My guys really enjoy this brand. It has no grains at all, which is what I like. It is recommend for 1 year and over. For me it was around 50 dollars for the big bag. If you're looking for a new brand, try this one!

I take my two b's to the dog park about everyday. My Roo who is fixed always gets in fights with other basenjis. If any other breed, Roo will just walk away. Why is it basenjis only? Does he "know" they are the same breed?

At the moment I have a dog run. For the base we put down mulch which I don't like. It's not sanitary and you can't clean it. Any suggestions?
I like the idea of astro turf, but it would cost 2000.00 and I need something cheaper that will drain well. Is pea gravel a good choice?

@Nathalie:

Ahhhh she's cute and Roo looks a lot like Milo.
Do you know if Pipper still has her dew claw?

Yes, her and Roo both.

Monthly Strip Testing only. DNA testing has not been done.

I use a leave in conditioner from DermCare sold at PetSmart. It does a good job of controlling dry skin after a bath.

Here's a pic of Roo in our bed and Piper.

Hi Natalie,

Milo is a cutie. They grow so fast. Piper is doing great. House training is coming along. She rang the bell on the door for the first time yesterday and went out and did her business. Roo loves having a buddy to play with. Piper still sleeps alot, especially after a play session with Roo.

I went to the BRAT website and signed up to help foster. We'll see what happens next. My husbands not to keen about us fostering, since we just added a new puppy (Piper) to our family. I dont think having one more basenji in the house would be a problem, especially since we dont have children.

I live in socal. Is BRAT looking for foster homes close to SD only? Do they ship via plane if you are far away?

Roo is jealous of Piper already. He plays rough with her and he is always biting her throat or neck, so I am unable to leave them together. The good thing is he doesnt growl and he has no problem sharing food or toys with her. Hopefully, In time he will adjust.

This picture was taken at 8 weeks. I pick her up tommorow:)
I hope Roo (my other b) isnt too jealous.

My Roo is also in a OC. I have to say he is at the bottom of the totem pole. He has such a short attention span, but he does pretty good at home. He understands very well what you are asking him to do. Then he decides to do something else. At the moment we are working on come which works about 50% of the time.

I just recently had the flu also. My little Roo(7 mths) stayed in bed with me and we just napped the whole day, which is very strange for him because he has alot of energy. Maybe he knew I was sick?

That's going to be tough on Roo. He loves the dog park and he is so well behaved after he has been. At least he will have a buddy to play with.

I have a basenji who is up to date on all Vaccinations and we take him to the dog park alot.
Would he be able to transmit a disease to a young puppy?

I talked to my breeder ad both the sire and dam test negitive. Yeah!

She's such a cutie. I to have a tri, Roo who is 7 months old and in a couple weeks I will have Piper.

We got the idea from the same video!

I would think so. My roo has a sentsive stomach but he seems to tolerate Merricks flavors just fine. I only feed him half a can at a time. I try to give him a varatity. On the weekend , I like to boil fresh chicken and mix in brown rice. This is by far his favorite meal.
