  • aww thanks everyone and i already want another basenji i saw a puppy at the dog park yesterday and it just made me want another one all the more!

  • Well, BRAT has a lot of very nice b's who would love to have a nice basenji girl to play with.
    Maybe one day you will post that photo.

  • @tanza:

    She is very cute… who did you get her from?

    the spca believe it or not.

  • You should think about getting DNA test done for Fanconi… go to www.basenjihealth.org and read about it…. it is worth the money to easy your mind.. or if the worst happens, be prepared for what might be...

    should i look into this because of where i got her?

  • @xnekovampx:

    No, you should look into it because you don't know where she came from and have no information if her Sire and Dam were DNA tested for Fanconi.

  • Did you get Lilly from the Largo SPCA? I know of 2 other basenjis adopted from there in the last 6 months!

    We get together every Sunday morning (weather permitting) at a large dog park in Tampa, (West Park) you are welcome to bring Lilly over to meet the pack. We often have 10-12 basenjis there running and playing. We occasionally do a 'road trip' to Crest Lake Park in clearwater, that is a really nice park too.

    okay thank you.

  • You should be strip testing her, until you can get the DNA testing done.
    Let me know if you need info on this.

    You should share a photo of your mix. We'd all love to meet her.

    @Motala - That is good that you talked to Jan and glad to hear that she had not been spayed. I still think that your Vet and you should connect with Dr. Gonto about your girl's blood work and blood gas results and if he has any thoughts about it.

    Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him. http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/

    @basenjilovers - She is very cute, please make sure that DNA testing was done for Fanconi and PRA. And if not or you are not sure, you can get the test kits at www.ofa.org. You do the test as it is a cheek swab.
