    Have to agree with what Sharon, Andrea & Pat have already said…hold off on getting a pup until you have more time and enjoy the baby time with Aiden. I think the other thing, is that if you introduced a pup even within 6 months, Aiden will still be baby and the puppy will already grow to adult or near adult by the time Aiden is a toddler. An adult might not be as tolerant of a toddler pulling (ears & tails) & poking. Just a thought.

And he is doing GREAT, in fact I had a few friends over yesterday and we were ALL playing with Jack and Aiden and had NO problems!! (Jack got into the bathroom trash but thats normal @@) I'm VERY excited about not having to let Jack go…Im really hoping this works because so far (knock on wood) thing are going GREAT! I wanted to thank you all for the support and I promise to let you ALL know whats going on and how things are progressing!! IM EXCITED!!!!:D

    I am so so glad to hear this. It really did sound like you and your hubby cared enough about Jack to overcome these trying times. And I know it would be so so difficult for you to give Jack up. I really hope things work out–and it sure sounds like you are doing everything possible to make it work.

    Excellent! I hope the training does the trick, but you may have a few "2 steps forward and 1 step backward" times, just keep up the work and be patient. New babies are one of the many reasons basenjis get placed in rescue, it is just overwhelming to have the new baby, no sleep, and a dog whose world has changed and may not react well to the changes. Sounds like you have found a good person to work with, and Jack will stay your boy after all!

    Good Luck,

    I have been away from the forum for a bit of time due to work and well since we have our 2nd B, my hands are really full at home but I decided to come in and check on my old basenji friends. I remember when you frst announced ur pregnancy and have followed you through the whole thing and reading up on Jacks attachment and behavior with you. I came on and was sad to read that you had decided to give him up, though I do agree at that time, it was best and now I'm so happy to read things are working out. I wish you the best and look forward to reading more updates. Best wishes!

    ew. :p

    Maybe it's a re-establishing of his "ownership" of you, since you went away with "the new guy"?

    Just a guess…....

    Just curious, what does Jack do if you put him in a large wire crate?

    Mounting is usually a sign of domination. He could be seeing himself as the alpha, trying to re-establish the pack order ?

    Breeding once a year actually is not a problem health wise. Breeding to produce pets for income… not so much.

    I just wanted to respond to this thread. I hope everything is going good with you and things are working out. The thing I wanted to respond to was the thought that a man may have abused him since he does not do well with men. A basenji can make their mind up about disliking something for no reason at all. My first Basenji was with me from 6 weeks of age and never had a man abuse him and at two years old decided he hated men for the next two years. I kept him socialized and kept getting men to feed him pet him while I had him stacked and holding his head, had them talk to him, go over hime etc. after a while his dislike left as quickily as it came. I have had a few dogs do this sort of stuff between 12 and 18 months I call it the stupid stage, they all the sudden don't like men, women, the grooming table, the trash can outside etc. It is important to work them through their fear so they can be a complete dog. Just think how it would be for you if say you were scared of men but had to see them daily just think how stressful your life would be. I hope if you keep him you help him get through this or if you place him please be honest with the new owners and recommend that they get him out and work him through this.

    Oh man, all I can say is this is so sad. :( I read previous messages and everything looked like the puppy, whether Fanconi and health tested or not, was going to be a forever addition to a (new) family. Maybe the puppy was pushed on someone, or maybe not enough was known about the breed. I just hope he can find his forever home through BRAT, which I would also say is the best choice in this situation.

    @dwilliams: Sorry for inconvenience-Updated website profile, accidently lost half while doing so, but her number is HP31186401- I guess My mishap has lead to paperwork being too recent to show up. And meant to respond to this earlier, depends on who they go to and specifics on spade/neuter & AKC 'limited'. Was this a planned breeding? Only reason I ask is that she is pretty young (only 1 1/2yrs) to be bred. And thanks for the AKC number. You might want to send the information to Sally for the pedigree site, since seems she is not there yet. Who is her sire and dam? http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/search.html

    @bellabasenji: It all boils down to what is better for the (so called)"breeders" wallets!!!:mad: UUuuugh… BYB's & millers!!!:mad: That is true, a pure for profit breeder is not going to spend money on health testing that is going to cut into their bottom line. They will do as little testing as they can do and still sell puppies. Educating as many people as possible to demand health testing for both parents is the best thing that we can do for the breed. There will always be some who want a puppy "right now" and won't care but the more people we can educate the smaller the market for puppy mill dogs because really most people do want to do the right thing and want a healthy puppy that will be a long lived companion.
