    Interesting thing about TRI's… ggg... I think the bitches are far more "tri-ing" then the boys... or maybe they are just smarter.... I always tell people that the "Girls have an agenda and the Boys don't have a clue"..... and that goes for all colors....

    So basically I'm in for some 'fun' with a tri, and him being a boy? Lol

    I perused through the BCOSW site. If you click "breeders" you'll see many have websites. There is a wealth of info in them.

    This one - http://www.arendahlbasenjis.com/basenjis.html has some critical information about safety - all very important points. Scrolling down, there are sights about Basenji health.

    All good reading material for planning cuttipie732. It's fantastic that you're doing your homework - bringing home the puppy will be the final exam. Good luck!

    @Nemo:

    The Basenji Club of Southern Wisconsin has a book too. You can get it on their website and pay with Paypal if you are more comfortable with that. Similarly, I think it was developed with the help of people long-familiar with basenjis. I have not read the one that Sharron is recommending so I can't compare the two but the topics of discusion are similar. Go to online shopping to pay for it versus filling out the form. http://www.bcosw.org/

    I just went to it, and it sent me to a form. All I saw was that you could pay paypal for memberships… and other things, but not purchase books.

    Thank you very much for the info. I will definitely look into it. Also thank you for the compliment. I don't mind it, it's only more homework! Since I am a college student. lol

    It is all the way on the bottom, I was looking to buy it myself and found it below all of the membership information, it was the last thing you could purchase.

    If you don't mind my asking (and absolutely no offense meant) - why is your mom so hot on doing the training (whether she does it herself or she takes the pup to class)? You've done a lot of homework on the bred but how informed is your mother about basenjis?

    It's been my humble experience that the person doing the training/socialization with the dog (whatever breed) forms a bond with that dog. Are you living at home and so your mom wants to have control of the situation when you're not around? If this is your dog, you need to have the primary bond with it.

    We took Dash to Animal Care Unlimited for puppy socialization. It was inexpensive and worth it! Personally, I think the puppy socializtion classes are THE MOST important class you can take you dog to. Not to mention you get to see so many other pups. Probably not B's in this are though. You are always welcome to bring the pup over to our house for play time. Our Dash loves friends. We are on the north end of Columbus. are you far? You can PM me privately if you are interested.

    If the dogs are having similar symptoms as in the previous years, they need to be treated ASAP! It is my understanding that many are developing the acquired Fanconi Syndrome and need to be put on the protocol. Many vets though do not have the equipment to do the venous blood gas test and get an accurate diagnosis. Emergency vets should have the equipment. Do not buy any dog treats that come from China and if the package does not state where it is from then do not buy it! Jennifer

    Well, the lab I mentioned (chocolate overweight one) almost took me out by slamming into my knee. I commented loudly " he better not insure my knee!" No comment from the owner. Others were keeping an eye on this over exhuberant dog too. Many peeps were standing behind a bench for protection. What really bugs me is that the park has very visible signs when you enter it that say you must have control of your dog.

    Jaycee digs same way but she does somersaults head down over she gos first time neighbor saw it they could not beleive it. I think neighbor came over every day for a week waiting to see it again and Jaycee would do it. Yes I very much second that digging usually will cause the great B-500. Rita Jean

    @JazzysMom: You KNOW William has to be wondering why we don't just throw the darned dogs into the stew pot!! bwahahahaha Because basenjis are too sleek and lean, not enough fat on the little rascals to make good stew, of course!:D

    The only thing I would be concerned about with a Dachshund would be the possiblity of it having some back damage with the rough play of a basenji…or even trying to do the same acrobatics that Bs do. I have known some folks who had a lot of problems with disk and spine problems with Doxies...but I don't know if that is typical. Something to think about though...
