Tis the season??!

    Today Oakley has been in a very funny mood. His intensity has kicked up a few notches, he isn't sitting still/ restless and he has nudged and licked me…is it breeding season?? Anyone's else male basenjis acting funny yet!?

    Yup! Tucker is going bonkers…...trying to breed with Becca (she's fixed) oh and hubby is getting some special attention too. I am looking forward for his next teeth cleaning because we will neuter him then when he is under anesthetic, i'm hoping it takes him down a couple notches.

    Oakley is neutered, has been since 10 months old (he's 33 months old tomorrow)..every year he gets funny but this year just seems/feels early which is why I wanted to see if anyone else is seeing signs of the season. At first I was worried he wasn't feeling well bc he was off but now I'm starting to feel its rut related

    I will say the DAP helped when I had an intact male and an in season female.

    Neutered or not doesn't change the "time of season"…. Neutered Basenji males are well aware of the time of year.

    So it's not out of the realm to think its season related?

    Oakleys still going strong this year in terms of funny breeding season related behaviors. It's actually driving me quite nuts. When should it start to quiet down?? I highly suspect a female in heat is around the neighborhood but either way; he's a basket case

    It will quiet down when his "brain" says breeding season is over… could be soon, could be lots longer... sorry to say

    Magnum, almost 10 years old, neutered at 3 years old, shows no sign of recognizing breeding season (and never has, even before neutering). Maybe there are/have been no in-heat females in the vicinity? He is awfully laid-back for a B…I'll consider myself lucky!

    @tanza I don't believe there was a limit to the number of letters, though I wasn't paying much attention to whether the field stopped me from continuing. Tanza is nice! I was actually surprised no one has claimed the name :D

    @tanza said in solving the "bad breeder" problem:: you know nothing about breeding ... In all fairness, @tanza, you don't have any idea where my breadth of knowledge lies. I have previously stated that I have no desire to become a breeder, but that isn't the point. Is it? You are venting because I am firmly standing my ground. We've been through this discussion before and I'd wager that we will do it again. Over the same thing, ad nauseam. either allow this or ... I understand that you are frustrated. @eeeefarm said in solving the "bad breeder" problem:: It is also fair to state any provable fact, but that should be left up to the individual, e.g. "my puppy has "such & such" condition, and my puppy came from "so & so" breeder with this existing condition. I agree with this, provided there is a way to prove that the illness could have been prevented by the breeder. That doesn't mean that every illness is breeder related. For example: Parvo and Giardia are widespread issues commonly contracted from one infected animal coming into contact with another, before or after the pup leaves the breeder. A pup with Giardia isn't necessarily a result of poor care by the breeder because it would be almost impossible to determine where the pup was infected. I think we should avoid referring to a breeder using subjective terms like: bad, irresponsible, etc. You cannot prove an opinion. If someone sees a statement (like that) about them and decides to contact an attorney, you and I aren't the ones who would be going to court. @JENGOSMonkey Thank you for your two cents (I liked the image, too). You are right. Most of what I do as a "moderator" is banning people who create profiles for commercial websites to improve their Google rank. I feel like if I kick them off right away, they won't bother us with inappropriate posts. I have banned over 2,000 profiles (so far), looks like I have 3 or 4 more to tend to today.

    @tanza I'm definitely attending the next show as a recon trip. Not sure how the work here but if they're similarly easy to enter as the ones in the US, I do want to show Roux! LOL that's a hilarious saying; I absolutely appreciate a smart lady over cluelessness haha :face_with_tongue:

    @lindenbaum I've long forgotten about this thread. If I am remembering correctly, I left it up so that people could read the flags that it may be a puppy mill and be able to make their own decision regarding that. I am deliberately wording that as "... may be... " because I do not have any personal interaction with "HH" and therefore cannot speak to it. (please note that I removed your "HH available breeds" list, no offense)

    Hmm, I have heared about types of Wolfhound (in German the breed is called Tchechoslowakischer Wolfshund) which also become their oestrus once a Year. I think it has something to do with how domesticated the breed is. I thought Dingos also have only one Oestrus per Year, Wolves as well… Greetings, Esther
