Tanza Basenjis Breeding Plans for 2012

Breeder Talk

  • The forum is so hard in the winter– all those new puppies for those of us who are puppyless to drool and envy. Heavy happy sigh. Congrats-- here's hoping for healthy happy new pups.


  • LOL…. "young".... if only... more like old and crazy enough...

    And thanks... works for me 6 (3 & 3). The stud owner sent me a text and said "I hop you have 8 or 9.... " I sent back, if I do you will find anything over 6 being fedx'ed to you!

    I was going to say 7 - all boys, but I like you.


  • Lmao, too funny agilebasenji,
    I like Pat too, I say five- either 4:1 or 2:3 ratio

    If the stud owner doesn't want the extras you can send them to me :D I love naughty puppies :D

    Good luck!

    LOL, could happen


  • 2nd Breeding done yesterday…. Ultrasound October 25th


  • looking forward to seeing photos in Nov of the happy babies.


  • Just curious- what does FedEx label a box like that? SPERM inside ? DON'T TIP?

    Just wondering, lol


  • LOL Chealsie!!!!! Not labeled anything special, there is special packaging that the Vet uses as the sperm is chilling and spun down, so the container is pretty small! It is the dry ice that takes up most of the package.


  • Lol, for all I knew it could have been labeled "LIVE ANIMALS"! I didn't know if rules and regulations state that anything of that nature needed to have special labeling for the handler. That's good to know, gives me a chuckle though that the FedEx deliverer didn't know what he was handling
    :D


  • Oh no, not puppy season again! My husband wanted a puppy last year but I was too late to contact anyone and reserve, then we adopted Chipley and filled our quota.
    Don still talks about wanting a naughty puppy, he is home full time so he deserves one, but 4 is way too many, and Nicky would never forgive us.

    I would love to VISIT a houseful of puppies. I'm sure yours will be amazing, Pat.

    I have 4 and I'm perfectly sane. (Of course one is a malinois and she's crazier than all the basenjis put together)

    No, really I am.

    I AM too sane.

    Uhm, oh, well, okay, maybe you're right.


  • Ultrasound complete! And the count is SEVEN….. pictures will be on my website this evening!


  • Whoo hoo, that's awesome news!!! Seven tri puppies, you should be certifiably insane!!!!

    I can't wait to see the pics and hear the great news of their arrival

    CONGRATULATIONS


  • Pictures of the ultrasound now posted at www.tanzabasenjis.net

    And yes I will be certifiably insane! Litter should be due November 27-29, 2012…. might even get to have a "quiet" Thanksgiving dinner"... but will be a bouncing Christmas and New Year!!!!!!!!!

    Oh and in case you are interested... I was DONE when they got to 5!!!!!!!!!!!


  • How is the expectant mom doing?? I'd love to meet a pregnant basenji..I'd imagine they look like pot bellied pigs!!

    Did she take well to the ultrasound?


  • Right now she really doesn't look any different and she is doing great… she showed this past weekend (a bit thicker in the waist), but she is still chasing squirrels... eating like she usually does.... of course talk to me when she is about a week from birth... she should look like a stuffed pig... I was pretty sure the breeding took, her nipples have enlarged and turned pink.... that didn't happen with her other seasons... but not always a sure sign.


  • Congratulations. Looking forward to puppy pictures in December!


  • Looking forward to hearing about all the mischief that 7 basenji puppies can come up with :D

    Congratulations!

    Yes you can be unlucky with anything, but doing everything you can to ensure a healthy dog should be the top priority. My girl has had blood work every year just as routine after my firsts problems. She has no symptoms, we just caught it on the yearly two years ago she slightly elevated, last year she was more elevated. We first started just Nutramax denamarin, three months later it made no difference to her readings. We switched her to Dr Dobs detox diet and Nutramax denamarin, went back after three months and her levels went up! So now we have her on regular food, denamarin in the morning, milk thistle in the afternoon and twice daily 1000mg of fish oil. Due to go back in February and see if that works. If not we will probably have to ultrasound. All her other blood work is normal so that is a good thing.

    Thanks Andrea and Robyn, That was helpful. Zoni isn't horribly mouthy but I definitely have some more work to do with her. I carry a nylabone in my pocket for the occasion.
