    Hi, this is my first post of Basenji Forums. I live in Scotland and am due to collect my first Basenji puppy on 1st February. I have waited over a year for this puppy so i am really looking forward to finally having one. I already own two lovely Rhodesian Ridgebacks and have admired Basenjis for some time since they are all 'hounds'. I will be taking a lot of interest in your forum for help and advice with my new puppy.

    Theresa:)

    Hello & welcome from a fellow jock, though living in Northern Irealnd at the minute:D
    Be sure and put plenty pics up when you bring him/her home:D

    What breeder are you getting him/her from?

  • Welcome.
    You live in an area I hope to one day visit.
    We look forward to seeing your dog photos.

  • Welcome to the forum! Can't wait to see pics of your rr's and b-pup!

  • Thanks for the welcome folks! I'm getting a boy puppy from a lady in Bedford, England. Zordia is the kennel. I will post some pics on as soon as i can. Our ridgebacks have really good natures and will love having a new boy around.

  • Hello & welcome to the forum. Looking forward to photos. Congrats on your new pup

  • Welcome! I too have run Ridgebacks and Basenji's together. Good thing is they understand each others play because they have very similar play styles. Most RR's know how rough they can play with smaller dogs but you will still want to closely monitor for several months as your B grows so you can make sure there aren't any accidents from too rough of play.

    Best of luck to your new addition!

  • Hello from Paris =) welcome to the forums, can't wait to see photos of your new baby. =)

  • Welcome to our pack! As you can see we're quite an international group but two things we have in common - we love basenjis and we're addicted to pictures of them :)

    Every single person who loves the breed has a right to care when irresponsible breeders get support. I am sorry you don't get that. Nor was it s lecture...it was facts.

    Please research the health problems in Basenjis especially Fanconi Syndrome! There is a DNA cheek swab test for it and I believe it only costs $75. If your dog has not been tested and is over two years old, she needs to be strip tested for glucose in the urine monthly until you have the DNA test done and obtain the results. Untreated Fanconi Syndrome will kill a dog! Here is a webpage that explains health problems in Basenjis: https://www.basenji.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=155&Itemid=292 Jennifer

    @Scampy: Hello, everyone! I am so excited to have stumbled upon this forum! I belonged to Basenji Companions until last year, and I miss the community and advice. I have one basenji, a 10-year-old red & white male named Toby. I adopted him six years ago as a "golden opportunity" dog when his show/breeding days were over. He shares the house with three humans and a cat. (We may be inheriting another cat, but don't tell him…I'd sort of promised him a little sister.) Any other west Michigan folk out there? I was born in Kalamazoo! Welcome to the forum! Tabatha
