Some years back, during our Shiba Inu and Jindo period our Jindo developed a terrible rash and wht with her licking turned into huge hot spots, loss of hair and everything. Our vet narrowed it down to a grain alergy, suggested we go to an avocado based food, AvoDerm. Within 2 weeks she stopped itching and chewing, and 6 months later all her hair was grown out. As time went by she developed a beautiful luxurious coat, never had another problem with alergies or skin problems. We realize that B's dont have the long double coats like Shibas or Jindos, but our philosophy is if it ain't broke don't fix it, so we have just continued feeding AvoDerm to our B's as we accumulated our pack. The main problem with it is, if we feed them as reccomended they gain weight, so we really have to watch their diet.

Hello to everyone, We live in Hampshire in the UK, I have four basenjis, and currently show two of them who are home bred.
I look forward to talking to you all and hopefully posting pictures of my pack in due course.

Hi Jenny and Jess, and everyone else.
My 4 comprise of Rufus, he is a UK champion of whom I am undescribably proud , he was top male basenji UK last year and his most exciting win was at Crufts 2008, where he won the dog challenge certificate!!
Kia is his litter sister whom I also show successfully, she has 3 reserve challenge certificates,
Chico is again litter brother but he has only been shown twice at open shows, he actually beat Rufus at one of those! he is basically a pet and their lovely mother Fiji who has done me proud in her own right, she is retired from the show ring now.
They are all Red and White, and totally mad.
I will post photos when I have worked out how to do it!! It may take some time.

We live near Charles Dickens birthplace and Jane Austens house in Chawton, South of England on the South Downs. James Alfred Wight (James Herriot) came from Yorkshire which is a Northern County, but I guess to you that would be just up the road!
