Thanks for posting this update @Derek-Groves , our Chance is 16 and he has had seizures most of his life. It just started out of nowhere when he was a few years old and for a number of years, we tried all kinds of natural and non-natural medications. We tried Chinese herbs, CBD, diet changes then the typical meds like phenobarbitol, all somewhat helped, but he would still have recurring seizures several times a month, or sometimes a week. All in all, he probably had 100 seizures in his lifetime, but luckily no major damage other than he is a bit wobbly and has head tremors once in a while. It does not seem to bother him though and he is otherwise healthy and active for a 16 yr old. Once I found Keppra through trial and error we stuck with it and that seemed to have been the best way to curb the seizures. We went from monthly to maybe once in a few years, during major events like a house move. Today he is on 250mg of Keppra + Zonisomide every 12 hours and that does the trick, if he does have a sezure (we also have concentrated CBD tincture, which we keep bedside, injecting it into his mouth gets him out of it pretty quickly and speeds up recover. We ended up sticking a particular manufacturer for Keppra (Lupin labs), just to make sure no formula variation is introduced.
Coat Color Inheritance in basenji

one last thing for anyone to answer. ok lets say there is a 16 punnet square.
The thing is br br br br down the left side and along the top is br Br bR BR
you will get Bbrr, bbRr, bbrr, and BbRr,
Bbrr is black. bbRr is red. bbrr is Tri and BbRr is black also.
ok so here is my question. BbRr is Black but if there is a R that is a dominant Red, so what does that mean? does that mean this dog is able to produce red puppies tho it is a black and white? or does this mean that the black was just more dominant in this color pattern and it over took the red making the dog look black in color. Just curious. thanks

BbRr itd do not relate to race Basenji

I think R is here only to make difference between "r" (tricolor) and "R" (red). Just way of writing.
This link could help you
http://www.vetgen.com/canine-coat-color.htmlFor basenjis is enough to know about K locus and A locus. Black and brindle are on K locus, red and tricolor are on A locus.
Black is "the most dominant", than brindle/trindle, red and at the end "the least dominant" is tricolor.
If your "R" is for red and "r" for tricolor, your BbRr should be the same as Kk ayat (I suppose
). This is tri-factored black dog who can produce black, red and tricolor pups. -
You your entry does not apply to Basenji.is incorrect.

It could produce black puppies, red puppies or tri puppies.
I will write more when I get home from work tonight.

ok thank you lvoss. I know you will be writing more when you get home but i just want to ask. How does the B and R show up on a dog. Meaning what does the puppy look like when it has a gene of BbRr? (im not sure if that gene combo is right. just wondering that if it has both dom Blck and dom Red, what would the puppy be in color and what genes would it have?)

Thanks for the clearing. anyways ok so Kkayat is KkYy (correct?) so the dog is a black dog that has the reces tri and since it has the dom Red gene and a rec tri that is how you got the Black reds and tris? ok i think i get that now. thank you! -
ok i have a question. When you are doing a punnett square, lets say you have a dog that is DDKkYy and DDkkYy. Would you put one parent on top and one on the side and do the addition?
…...kk.....Yy
Kk..Kkkk…KkYy
Yy..kkYy...YYyyHow do you figure out what the puppy is? I dont understand how to take a parents code and put it into the punnett square. I know how to use the punnett square once its ready to be solved but i dont know how to determine where things go and how to evaluate the results (if there are more than 1 letter on each side)

Big Y is a red
small y - tricolor,saddle,agouti and recesiv gen.Can not have four different meanings -
Misspodhradsky:
tri factored black dog - Kk ayat
tri factored red dog - kk ayatUse punnett square for K locus and another punnett square for A locus:
….......K........k
k….....Kk.......kk
k........Kk.......kkSo, we have Kk (twice) and kk (twice)
A locus:
…............ay..........at
ay….......ayay.....ayat
at..........ayat......atatWe got ayay, ayat (twice), atat
Than put both, K and A locus, together (every K result with every A result):
Kk ayay - black
Kk ayat - tri factored black
Kk atat - tri factored blackkk ayay - red
kk ayat - tri factored red
kk atat - tricolorOr, with your letters:
tri factored black dog - Kk Yy
tri factored red dog - kk Yy….......K........k
k….....Kk.......kk
k........Kk.......kk…............Y..........y
Y….......YY.........Yy
y..........Yy......yyAnd than again, put all together:
Kk YY - black
Kk Yy - tri factored black
Kk yy - tri factored blackkk YY - red
kk Yy - tri factored red
kk yy - tricolor -
Big Y is a red
small y - tricolor,saddle,agouti and recesiv gen.Can not have four different meaningsYes i know that. But when you put ay, at, etc. it confuses me. I need the coding to be is Y,y, K, and k. I think thats it. but i cant follow when people add in different letter cuz i dont understand it
Which sucks cuz when you use letters i know it starts getting easier and easier lol

letter "a" located in the locus A
letter y,t,w,a, talking about hair color
otherwise you can not save
