Tanza Basenjis Breeding Plans for 2012

Breeder Talk

  • Little "Jaspers" arrived in Oakland, California this morning via FedX. C-Me will be bred this afternoon and tomorrow. With any luck, pups will be due November 30, 2012.

    Litter details can be found on our website, link below


  • Woohoo, congrats and good luck with the breeding!


  • Here's hoping for bunches of happy, healthy tri babies, Pat!!

    Terry


  • Ah, to be young and crazy enough to think a housefull of tri-ing basenjis is a good idea. ;-)

    I'm hoping for 6 rambunctious healthy tri-ing babies. 3 girls, 3 boyz.


  • 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!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why do breeders mix Basenjis with other breeds?

    I have to agree with Janneke. There are some sport mixes that are very responsibly bred. Most often these dogs are bred for Flyball, and involve a herding breed mixed with a terrier. The border-staffy mixes mix the drive of the Staffy with the intelligence and trainablility of the herding dogs, but also to mitigate a bit of the herding breed sensitivity. I think a team of 4 Borderstaffys holds the flyball record right now? They are supposed to be great for what they are bred for. Super-fast, drivey, but with the "off-switch" that is missing in a lot of terriers. They supposedly breed pretty consistent, and the breeders heath test, and try to be responsible. The border-jack is also really popular in flyball and agility. They are smart, super drivey and hyper. As far as I know, neither of these mixes has been picked up by the BYB's and Puppy Mills. Neither of these mixes should go to non-sports homes. Lots of mushers mix greyhound or whippet into their northern breeds to add some speed to their teams. Or they often choose to breed mixed breed dogs that are superior lead dogs or the like. I see no problem with purpose-bred mixes, as long as their breeders are as responsible with their planning and placements as we would expect from any responsible purebred breeder.

    4 sounds like a very manageable number.. I will keep my fingers crossed that they will come out in colors wished/hoped for. Either way they will be absolutely adorable, I am sure of that.
