    Hi This is Kathy from Michigan and who is loved and owned by three Basenji's. I have joined to keep up with other Basenji owners and to see if any one can HELP me locate a 2007 Basenji calendar. We like to get one every year and keep all just for the pictures. Our three B's are, our first is a female(red/white) named Shoney who just turned twelve on the 6th of december. Then comes Bandit our twelve and a half year old male (tri) Then comes The Mooser who just turned eight in November. He is one of shoney's pups. Looking forward to hearing from any Basenji people out there…..............Loved and owned by three B's Jim & Kathy Ross

    Welcome to the forum. There is a wealth of information here and its great to talk to other Basenji owners. You'll have to let us know your experiences with 3. I too have 3 and have my hands full at times. What are your registered names? It's always fun to fine owners with related Bs.

    Hi Kathy & Jim! Welcome to the forum. This is a wonderful place for bragging, sharing and learning! I knew nothing about Basenji's, until I adopted a Basenji/Whippet mix. After one year with my precious Hollie, I have learned alot, but have tons more to learn. I hope you post pictures of your b's soon. Enjoy the forum!

    HI Jim and Kathy! Glad to hear of another Michigan family. I am in Ann Arbor. If you live nearby, there is a store Dogma Katmandoo that might have a B calender. Where are your B's from?

    @abonnard Pee pads got me through in the end, she would pee every 20 mins for the first months, then 40 mins, then she suddenly went to being able to hold it for many hours. One of the best purchases I got before she arrived was a small carpet washer, saved my sanity. The cleanup is so key otherwise they go back to the same spot.

    @Motala - That is good that you talked to Jan and glad to hear that she had not been spayed. I still think that your Vet and you should connect with Dr. Gonto about your girl's blood work and blood gas results and if he has any thoughts about it.

    Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him. http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/

    @msjames, @tanza did you a solid favor outlining expectations. Networking really is key to finding a "reputable" breeder. Most show their dogs and are connected to other breeders through showing. They all seem to know who is planning a litter and who isn't. I completely agree with Pat that you should meet your breeder in person prior to the puppies even being born. You can learn a lot. Is a Basenji right for you? If you want a dog to hang with you in the driveway with the garage door open as you chat with neighbors, or stand calmly with the front door open as you receive a UPS package... ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Basenjis will bolt. they'll be gone in a second. They see it. They chase it. And if you think you have them trained... no. They've trained you. When they see it they will chase it. Basenjis, in my experience, need exercise. Mine get two walks a day. When they don't, they can be destructive. They're not shy about expressing frustration or displeasure through chewing up your best stuff. A big secure yard can mitigate this, but that's not a guarantee. They love seeing outside, so keep your blinds and drapes open otherwise they may open them themselves even if that requires chewing through them. They will climb onto windowsills, tables and low counter tops. They are capable of scaling a six-foot fence. They are known to climb trees. These are extreme examples, but better to know now. They are super affectionate. They can be trained... to a point. They are clowns and provide endless entertainment. A Basenji baroo is the best sound ever! They love to snuggle and will sleep on your bed and under the spreads and sheets if you let them. They love to share body heat. Tail twitches when I return home are the best!
