  • I don't know her but she is a BCOA member.

  • I knew that name rang a bell from somewhere on the forum.

  • ah yes…. i did read that now that I think back.

    I just emailed her to see if i could swing by and meet her and her basenjis - as a fellow basenji lover and since we are practically neighbors! I miss seeing other basenjis!

    This is where you heard the name

  • Hello!! Im actually buying a Basenji from her right now! I did a home visit and her B's are GORGIOUS In my opinion! She tests, has a great show record and I can tell by the visit she takes SUPER good care of her b's! Does anyone know anything else? So far I have visited three breeders in Ohio and Ct and Gretchen is BY FAR my favorite. hope I helped!

    Not that I am doubting if she is a responsible breeder or not, as I don't know this person (have heard of the kennel name, however), but hopefully anyone that is considering a puppy from any breeder does their own checking and verifies testing information at www.offa.org. A responsible breeder should be "pleased" that you care enough to check on your own.

  • Hey Kira! Where in CT do you live? Gretchen lives about 3 miles away from me.. maybe when you get your new B we can have some playdates! I'm in Wethersfield, CT.

  • Sounds awesome. Im stationed in Groton at the sub base my DH is a submariner. Id LOVE to have a playdate with the puppy!! Socialization is SO important!!

  • AWW MAN! lol i wish I could have a basenji play date! lol Anyone know of anyone in Mitchell, SD? Would love to have a Basenji play date with anyone living here, or even passing through with their B's. :)

    I assume you mean for next winter's litters ? Nothing available at all right now - all this winter's crop will have been promised long since and be leaving the nest soon if they aren't already resettled. However, if you email me (see signature block - email addresses are on the websites) I will send you a list of Breed Club secretaries.

    @cheryl-goodman - Have you talked to your girl's breeder? Have you completed all health testing and recorded it with www.offa.org as public record, especially DNA testing for Fanconi and PRA? Have you done any showing or performance events with your girl?

    We were saddened and disappointed in our visit there. It was our first exposure to the Breed unfortunately. We are working with Robyn and a reputable breeder in South Georgia currently. We are hopeful for a match with a young adult Or teen. Thanks for your input.

    Yes, Arlene, you do need at some point to take a stand and trust what you see and what you like… Breeding comes down to that in the end.... And with a bitch that is only 1 1/2 yrs looking down from the top is not a very good judge... IMO... reason?... They are not mature yet... and they shouldn't be.... their ribs have not even "sprung" at this age.. again IMO.... I would be hard pushed to say a dog is "wider" in the front then the rear at this age by just looking down on them.... again IMO.... Here is a link to 3 pictures of Kobey, 6wks, 3 months and 5 1/2 months... everything I saw on this pup at 6 wks that I liked (and that is a bit early then the 8 wks usually used for evaluating pups) I still see... but there are differences while growing... Now granted this pup is one of the few that has yet to really fall apart with a growing spurt... And also the faults that I saw at 6wks are still there too..... www.tanzabasenjis.net/kobeygrowing.html
