Some years back, during our Shiba Inu and Jindo period our Jindo developed a terrible rash and wht with her licking turned into huge hot spots, loss of hair and everything. Our vet narrowed it down to a grain alergy, suggested we go to an avocado based food, AvoDerm. Within 2 weeks she stopped itching and chewing, and 6 months later all her hair was grown out. As time went by she developed a beautiful luxurious coat, never had another problem with alergies or skin problems. We realize that B's dont have the long double coats like Shibas or Jindos, but our philosophy is if it ain't broke don't fix it, so we have just continued feeding AvoDerm to our B's as we accumulated our pack. The main problem with it is, if we feed them as reccomended they gain weight, so we really have to watch their diet.
Hello from Mexico!!

Hey Basenji-lovers,
I'm from Mexico City, and at the time I have no dogs… which is sad, I know. The first time I saw a Basenji pic I insatntly fell in love... then I did an extensive reaserch on the breed and I fell in love even more!!
I have 22 years old and I'm an entrepreneur and stock trader (my own money). I study Business.
Now I'm certain that the dog I want to be my friend for the next years is a Basenji. Actually, I would prefer a Tri-color male... but if the puppy is cute I wouldn't mind if he is not.
Here comes the problem, a really big one: There are no proper breeders in Mexico, just families that decide to sell their puppies ocassionaly... but they're really hard to find. Actually... that's a good business opportunity for american and international entrepreneurs, since I know that the market would be willing to accept this breed.
Well.... returning to the point, I joined the forum to see if any breeder is willing to ship to Mexico City.If you happen to be a breeder please contact me: albertovillat@hotmail.com
Or if you know somebody that knows somebody, please copy this post and send it to him/her.Best regards,
AlbertoPd. Sorry for my english, my grammar still sucks a little.

Welcome to the forum Alberto!
We had a girl in Quer?taro, Mexico.
She loved her life there but met an untimely demise when killed by a pitbull :mad:
The guy that had my girl went to college in Mexico, then came tothe US for another college degree before returning back to Mexico with one of my puppies.
His family loved her and it was a perfect place to bask in the sun all day long!
Feel free to visit my website, as we have a couple of puppies still available. -
Welcome to the forum! I hope you will find the right puppy soon

Goodluck on your hunt!!!
