We use olive oil when Kai's skin gets a little too dry, just rub it in and hope he doesn't lick it all off lol

Thanks for all the advice guys, I have convinced my partner that getting Kai a sister is the best thing to do:)

Speaking of fanconi, we actually ordered Kai's 3 year DNA test kit thingy a couple of days ago

Myself and my partner have a 3yr old Basenji (Kai) and we are wanting to add another one to our little pack, either a puppy or by adoption, we have contacted medfly (not heard back yet) already and are looking in the California area too.

Anyhoo!

Kai is spoiled, he totally has "only child syndrome" loves his treats and attention and we are curious to know what peoples experiences have been with adding another Basenji to a household that already has one.

Also, I have read that it's best that if you are going to have two Basenji's that you have 1 male and 1 female, is this true or just an old wives tale of sorts?

Thanks!

They are pretty tough beds, Kai does the whole "nesting thing" with it and it's held up just fine, the material is strong

Well he does watch America's Next Top Model haha

But thank you, one of the reasons I got the cell phone that I did was because the camera is amazing.

He LOVES the sun! I swear..if we were to ever leave California he would be miserable haha

We got Kai a dog bed from West Paw Designs

The best part of the best is that you can unzip everything and wash it.

SO here he is

Kai is now a super healthy cheeky 3 1/2 year old, and know his camera angles really well haha

Oh that is does!

When we were house hunting, fireplace was right at the top of our checklist.

I'm curious if anyone can recommend doggy coats/boots etc, I've found some on line, but I would really like some personal recommendations.

Hi everyone!

Myself and my partner are in the process of buying a second home up in the mountains, where of course..even in southern California, there will be snow, and lots of it.

Does anyone have any advice on being in a colder climate with a Basenji?, besides keeping them nice and warm of course.

Thanks!

Happy Birthday Gizmo!!!!

Kai will lick my arm constantly, and also my toes

Myself and my partner have entered our puppy Kai into the Spay Day 2010 Online Pet Photo Contest!!

Lol he does have attitude, he's convinced himself that he's bigger than every dog he meets haha

Soooooo cute!!!

Its been a couple of weeks since I've been on here and thought I would post some new pics of him

First 3 pics are of his first day with us, the rest are from our weekend away in Cambria,CA where the evenings were rather cold so we bought him the cutest sweater

Well, RSPCA shoul have something, and if they dont't you could make your own, actually if they don't and you can't find any online… I just gave you an awesome business idea

Where abouts in England? I was born and raised in York, but moved to California about 6 years ago.

I kept reading about Dog CPR…and completely forgot to print something out about it untill you just reminded me, so thanks!
