  • Welcome to our pack (gee didn't realize there were so many of the "royalists" here :)). You know what they say about a tri … they're tri-ing :D

  • Welcome to you and Patrick - he sounds very typical and I hope you enjoy him!
    You'll enjoy the forum - everybody is very friendly and have so many interesting topics to talk about.

    How did you decide on the name?

  • Yes he is very typical of the breed - his nickname is The Beast! His real name however comes from my son - I said he could name the Basenji when he arrived. After trying out several (Basil, Kofi amongst others) we kind of stuck with Patrick (Pat for short) - and my son liked the name after we flew to Prague and the pilot was apparently called Patrick (I don't take much notice of these things but I guess to an 11 year old pilots are exciting people!) I am enjoying this Forum and it is great to read about Basenjis and be amongst people with dogs who behave like mine does !

  • it is great to read about Basenjis and be amongst people with dogs who behave like mine does !

    I agree, when things get really frustrating it is nice to know that at least X amount of people across the world have the same problems I do with my B, it brings me some kind of solace..LOL

    @alay Google Northern Basenji Society. On the website you will find contact email addresses. Nothing available for this year now but you might find a breeder and get onto a waiting list for 2022

    Welcome and so sorry to hear about the health issues of your two B's…. Thank you for opening up your home to them... And Thank Goodness we now have DNA tests for Fanconi so that no Basenji ever has to suffer with this horrible affliction.

    I look forward to your pictures. I'm a technophobe too - I keep telling myself I can do it but so far haven't posted any. One of my bitches was spoiled for the show ring by such a judge who didn't know how to approach a hound (although he was a Saluki judge and should have!). She was experienced at showing as well but was traumatised because when she backed away at his front on, silly voice approach she nearly fell from the table! Of course she blamed the fall on his approach. I worked on her intensively but to no avail. Yes, Basenjis on the whole are friendly and they never forget a friend either!
