Another Stormie Update


  • Stormie had a vet visit today for a blood gas test, full blood panel, and urinalysis. It went superbly!!!! Little Man is doing wonderfully on the Protocol and is still stable! No increase in bicarbs or potassium! His results are spot on! I couldn't be more pleased with how he's doing! And even better, no more vet visits for 6 months unless something drastic happens!! This is the second stable result in a row he's had so I'm proud as peacock of my little Storm - he's such a trooper!! :D

    How WONDERFUL…. way to go Stormie!!!! and Lorraine for being a wonderful Basenji MOM....

    Another public service announcement...:D

    Remember to strip test your Basenjis monthly.... consider the DNA test for Fanconi (will be available in March again, go to www.basenjihealth.org)), and last and MOST important, go to a responsible breeder for a pup…. do your homework..... ask for test results, do not just take their word for it.... a puppy is for life!!!


  • Thank-you, Pat! I couldn't be happier!!! :D

    Oh, and 2 thumbs and 4 paws up on the P.S.A.!!!!! :)

    Hugs to Isis… and hopefully the blood gases were done and that Dr. Gonto was able to help you and your Vet with the right protocol program for Isis.... And there is a Fanconi yahoo list for only people with affected dogs. It would really be good for you to join that list. If you seach the yahoo list for Basenjis and Fanconi you should be able to find it.

    My girls keep themselves pretty clean. The first heat is usually the messiest, and even then, it isn't too bad. The place I notice it the most is if they sleep in the bed, then I recommend you get a set of DARK sheets and duvet cover ;) I don't care fore the britches, because every female I have used them on got a vaginits infection because they couldn't keep herself clean.

    Stores also carry those bean bags that you can heat up (humans use them as heating pads). We got Lexi one at Petsmart recently. She LOVES it. You put it in the microwave for 30 seconds and it heats up the inside. We put it in her bed and she'll go circle on it and then plop down right in the middle. It's too cute!! You might want to try that- it's a nice alternative to having an electric heating pad.
