    @Sibbas:

    Hi, I live in the UK and have owned Basenjis for 24 years. Used to be quite active in showing, and bred a few litters but no longer breed, and my youngest Basenji is 5 so not much showing now either.

    Hello fellow brit:D

    It's nice to see someone from the UK on here apart from myself.

    What is your affix?

    Hi Seko
    My affix is Keriquel (which is a place in France, I understand!).
    Hi WBL
    I'm sorry to say I have no Basenji pics on this computer but I will sort that out.
    Hi Basi
    I know you! :)
    How are you doing?

    Hi there I thought it was you;)

    I'm fine thanks.

    I take it you are no longer showing the Basenjis then?
    Are you still showing the Sibes?

    I show Harvey (the 5 year old) very occasionally and try to to show the huskies a bit, but the cost of showing in the UK now has increased so much it's just not possible to show as much as I'd like. Pity, because I have quite a few young huskies who could do really well, including 2 with a CC.

    Yes, 2 villages in Brittany are called like that!

    @Rafismom:

    Thanks to the amazing Cheryl-Hanks mom and Kevin and Dr. Gonto we are on our way to trying everything known on Fanconi. All your posts meant the world to me! Rafi is not going to have an easy road-we caught it very late.

    Could I just ask - as I'm new to this forum but not to forums in general - why has this post and the one that follows it been made in my introduction thread? I really do think it belongs somewhere else. :confused:

    It probably happened by accident. If a person is in a hurry and didn't notice that the first post in a thread has changed they could accidently post to the wrong thread. The Admin can probably fix it.

    I moved the conversation to the right thread, it must have happened by accident.

    I saw the DNA kit in an Orvis for Dogs catalogue (you can't spend more money for a dog than with Orvis!) and in at least one other as well. I'm sure you can find one via the internet! Good luck,. Anne

    Welcome to the forum. Great story too. I especially like the description of your other dog "Betty the Sheprador Chowtriever ." That's Funny! My basenji/whippet mix also came from a local shelter. She wasn't there long enough, or perhaps they didn't know much about bs, but they only had her listed as whippet mix. Didn't take long for a dog savy friend of mine to mention the word "basenji." No doubt in my mind, she is basenji and something. I picked her out and my mother paid for her. Best Christmas present I ever got!

    I wouldn't recommend getting a basenji until you've organized your new schedule with baby. basenjis are wonderful dogs, but require a lot of attention and stimulation. If you can't provide that, he could become a frustrated dog and cause mischeif. I've also read that they aren't the best with children. I haven't had the best experience with my basenji and daughter. It has a lot to do with the fact that we can't give him sufficient attention and exercise like he needs. he also hasn't adjusted to my daughter's presence either. that may not be a problem for you because you're having baby first then dog. they say its always a plus because it allows the child to establish a dominence over the dog, since child was there first. i don't want to be a sour apple, but i just want to let families with children know that it can be difficult and dangerous if proper care isn't given. its also unfair to the precious breed if they cant have the active life they need and crave.
