  • Hi everyone!

    I'm new to this forum. I have had 4 basenjis all together.

    My first one Sebastian a red and white boy - Beautiful my first baby - born 1994 and passed away 2001 due to complications from Fanconi.

    My second Shanghai a read and white girl - Born 1996 - I think she's gone (long story for another day)

    My third Morpheus a brindle boy my oldest now he's great - Born 1999

    My fourth Shai a read and white girl my youngest and the smallest - Born 2001.

    I absolutely love Basenjis –- would never go without one well actually 2:D

    Happy to be part of this group!

  • Hi snoopyslove! Welcome to Basenji Forums!

    If you have any photos of your Basenji(s) It would be great if you can post them in the Show Off Your Dog thread.

    Let us know if you need help posting your photos or have any other questions about getting around these forums.

  • Hi and welcome! Please do post about your dog you say you think is "gone." Sounds bad. :(

  • Hi Amber, welcome to the Forums!

    Lots of fun Basenji talk here, I think you'll enjoy it.

    Give Morpheus a hug, oh, ok, Shai can have one too. Tex sends his brother a big Barroo!

    When they are with their littermates and any adults, during play when they bite to hard, the one getting bite will scream at the biter… and adults will strongly correct... this is when they learn "soft" bite... so sounds like your Rocco did not get this... This happens if removed from the adults and/or other littermates too early... So as stated, all play stops... also, I suggest that if the bite is too hard, scream/yell very loud and then stop all play

    Before you get a puppy… go to the Basenji Club of Canada and Basenji Club of America websites and read up on Fanconi and other heritable diseases. ANY breeder not testing for these disease is NOT someone you should spend your time or money on one of their puppies. Too bad you didn't look 4-5 months ago... there was a lovely litter of Khani's pups up in Drumheller! Best of luck to you!

    @mauigirl: Welcome to the forum! Do you know if your female had Fanconi?? Thanks for the information. Skylar was her name and she did not have fanconi. We do not know what caused the infection, but she lived for three and one half years after her diagnosis. The vet originally stated about 6 months, but we treated her with a blood pressure medication, 81mg asprin and later on malox. She was active and spry right up to the last 3 - 4 weeks. We do as everyone should, check our dogs with the strip test. Also thanks for the welcome…:)
