    @tanza said in Benji the Basenji: It is important to know the health of the pup and/or their sire/dam Well said ! It may not seem important now - you can say you will never show or need to register your Basenji - but in a few year's time you may find you wish you had known the health test results of the parents. By constant checking and careful breeding, many lines have obviated the most devastating scourges, but they are still around. Better to know for sure if your puppy is tested and imperative to make certain his or her parents were.

    @lindy said in Fostering a pup that looks like Basenji: [image: 1499893567189-img_2774.jpg] His height is 20". That's too big, right? Yes, too big. Should be 16 - 17" at the shoulder. Possibly a mix, but only a DNA test will tell you for sure.

    If you click on the last icon with the arrow up icon, you can upload photos. They need to be in JPG format I think.

    @lvoss: This is not true Eldorado's Bejeweled was last CERF'd July 2008, that test is valid for 12 months so she would not be expected to be tested again until July 2009. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1210648#animal Eldorado's Barcelona was last CERF'd June 2007, so is due to be retested but has been tested multiple years. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1057756#animal Eldorado's Hocus Pocus was last CERF'd June 2007, so is due to be retested though she was tested last at 9 years of age so at least you have some idea of how her eyes aged. http://www.offa.org/display.html?appnum=1057755#animal Eldorado's Bejeweled is my girl Ruby and I was present at her CERF. Eldorado's Barcelona (my girl Ruby's mom) crossed to the rainbow bridge last fall. I believe she was 11 years old.

    I got a 15 week old puppy when my female was 8 and my male was 5. Both were happy to have a puppy around. They all spent hours chasing each other and the squirrels in the back yard around. Fortunately my puppy didn't pick up my female's habit of digging up the back yard.
