    Hi Everyone,
    Nice to see a new board talking about my favorite subject–basenjis. My name is Laura and I live in California with my husband, two basenjis and one cat.

    When we got our first basenji -- Talker -- we had done our research and thought we were prepared to take on this beautiful breed. However, I don't think any amount of research prepared us for our first basenji. After two years of getting to know each other, both my husband and I agree that we would do it all over again. This is our breed of choice and our two basenjis have only brought us many many years of sheer love and enjoyment.

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    You will find a lot of new friends here. Do you need the site to order the cheekswab? You order it and do it at home. Very easy!

    Bungwa has a very dry mouth and I only managed to get a very tiny white patch on the test card but it was still sufficient to do the test with that. It only turns white when it's dry - the instructions are quite explicit. Of course as Pat says it could be a bad test form.

    I agree with the others that this is not a common practice among BCOA breeders. I am sorry that this happened to you and yes, you should get your deposit back.
