@Mildred-Mayhem I don't think climate is the cause (as I am in the Southern U.S.). Nor do I think that it is related to foods. So, I'm wondering if the undercoat is directly related to age. Is there a big age difference among your B's?
Some kind of preperation I guess?

We 'dog -sat' my friends 8 month old chocolate lab this weekend -
all in the name of better preperation for a Basenji pup. So plenty of walks, up in the night to let him out for a wee, early morning wake ups, etc etc.
All went really well and both my kids got involved and enjoyed it.
Not a Basenji, granted, but more valuable pre-pup training!

The preparation doesn't hurt that's for sure. The kids can learn the responsibilities of dog ownership. You just don't want the Basenji to be a novelty that wears off.
