Male Basenji needed

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • Well, that and the desire to essentially "clone" a beloved family pet, which never actually works out that way.
    Then you have people getting irritated because the dog doesn't behave like "Princess" did.

    Until my Basenjis, every dog I've ever owned has been a rescue of sort sort or another. No matter how fabulous a pet they were, they were ALWAYS spayed/neutered, enjoyed and thoroughly missed when they died.
    I never would have dreamed of breeding them.

    Of course, I don't dream of breeding my Basenjis either – and they are both magnificent animals!!!!

  • My all breed dog rescue club has a letter, a bit long, about why NOT to breed.
    Its sent to someone like the person who started this post.
    I will share it with you all if your interested, or you can post to me privately.

  • Sharron, please post it. I think it would be a good thing for all to see…

  • Also, a site for sharing with the family who want to show the children the joy of birth!

    One of the greatest things I found to drive the point home was a link I
    originally saw on the Afrikenji website:

    http://www.learntobreed.com/miracle.html

    and
    My friend sent this to me. It is way too good to not share! Please take
    a look at it, why NOT to place an intact dog!

    and
    Should I Breed My Dog?

  • Of course this is directed at the folks who just want to put 2 dogs together.
    In no way would I ever do anything but praise the responsible basenji breeders who work so hard for health testing.
    This is not an way anti responsible breeders.
    Just want to get that point down.

  • Oh shoot! I missed the nasty post in response to my post! I am sorry Lisa that this ugly troll hit a sensitive memory with you. And, of course, I am still sorry for the loss of your little guy.

    Folks, for those that don't already know….there are groups of idiots out there that "troll" message boards, and try to get as many irrate repsonses as they can. They actually compete to see who can get the most people upset, or the people most upset. When you call them out, and refuse to rise to the bait, they usually go away.

  • @JazzysMom:

    "So my kids can watch the birth process" is one of the most over used phrases by people who breed random dogs and cats for no real reason.
    More low quality animals are produced for that reason than any other, I'd wager.

    And what's the most often phrase for breeding low quality folks like yourself? "I was drunk.":eek:

  • Hey Roxy, could you send your nasty post to me? I would looooove to see it.

    The first one was really interesting, but the second one…OMG, and I thought I had read horror stories before...what an eye opener :eek: :eek: especially the one about the mother eating the puppies. WOW!!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks for posting those links!

    nice punchline. This thread is out of hand.

    @yahtzee92 Just make sure you see Mom with the pups if at all possible and you definitely see the health certificates of both parents. OFA website is public domain - anyone can research on it. Tanza is right. Any puppy farmer can pay the BCOA and get listed. It doesn't mean there is any BCOA recommendation or guarantee.

    Oh man, all I can say is this is so sad. :( I read previous messages and everything looked like the puppy, whether Fanconi and health tested or not, was going to be a forever addition to a (new) family. Maybe the puppy was pushed on someone, or maybe not enough was known about the breed. I just hope he can find his forever home through BRAT, which I would also say is the best choice in this situation.
