Anyone from Cheshire, CT area?

Basenji Talk
  • Hello! I may be relocating to Cheshire, CT and I was wondering if there are any B-owners from that area of CT that can tell me if there are dog parks around, or give me advice about kennels if I ever have to leave for a weekend or something? Or if you are close enough, maybe we can arrange play dates when I get into town!

  • Welcome to the Northeast!! :D I'm sure you'll like it here. I'm from NJ a couple hours away but I'm sure there's some CT people out here :)

    @cicily-prestridge - You may never find out who the breeder is or health information unless the adoption agency has more information. Where are you located? For health there are DNA tests (cheek swab) available for Fanconi and PRA. You can order them at www.ofa.org

    I was reading up a bit on fanconi and found this website that states as part of the protocol: (http://www.basenji.org/ClubDocs/fanconiprotocol2003.pdf) 2. Any good quality dry food may be fed, with the addition of at least one can per week of HIGH PROTIEN ?wet meat? mammal meat based dog food (Beef, Lamb?etc.) to replace long-chain amino acids and phosphorus. Poultry based foods have proven far less effective in management of this disorder then mammal based meats. The only exception to this high protien diet, in this protien-losing uropathy, is documented renal failure (increasing BUN/CREATININE). In this type situation, see the ?RENAL FAILURE HYBRID PROTOCOL? section later in this instruction set My dog doesn't have this but I feed Wellness Core and she loves it. I also feed senior wellness to my older chow who's a picky eater and just add a bit of wet sometimes and he gobbles it up :)

    My Jala came from a similar situation. :( The breeder just wanted to flick her off after having showed and bred from her because her home situation changed. I mean, it's sad, but happens. It just makes me love Jala more. :)
