    Hello Everyone,
    I'm a new member. I just watched your slide show, it was great. I recently lost my 14 year old Basenji. It's been 1 1/2 months ago and I still cry everyday. I'm having such a hard time. I love seeing other Basenji's and reading about them.

    I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my basenji boy Max in November of last year. He was almost 16, and I had him from a pup. I found this site the first of the year, and it has been such a great place and has really helped me through this transition period–just to connect with others who know and love basenjis. Like member Basenji Boy says--special dogs special people....

    Welcome to the Basenji Forum, Reggie! My shi tzu Bandit died 4 years ago after a stroke at the age of 16. He was like my youngest child. My younger son had just turned 10 when we got the dog and he was 27 when the dog died! I still can't look at pictures of him without crying. I have to remind myself that he was a good dog and he had a happy life for more years than most dogs get.

    I am sorry to hear about your loss. I also have just lost my basenji girl 3 weeks ago and understand the feeling you are talking about.

    Think fondly on those memories and time spent together. Those memories will always be yours. I hope that you might consider sharing some stories about your basenji with us.

    They all have so much character!

    @Motala - That is good that you talked to Jan and glad to hear that she had not been spayed. I still think that your Vet and you should connect with Dr. Gonto about your girl's blood work and blood gas results and if he has any thoughts about it.

    Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him. http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/

    @msjames, @tanza did you a solid favor outlining expectations. Networking really is key to finding a "reputable" breeder. Most show their dogs and are connected to other breeders through showing. They all seem to know who is planning a litter and who isn't. I completely agree with Pat that you should meet your breeder in person prior to the puppies even being born. You can learn a lot. Is a Basenji right for you? If you want a dog to hang with you in the driveway with the garage door open as you chat with neighbors, or stand calmly with the front door open as you receive a UPS package... ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Basenjis will bolt. they'll be gone in a second. They see it. They chase it. And if you think you have them trained... no. They've trained you. When they see it they will chase it. Basenjis, in my experience, need exercise. Mine get two walks a day. When they don't, they can be destructive. They're not shy about expressing frustration or displeasure through chewing up your best stuff. A big secure yard can mitigate this, but that's not a guarantee. They love seeing outside, so keep your blinds and drapes open otherwise they may open them themselves even if that requires chewing through them. They will climb onto windowsills, tables and low counter tops. They are capable of scaling a six-foot fence. They are known to climb trees. These are extreme examples, but better to know now. They are super affectionate. They can be trained... to a point. They are clowns and provide endless entertainment. A Basenji baroo is the best sound ever! They love to snuggle and will sleep on your bed and under the spreads and sheets if you let them. They love to share body heat. Tail twitches when I return home are the best!

    @basenjilovers - She is very cute, please make sure that DNA testing was done for Fanconi and PRA. And if not or you are not sure, you can get the test kits at www.ofa.org. You do the test as it is a cheek swab.
