Hello and welcome:D

Hi Bart! :) From which area in Ohio are you from? What vet do you go to??

[RedVelvetLynx]

@BART:

Do you think Golden Retriever owners have as much to talk about??:D

:D I very much doubt it!

I live in the Dayton area, my vet is Dr. Tracy Leonard. I was turned on to her by a fellow B owner, whose name I can't recall, shortly after I got my first one. I was walking the dog down a fairly well travelled road and this woman pulled her car over and was so excited to see a Basenji. She, apparently, had 2. We talked for some time and she told me about this vet who raised Basenjis and since I was not all that crazy about the vet we had been to originally (on advise from a co-worker) I took him to Dr. Tracy. Been going to her ever since. Nice lady and great staff. :D:D

Great, you got a few pics in your album. Beautiful young boy!

Welcome to you and Arleigh. What an interesting name, too!

[snorky998]

Welcome, and thank you for sharing those adorable pictures.

[MacPack]

Welcome! I love Arleigh's window seat, he is a very handsome boy. And you are so lucky to be able to go to Dr. Tracy, most of us feel lucky to have a vet that knows what a basenji is.

Welcome Bart!

That window shot is a classic:) I think you'll find a bunch of people who share the Basenji curse/passion here:D

:) Good for you - we live about 4 hrs away & I still consider taking our Bs to her. I don't know Dr. Leonard, but I've heard & read nothing but good things about her. It's hard indeed to find a vet with extensive basenji knowledge. I don't know any basenji owners in my immediate area
either, but I'm occasionally approached by people who know what breed of dog I have - always perks me up!

Yup, Dr. Tracy is great… known her for years... both as a friend and fellow breeder....

[BART]

Wow! It is a small, world isn't it? I kinda figured some of you would know Doc Tracy but its always nice to have a personal opinion confirmed.

It is a small world… interesting thing is that in Basenjis you will find that most all responsible breeders know each other... maybe not personally, but they have heard about them or know they breedings.
