  • Hello, just wanted to introduce myself. I am Melisa Skillman. I have been owned by basenjis for 8 years starting my 9th. I have 4 wonderful dogs one of which I am looking for his forever home for. Diamond is my matriarch then Jaz, Frankie and Shadey. My Daughter Latasha also enjoys the breed but she also has a whippet, Khloe. i look forward to learning new things from this forum. I also hope to meet some new and wonderful friends. :)

  • Hi Melisa :) When did you move?!?

    Yay!!! As you can see from my quote above, I have been looking for other Basenji slaves from WV! (I recently posted in the Chit Chat section). I am so delighted to have a WV Basenji friend!:D :D :D

  • I moved back in August. I am staying with Beth (Rosewood Basenjis) and her husband till i get back on my feet. Thank goodness for friends.

    Welcome and so sorry to hear about the health issues of your two B's…. Thank you for opening up your home to them... And Thank Goodness we now have DNA tests for Fanconi so that no Basenji ever has to suffer with this horrible affliction.

    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.
