Yay, I have been accepted.

  • Sharron, That's what i did the first time, and it was all good, then both sponsors changed their mind without telling me and decided that they needed Medjai to be neutered to be my sponsors. I got Medjai neutered because of the CPP results (still slightly questionable), and apparently never got accepted.

    Pat, I was trying to change my address listed with the BCOA, to my parents, so I can still get mail, and won't have to worry about lost mail when I do move in May, and got a response from Anne. She wrote me saying that the reason I had trouble updating my address, is that I was never accepted into the BCOA.

    I find this really confusing, because I got a welcome packet, and a complimentary copy of the yodeler, and a directory. I assumed that the welcome papers, and bylaws with the directory was an indicator that I was accepted, or why would I need a paper copy of all the paperwork available online, and a welcome packet.

  • If you got the directory, doesn't that mean you WERE accepted?

  • That's exactly what I thought.

  • @etzbseder:

    That's exactly what I thought.

    You should email Anne and find out exactly what the deal is… I am pretty sure that I saw that you were voted in?

  • Yes, contact BCOA and ask!

  • After contacting BCOA, I got the answer that basically there were clerical errors, and I need to find two new sponsors, and resubmit my complete application. Now that I'm living in Greeley full time and there is no Basenji club here, I will be looking on the forum again.

  • @etzbseder:

    I got Medjai neutered because of the CPP results (still slightly questionable)…

    Just curious, but what do you mean by the CPP results being slightly questionable?

  • Oh, I've just got a separate issue with the fanconi results, that I'm getting straightened out, it's just weird that everything hit at the same time.

  • I am confused.

    DID they send you a Welcome Letter and then a Roster and now are saying you aren't a member???

  • YES, it was a mistake (I'm told) on their part, and I was not actually accepted. Therefor I am on the hunt again for sponsors, which is harder this time, as I am in Greeley more full time and don't have availability to drive to denver for the HCBC events, and don't see any upcomming shows for awhile.

    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.
