    I'm sorry, I didn't mean to imply that bacterial poisoning can't happen, just that there is not a big risk of it happening. In all my research about raw, I've come upon a few other "deaths by bacteria." Now I know about one more. I'm sorry you lost your dog this way, nobarkus.

    No no that's Ok, I almost lost her. She lived on for 17-1/2 great years. We're all here to help each other by exchanging information and experiences.

    My bad. My eyes skipped over the "almost" part the first time I read it. How wonderful that she was with you for so long! That's amazing under any circumstances.

    Hi Michelle, Did you get in touch with Kelli to let her know about Lenny? Sorry to hear you're having issues. Rocky is doing great now, no more cancer. Lenny as you know is Rocky's older brother. Kathryn

    Never heard anything bad about raw eggs in the diet for Basenjis. However, my older male pukes even at the mention of eggs:(. My younger girl LOVES them, too much. (My loved but chubby one:))

    My Diego does the same thing, breath hard and irregular, twitch his eyes, shake a little, etc. I never really worried about it because we figured it was dreams, and when we woke him up he would be fine..

    mmm Sounds Tasty. I cooked Cairo's food for the first few years, then moved him to a raw meat diet for a few years. We had a Dalmation who liked raw food, and though she mothered Cairo he would eat this food unusually fast to stop her from getting it first. But when she died, he went off the raw meat so I resummed cooking it up. These days I find he prefers cooked food and eats more of it than with the raw stuff. But it never seemed to do him any harm so good luck with finding a diet that your B likes.
