    • RE: Just received my 4 Months old Basenji

      introductions are important to basenjis and I am not sure what you define as 'Normal dog'...but it's seldom a basenji...lol.
      There are distinctions...there a breeders like many of us on this site and there are back yard breeders or commercials. which one you got her from can provide background on if they are lines we are familiar with. I would suggest a call to your breeder to ask the question might also be a good idea.

    • RE: 6 month neuter

      i dont believe in early neuter.....and if a vet promotes it...find a new vet.....The soonest i would ever recommend neuter is more 1yr to 18 months. But ive had many unneutered dogs and bitches.....

    • RE: Lets try this again.. Finley! Our adopted Basenji mix. :]

      folks should remwmber that while fanconi shows up the MOST in basenji because we have such a small gene pool, if does occur in other breeds and other animals.
      re: Podengo DNA if people want to submit they can but statistically unless there are hundreds of samples to come up with a baseline there would not be comparative info.
      We collect samples for other health issues that are a priority for a small population.
      Good luck with your dog.

    • RE: Sisterly “love”

      spaying will NOT help. In the wild they would have to frequently at maturity, have to establish leadership. so it is hardwired power and control. most of us NEVER place same gender together. another concern would be if the 12 year old is deemed unnecessary to the pack, they could gang up on her.

      If you find a behaviorist, find one familiar with primitive dogs but I would not be optimistic of it helping.

    • RE: Warning about grain free dog food

      the original data from UC Davis was more useful. the ingredients in question are Leguemes, peas, pea protein, soy etc. Not so much grain free but what replaced the grain. The original article also had a way to document report, test and where to send data. that was way more helpful that a list of foods in particular because not specific of which variety of food of a brand was problematic.

    • RE: Basenji Mix ?

      @Kembe 1 hardly any podengo dna on file and honestly the guess your breed tests are just that. Phot in field looks more podengo Close up basenji. Enjoy your dog. Fyi I raised basenjis since 1982 and Podengo grande since 2007

    • RE: Did I finally solve the breed mystery?

      Portuguese Podengo.....basenjis dont appear to carry the dwarf gene.... there was someone in the NE us who was breeding them at one time. Likely the breeds share some common ancestry. That said, the ear shape is not correct for either breed. a mystery.

    • RE: Prey drive with small dogs

      They do not differentiate between squirrel and fluffy puppy....prey is prey it is instinctive and deep seeded. a basenji off leash will be a dead basenji.....may not today or tomorrow but eventually.

    • RE: Recommendation for multi parasite?

      Do not give your dog oral NEUROTOXINS unless you are prepared to deal with death and lifetime seziures. Just what sort of parasites are you worried about?
