    I used Wisdom Panel for my assumed Basenji mix. It showed no basenji at all. My boy is 32 lbs and short hair. His DNA says he is 25% American Eskimo 12.5% Boston Terrier 12.5% Chow Chow 12.5% German Shepherd 12.5% Miniature Schnauzer 25% Breed Group-Sporting, Herding, Hound, Terrier. Having owned basenjis all my life I would say my boy has basenji in him by his personality and behavior regardless of what his dna says!!

    You are doing great ! A Resco has a blade and there is no crushing. This is another reason I have never let the Vet trim nails even though this is included in the monthly 'plan' of monthly payment to alleviate sudden shocks to the wallet. My dogs got neglected during and immediately after hip replacement surgery so once I was fit enough, I dremelled them daily for a week before getting back to normal routine. The 'up side' for them was more 'special biscuits' - rewards they get after nail cutting !!! Snow is promised here but not immediately -

    Thanks for the nice comments! @Kipawa: What a lovely private little area to have time to play. Lovely pics of Gizmo, he is quite the poser! :) Yes, he does like to stand proud. :p @Basenjimamma: What a wonderful find…good for you and Gizmo. Great pictures, is summer finally there? Not quite. We might get one or two days of intense sun and heat, only to get a cold cloudy or rain filled day the next. It's really messed up! Like today, all clouds…so depressing. :( @vickilb: None of those nasty German Shepards there to ruin a nice day!!!! Damn straight! ;) Although there is a riding (horses) path in the same area, and we ran into them on our way home. Gizmo was frozen in his tracks when he spotted them!

    I love the pictures - it looks as though he is well recovered from his ordeal.

    Hi Chellie- We had heard that the UC Davis area was very well known for it's vet activities. That said, we're not vets! This was just a way to get a sense of learning what this special dog is, that we've become so attached to. Any answer we get will only make her more special! ALM
