What beautiful babies! The resemblance to Comet is quite striking, especially in the markings. It's very nice to see other members of the family, thank you for sharing the links!

Hi hdolbow- We are in Montclair. A shout out to all you former Jerseyites… How did you escape? Ha ha
HI back to Myran and Elfa- we have seen a lot of pictures of Tre! He is a beautiful dog and he seems very sweet too! We also got to meet Tre's litter that was born this winter at Meisterhaus, so we've met a lot of the family.
Wizard- The Collie doesn't know what hit her! She is great with him though.

No I didn't take pictures but I will if it happens again. The first time it was on the top and side of his muzzle, it made him look like a bull terrier!
I spoke to our vet again yesterday, she wants to keep him on benadryl for a few days, and we need to do some careful observation about what he has contact with. The swelling wad completely gone by last night so we are very happy about that.

Thanks everyone for your input, it's great to have your feedback.

Thank you!
His parents are Tad Brook's Pistol and Camille… BISS CH Meisterhaus Politically Correct and Ch. Meisterhaus Tears & Tantrums.
Anyone who is interested in such things can check out his pedigree here:

And one more photo just for fun…

We think he is beautiful too, but of course we are biased! We were very lucky to get a pup with such a fine pedigree.
Nala121498- Collies and Basenjis seem to be a good fit, don't you think?

Here are some pictures of Comet as requested! I hope you enjoy them!

What a tiger!

Thanks WBL, it's kind of overwhelming to think about everything a puppy may be exposed to that is new… just about everything around him I guess! I will definitely take more notice of what he is exposed to. We researched our breeder thoroughly, he is extremely reputable (the puppy's sire was a recent Best of Breed winner at Westminster), and he is very conscientious of health issues in breeding choices. There is nothing in the puppy's line as far as we can determine that would point to this kind of health issue.
I will look up the sites you recommended, thank you! I still have a lot to learn about the breed.

Hello fellow Basenji lovers,
I am excited to join this community, I got my first Basenji (Meisterhaus Cupid's Caper, AKA "Comet") on Valentine's Day. He is just over three months old and is so very sweet, smart and fun! He is a very welcomed addition to our house and is in love with his "big sister," a Collie named Kip. Comet is red and white and loves to give kisses! He is a beautiful boy. Look out all you other show puppies in the Northeast… we look forward to meeting you in the ring! Also I already posted a health question in the proper forum.. I welcome any advice!
