Hello, I'm Kat, the new girl!


  • Hello Everyone,

    My name is Kat a and I was excited to be browsing the internet last week and find this site, it looks like a great place to meet other people that share mine and my fiances enthusiasm for Basenji's!
    Our Basenji is a little girl named Eshe (pronounced Ee-sha) (it's Swahili and it means "life") She is 4 months old and our first Basenji.
    It's been so entertaining reading the stories on this site and looking at the beautiful photo's. It's also been reassuring that Eesha is a completely normal Basenji!!!
    I hope to become a welcomed member of this site and will be posting some pics of our little girl soon.

    Hopefully talk to some of you soon,

    Kat, Gavin and Eesha xx
    I have started to spell her name as it's said otherwise people call her Esh!!


  • Welcome to the forum! Thanks for posting pics of your little girl, she's lovely!

    @SethS Hi & Welcome Seth! Your new girl is gorgeous!! I just love the red & whites and the brindle & whites! My first girl, Darla was red & white so that color really tugs hard at my heart. My second, Dorie was brindle & white & now, brindles tug pretty hard at my heart too but, I know I can't have the darker brindle....too much like my Dorie. I'm not saying I'd get another red/white just because of the color.....there would have to be more than the color! But your new girl is really gorgeous!! I'm sorry about your other one & I'm sure that you look to see if the gate is closed now. It's sad that we learn a lesson like that but I bet you don't have that accident again! Congrats on your new sweetheart!!

    Before you get a puppy… go to the Basenji Club of Canada and Basenji Club of America websites and read up on Fanconi and other heritable diseases. ANY breeder not testing for these disease is NOT someone you should spend your time or money on one of their puppies. Too bad you didn't look 4-5 months ago... there was a lovely litter of Khani's pups up in Drumheller! Best of luck to you!

    @mauigirl: Welcome to the forum! Do you know if your female had Fanconi?? Thanks for the information. Skylar was her name and she did not have fanconi. We do not know what caused the infection, but she lived for three and one half years after her diagnosis. The vet originally stated about 6 months, but we treated her with a blood pressure medication, 81mg asprin and later on malox. She was active and spry right up to the last 3 - 4 weeks. We do as everyone should, check our dogs with the strip test. Also thanks for the welcome…:)

    @youngandtired: Hi! Welcome to the Basenji Forum, this is a great place for chatting about our furbabies, and getting information. So, your baby is 4, please tell me that they will stop chewing, and surfing the tables. My Sahara, would be just great if she didn't do this. I love her just the same, but I have lost things I can't get back that she has chewed. My Basenjis right now range in age from 12 1/2 to 15 3/4…. :p They still surf, however they have pretty much stopped chewing... :D But that is just cause they are old.... and the teeth are not as great!
