Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • @LiveWWSD:

    Lisa and or Pat,
    Does Sally also get information from the CPP if owners fill out the pedigree survey? Just curious about how the whole process works

    She does not get any information from the CPP site (which is pretty new). She gets her information from breeders directly, stud books, show catalogs… but mostly she relys on breeder information....

  • Anyone who has pedigree information that is not in Sally's database and wants it listed is welcome to email me the information and I will send it to Sally.

    The minimum information that I need is the Sire, Dam, and puppy's AKC registration number.

    If the dog is not AKC registered then I need a little bit more like Name, Birthdate, Color, Sex

    If you only have partial information that is okay, you can send it along. Sometimes we can piece things together with partial information or it may link up to something later when someone else provides info.

  • What I was told by Jim Icenogle was that all of his pups, if registered, had to have the word Rwanda in the registered name, I guess like a kennel name or something??

    My daughter is searching through her things at college to see if she took Ty's complete papers with her. I happened to run across a xerox of the sires lines stuck in her copy of "The Complete Basenji".

    Funny, I could have SWORN the breeder told us the litter was registered. Live and learn.

    Thanks for all the help.

    BTW…before posting this I googled his name with the word 'dog' and it appears he now raises and shows Chinese Cresteds. At least if I can't find Ty's papers I may be able to locate him and he should have the copies of the dam's side, right?

  • The litter may very well be registered, many litters are registered but don't show up in Sally's database. Do you have Ty's registered name?

  • Rwanda's Tyler the Tiger

  • Dam's name is Rwanda White Diamonds.. (according to AKC). I will let Sally W know so she can make the links (as there is a litter mate on her site also)…

    Jim I's dogs came from Hacker Basenjis....

    Based on the pedigree, if you have not DNA tested for Fanconi, it would be a good idea.

  • Thank you for the info and the advice! I'm planning on him being tested. Glad the swabs are available now. I won't forget to register first.

    Again, thank you.

  • Interesting, I just visted OFFA and the Hacker web site with the new info you've given me. Very interesting.

    BTW…..is it common to have a disclaimer concerning possible Fanconi infected dogs in a puppy sales contract?

    Again, thank you for all the time and effort you put into helping me. You're a gem:D

    I don't think that Hackers are active in breeder Basenjis at this time and have not been for 5 or more years…. their note about Fanconi comes from before we had the DNA test for Fanconi and we could only use our best judgement in breeding. So breeders could never say "never" regarding Fanconi prior to the DNA test. This is why it is so important that breeders test "before" breeding...

    Glad that I can help.. and if you have more questions, please feel free to ask...

    Ivoss,

    Do you mind if I email you Nemo's info? I was wondering how to get him on the database.

    Thanks,
    Clay

  • No problem. Send it to me and I will get it to Sally.

    I too am sorry for not seeing this thread sooner and hopefully the poster will return. My Basenji had some teeth removed and the vet prescribed Carprofen as the follow up antibiotic. My Basenji turned out to be allergic to Carprofen which caused her liver to fail. I went through the same scenario you are describing. She gradually quit eating over the course of several days and then her water consumption started to go down. The eating had me worried since she had an excellent appetite upon return from the vet and the final purging of the anesthesia from her system. Nevertheless, her condition started to degrade. I followed her outside and watched her urinate. Her urine was a very bright yellow. I suspected then a liver issue. Once back inside she was shivering - off to the vet we went. LIver panel blood work up showed very high on specific indicators for failing liver. Vet prescribed Denamarin (containing SAM-e and silybin). SAM-e helps protect liver cells from cell death and aids in cell repair and regeneration. The Vet also started fluid injections. Fluid injections were everyday for two weeks. My Basenji showed a remarkable response to the fluid injections becoming much more her normal self even after the first day. She hated the injections and I could hear her cry when receiving them at the vet (believe me that will tear you up). But she was doing better and she (me) were going to have to tuff this out. Also a different antibiotic was prescribed to prevent liver infection during recovery. The Denamarin comes in dosages based on weight (medium for us). It is the size of a large human like solid oblong vitamin pill. Instructions want you to give it on an empty stomach and preferably not to cut it or place in something similar to a pill pocket however you can if necessary. My Basenji would not take that size (can't blame her). Cutting and disguising it did not work either. I was frantic and got the SAM-e in powder form. I couldn't slip her that either. All though some folks had success with peanut butter and liverwurst. I finally after three days had to have the vet pill her along with her fluid treatments. A week later another blood sample and her liver panel indicators were coming down. The pilling would last for a month and it took two people to get the pill down her. The important part is - she fully recovered from the liver failure. She is 13 1/2 yrs old. My experience after having 5 Basenjis is that the breed is sensitive to medications (anesthesia also). Many of the medications work just fine in most other breeds and mixes. The vet, if not that experienced with the Basenji, must be cautioned. Mine was not. Before accepting any medication have the vet go over any contraindications with you and to double check their resources for potential side effects when dealing with Basenjis. They may switch to something else if a medication has a bad track history with Basenjis. Know what to watch for should your Basenji start to react in a non-positive manner. The poster did not indicate if there were medications in play when the dog started showing degenerating conditions. I sincerely hopes this helps in some way and helps other Basenji owners

    My first girl got carsick. I used Dramamine (Gravol) for her. Luckily she outgrew the problem, because every time I had to pill her the neighbours thought I was killing her. She screamed her head off! (and of course spit out the pill). She did best riding loose in the back seat. That was in the '60s, and we didn't worry about such things…...

    It's most likely a yeast infection. They get it in the ears quite often. Buddy has a yeast infection right now on his stomach.

    I'm glad to hear the spinal tap went so easily. What a brave little girl Keba is. When I first saw she was getting a spinal tap, I thought oh–that sounds painful. I hope things start improving for her.
