  • Hi all! I joined awhile ago but never introduced myself or my BGirl, Gadget (Echelon-Rafiki Charisma)

    Gadget is the third Basenji I have owned in my lifetime. I acquired her from Heather Ervin, Echelon Basenjis in March 2008. We had a BGirl, Sophie, that we acquired from Brat for about 5 years but sadly had to help her cross the Rainbow Bridge in November 2007.

    My life hasn't been the same since I got Gadget. I formed two wonderful friendships with Heather Ervin (Echelon Basenjis) and Melody Falcone (Melar Basenjis). These two gals have taught me a lot and inspired me to try my hand at showing Gadget. Gadget and I just had our very first show in Omaha on July 19th and we got WB and BOS for our very First Point.

    Gadget is a very smart girl, who loves to be with me 24/7. She is my shadow. She has brought so much joy to our lives after Sophie's passing. She is a much different dog than Sophie was. Sophie was not your typical Basenji. All Sophie wanted to do was eat and sleep in every single sun spot in the house. She was a super laid back girl. Gadget on the other hand is very playful, full of energy and wants to be everywhere I am.

    What a sweet little boy–having a non-basenji sister/brother is great, it gives them a "positive role model"!

    At 18 months and 7lbs I very much doubt that he's got Basenji in him but who knows. It doesn't matter,- he's a delightfulchap and good to have you both on here. Looking forward to more pictures.

    The choice is most certainly yours. And thank you for your interest in our breed. And now you may be able to educate others about the breed we care for.
