  • @CairoPup:

    Lol, I had a feeling it was a close-knit community and now I'm beginning to see that! I'll have to check with her on the registered names (I'm not sure on the spelling) & I'll get back to you.

    Yes we are…:D and again welcome, can't wait to see pictures. My Franie may be related to your Cario

  • Welcome to the forum, Brian and to your Cairo when he arrives!

  • Welcome the forum Brian,.. All i can say is I,m sure you will enjoy your new puppy Cairo, great name! be patient , I think you'll find that he will more than make up for the frustrations you will undoubtedly go thru raising him!!! It's is very rewarding!!
    especially if you do it right and it sounds like your off to a great start!
    Welcome

  • Welcome! Btw just did a rescue evaluation for a dog named Cairo. I think it's a great name!

  • We go coursing at the 3M park in Ames several times a year. I think we will be up there in April and Oct this year. I know there is one other basenji boy, who lives in Ames, that comes out to course too. You should bring him over to the park to socialize with the other sighthounds at one of the events. I am getting a girl mid feb, they will be close to the same age.

  • Congrats! I just saw some puppy pictures on Facebook. They're really cute!

    That sounds like a great idea - I've been looking for events to attend with him. I will definitely bring him over. I'm new to the area so the socialization wouldn't hurt me either! I had been wondering if there were any other Basenjis in Ames. Congrats on your new puppy, we'll have to keep in touch!

    @DebraDownSouth: I am so happy to sign in and see you post! Especially with the wonderful pictures and videos. Both of our first basenjis do that to your HAIR when it's wet. I am going to try a wash cloth and see! I am glad your husband is doing better. Well hello Debra! It made me smile to see your post - I always enjoyed your comments, whether popular or not, because they were YOUR honest comments. :) I'm a huge fan of honesty. We are all doing quite well here - still in the Vancouver, BC Canada suburbs. Kipawa is thriving, and he is a big part of our lives. Yes, you should do a video of your basenjis going wild with a wash cloth. My hair is longer and thick, so I think I have to keep Kipawa out of it when it's wet. ;) As every year goes by it seems I lose a major chunk of my memory. Are you still in the 'south'? Was it Georgia? And your basenjis' names - forgive me, I can't remember them. Boy do I love getting older, NOT!

    Welcome Angelilca! I'm the "mommy" of a B girl with Fanconi, also. I really encourage you to join the fanconi yahoo group. It's a GREAT resource! I have learned so much just from reading the posts of people with current issues and the experienced fanconi dog owners' replies. Also, they keep a list on the website of vets that are known to be knowledgable about the disease and are willing to communicate with Dr. Gonto (who wrote the protocol) directly when needed - because not all are. The list is by state and you can find it on the site under "files". http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/fanconidogs/ Good luck with everything and keep us posted! Sadie

    Swims, but doesn't like the rain? That's odd. Why do you think that is?
