takes adjusting. He is perfectly fine when I return home after he's been in there awhile. It's just the initial time. To be honest though, this transition went far better than I expected. I was prepared for the worst. This little guy has done very well.

    I would love to get some Bs together for a play date. I'm starting to think Lenny may only be dog aggressive with non B's. He and Tayda spent a month with 6 other B's and it was fine! Anyone near the Ann ARbor, Michigan area? Michelle
