@lynnecnm - You should have your pup DNA tested for Fanconi, it is a cheek swab test that you do and cost 65.00. You can order the test at www.ofa.org and welcome to the Forum!
Hi from Montreal

OK the Sire, Postal Code, was born on 6 nov 1998 and his number is HY574893 and the Dam, Downwright LonesomeDove, was born on 12 nov 2000 and her number is KW777254.
And yes looking at the pedigree both sire and dam are grandchildren of Arumbec's the Victor. I am going to look up the rest of the pedigree here and see if there are any more crossovers to carriers/affected dogs… Damn.

Sorry, I meant the DOB for your dog. Sally has the info on the parents. That is how Pat found that your pup is a double Victor great granddaughter.

There are many, many Victor kids, grandkids, great grandkids, out there that are either clear or only carriers… so that is why it is good to test... then you know... and know if you need to worry or not... or at least know what you need to maybe be prepared for.....

Hi, I'm also from Montreal.
I want to know if you know the price range of Nancy Kneen's basenjis. I bought my first one off kijiji, but I want to get one more. So far it seems that Tagati's place is the only option. I tried calling and e-mailing but no reply…
thanks for your help!

Welcome you and your beautiful girl. It sounds like you are doing a good thing and raising a very well trained dog. We are still working on maners and such at our house, next week we head off to Obecience Classes as well..
Again, a warm welcome.Basenjimamma
