Welcome..where did you get your basenji from? Some of us are "related" by dogs.
I think you will find lots of information here.
We all love photos, when you have time to share them.
@elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch.
If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !
Delighted that Kane is finally on the mend - you will see his weight gain in leaps and bounds now he no longer has those unwelcome little visitors.
Keep a close eye on him though and get back to the vet at the first sign of any more troubles.
good luck to you both !
