    Hi everyone!
    I wanted to introduce myself as a new member. My husband and I have a 12 year old female red and white Basenji. Her name is Sienna. Her health is excellent, but we wanted some information from other parents of "senior" dogs. I've read that the average life expectancy is 10-12yrs, but Sienna is so vibrant!! With the exception of a little bit of arthritis and a kidney stone removed two years ago, she is just great. If anyone has an older Basenji, Sienna and I would love to hear from you.

    Thanks!!!

    Welcome abaker! This is a very good place for all Basenji info. Some here have or know of some B's that have lived 16+ years. I'm a new BASENJI-mix owner - emphasis on the B part of him, now 1 yr old. Please post some pictures. Have fun. :)

    Sorry, no, I'm in San Diego. But if you ever head South…:D It looks like there's a pretty active club up in your neck of the woods. Maybe they have meetups you could join? Not so much here, that I know of, though a lovely woman I met through Karen has 3 b's in a community near here. We have 2 basenji mixes in our neighborhood that we've discovered (your dog will find those for you if you take her to a dog park or a popular walking area). Congrats again - can't remember if your post said this was your first B, but aren't they just amazing?

    Thank you for your reply Seko. Bandit is 11 weeks this Wednesday 6th Sept. When he turns around bearing his teeth and growling after being told off for being naughty, I point my finger at him saying a LOUD NO!! He doesn't like it, puts his ears back and looks at me. I have bought a clicker and will attempt to train him and my Lowchen "Alfie" together with liver treats. Wish me luck!! Angee
