Original Black & Whites

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • Since I have a black & white puppy, I was curious how many native black & whites are back in the pedigrees. I've found four so far. Are there more? I know there aren't that many foundation dogs so this number seems reasonable (to me at least!). Here are the ones I found:

    Miliku
    Wheeler's Poor No Friend
    Smokey
    Bwayku

    Thanks!

  • The dogs that are pretty much the foundation black and whites of the breed are Kiki of Cryon who gets her black and white from Wheeler's Poor No Friend and Miliku. I believe the majority of the black and whites today get their black from Kiki.

  • Thanks! I see what you mean, I was mixing up my terminology…native versus foundation dog...and I meant foundation. Zoni gets her black from Miliku on the Jerlin side.

    Years of research, even experts don't agree if grass makes them throw up or if they eat grass to throw up because they feel sick or if they like the taste of grass but it makes some of them throw up. If grass were in any way involved, you'd probably see grass, not just white foam.

    Wili-which is Bluestones Ubora Wili Duara. His mother was bred to a brindle, I believe. Johnny's mother (Dalji's Damisi Dhati A Duara was bred to Bluestones Wild Buckwheat (which is the brother of Wili's mother).

    Right now because Taste of The Wild High Prairie (Bison) is on the recall list, Kipawa is eating Acana kibble, NRG dehydrated food, blueberries, melons, broccoli ad other tasty, healthy things. The oil we use is Udo's 3-6-9, and I am very happy with his coat. Bless you for helping out one of these wonderful creatures.

    Yes, it was. Being on the bottom of the foot, it was quite annoying, I guess. He still licks the spot occassionally but I suspect that may be 'cause its still a somewhat fresh wound more than anything else. Amazing that such a small thing could affect his behavior the way it seems to have. I just wish I could have seen something sooner. It was obviously bothering him for quite a while b4 there were any visual (to me) signs. Gosh, makes me want one of those dog tranlsater collars from the movie "UP"…..'sqirrell' :)

    Hi, No I am not a doctor, just a head over heels in love with my basenji lady. She is my walking buddy & my lap warmer :) I am going to the Vet today for her thyroid meds…I will keep you'all posted on the results. I so hope those ears turn pink, the rash on her tummy goes away & the eges for her ears stop bleeding. ss

    White spots on tongue is not a disease but merely a symptom that is seen in many oral conditions, some benign and harmless and some serious. Although on most occasions, these white spots on tongue are asymptomatic in nature, there are times when they may be accompanied by pain and burning sensation in the mouth, especially on the intake of spicy food. Given below are the causes and treatment of white spots on tongue.The treatment of white spots on tongue will depend on the factor causing it. In case of pre-cancerous lesions, it is of utmost importance that the person stops the intake of tobacco completely. He must get the condition properly diagnosed though, to begin with, after which the doctor will mostly prescribe vitamin A supplements and ointments to apply on the lesion.
