Updated my Website

  • lvossL

    It has been several years since I have done any major changes to my website layout. I decided it was about time for a new look. The link to my website is in my profile.

    I would love feedback on whether it is easy navigate and if it is useful for someone who is still learning about the breed. Even as I type this I realize I forgot to include a link to the Basenji Forums. I will go change that right now.

    I think it looks great Lisa. I love how friendly it is to new folks, and information gathering folks.

    Thanks, I am glad that it is easy to use. I wanted something that would look nice and that people could easily find the information they wanted.

    I tried out Coffe Cup's Visual Editor and really liked it. It made putting the site together very easy. Uploading was very easy also with the built in FTP function.

    Now I just have to finish uploading pics to my photo albums this evening. It is amazing how many photos I have of my dogs. It takes awhile to go through and organize them all.

    I'm a little late but I just looked & found it not only very user-friendly but informative as well. I like how you give the history of your pups & have tons of pictures :) Very nice! I know I'd be inclined to inquire about your pups after seeing that site!

    The more feedback the better. I really want a site that is useful for people who are just starting to research the breed.

    This is why I hate posting. I wasn't mad at you either, just didn't think you understood the process. We've all had bad experiences which is why we need to learn from others. There are quicker methods (think wringing their neck-literally) but that's not something I could do. Chopping off the head I have no problem with when the bird is older, but little chicks and ducklings get to me. I know better when going to the vet now, but, at that time, I thought the vet knew what she was doing-obviously not.(with the dog that she blew four veins) This dog was 17 1/2 years old and didn't deserve that at the end of life. He may have been struggling, but you would think after she blew the first vein she would have sedated him then rather that keep trying. Yes, I was with the dog and was not happy with her explanation. There was no reason for it. There are still a lot of people (they just don't admit to it, because they don't know a better method? or just couldn't be bothered? Who knows?) who still use the freezer method. Am I cruel, I can be when I have to be, but I just prefer a simpler method. And I am well aware of the rocks in the sack method. My father was from the old country (hungary) and could be quite cruel. They were never pets or living things-simply livestock-but he wasn't a nice person anyway. As for the vet not putting an animal to sleep? Lived it. I had one dog who was off the wall. Something was simply crossed upstairs neurologically. He started having seizures at about 18 months, but came out of them viciously and could never settle down. The vet insisted I sign him over to him and if he deemed it necessary, he would put him to sleep since he was so young. Yes, there was a euthanasia contract to that effect. The vet kept him for a few days, phoned me up and asked me how I lived with him so long. He could not believe how bad he was. He did put him to sleep after that. But these are a couple of reasons why I am so leary of vets. I've had a few bad experiences with them.

    @Janneke: A smart thing to do! I'm also thinking about a kennel name, but I first want a female at home.. It's pretty expensive to register a name :rolleyes: In Sweden it cost about 250 Euro to register the name. I got my name from the 1/12 2010 so its not that old. But it has taken over a year to get it approved by both FCI and SKK (Swedish kennel club).

    I'm so jealous! I haven't been able to ride in ages. Super expensive in the city to own a horse and hard to find a place that let's you actually lease a horse… walking trail rides get to be a bore after a while. She looks so pretty and great work with her :) If she needs exercise cause of your work schedule, have you tried seeing if there's an equestrian program in your area with a student willing to do some riding? Sometimes they get credit if it matches up with their program or they might like the chance just to practice their schooling :) Unless you're planning to be the only rider, just thought I'd suggest it. Keep up the good work!
