Some years back, during our Shiba Inu and Jindo period our Jindo developed a terrible rash and wht with her licking turned into huge hot spots, loss of hair and everything. Our vet narrowed it down to a grain alergy, suggested we go to an avocado based food, AvoDerm. Within 2 weeks she stopped itching and chewing, and 6 months later all her hair was grown out. As time went by she developed a beautiful luxurious coat, never had another problem with alergies or skin problems. We realize that B's dont have the long double coats like Shibas or Jindos, but our philosophy is if it ain't broke don't fix it, so we have just continued feeding AvoDerm to our B's as we accumulated our pack. The main problem with it is, if we feed them as reccomended they gain weight, so we really have to watch their diet.

Hello! I'm getting my second basenji next week. (My beloved "Champ" passed away 9 months ago. We spent 13 fun years together.) My new basenji is a beautiful 11 month old brindle. I think we are going to name her "Sweetie". Her name is already "Ava", but my 11 year old daughter, who is also named "Ava" made it clear there is ONLY one Ava in our family. lol
Anyway, nice to meet everyone.
Peace.
