Hello from WV


  • Hello, just wanted to introduce myself. I am Melisa Skillman. I have been owned by basenjis for 8 years starting my 9th. I have 4 wonderful dogs one of which I am looking for his forever home for. Diamond is my matriarch then Jaz, Frankie and Shadey. My Daughter Latasha also enjoys the breed but she also has a whippet, Khloe. i look forward to learning new things from this forum. I also hope to meet some new and wonderful friends. :)


  • Hi Melisa :) When did you move?!?

    Yay!!! As you can see from my quote above, I have been looking for other Basenji slaves from WV! (I recently posted in the Chit Chat section). I am so delighted to have a WV Basenji friend!:D :D :D


  • I moved back in August. I am staying with Beth (Rosewood Basenjis) and her husband till i get back on my feet. Thank goodness for friends.

    Big hugs to you for adopting an older basenji. My heart gets broken when I see the senior b's on the BRAT web page. :( So give Pippi a hug for me.

    Welcome, from another Ohioan. We are on the north side of columbus and have 1 r/w boy. We have occasionaly taken him to the Westerville dog park but his behavior has not be great lately. We have cut back. We also help BRAT transport and foster. Great to have more B's in Ohio. I see so few of them in Columbus.
