    @abonnard Pee pads got me through in the end, she would pee every 20 mins for the first months, then 40 mins, then she suddenly went to being able to hold it for many hours. One of the best purchases I got before she arrived was a small carpet washer, saved my sanity. The cleanup is so key otherwise they go back to the same spot.

    Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him. http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/

    @basenjilovers - She is very cute, please make sure that DNA testing was done for Fanconi and PRA. And if not or you are not sure, you can get the test kits at www.ofa.org. You do the test as it is a cheek swab.

    Hi Andrew- My name is Heidi and we have a 7 year old girl named Princess that we are going to have to find a new home. We live in West Chicago, Illinois. Would you be interested in a housebroken young girl?

    Thanks for such a warm welcome! Because you asked, here are some photos of Jack, my Basenji-mix. boy…I hope this works - I'm not as adept at the computer as I would like to be. Cheers, Bewler [image: attachment_p_65466_0_212.jpg] [image: attachment_p_65466_1_img_2011.jpg] [image: attachment_p_65466_2_xmasjack.jpg]

    She is darling and you are now OWNED by a Basenji!! Mine is a mix (basenji and whippet) and she still does the B500 through the house (furniture is ALWAYS involved). My Hollie only digs after seeing other dogs do it… a learned behavior(?). I agree with the forum members who suggest crating Abby, for her own safety and your piece of mind. Hollie has gotten out of the dog lot where I work about 4 times. She is NEVER outside without me now. I couldn't stand it if something happened to her. Good Luck!!
