    Yep, he's a Basenji! Even our almost 12 year old, who hasn't been in a ring in years and has cataracts so he doesn't see too well, still stacks himself up neatly in show stack if I put my hand in my right pocket. Why is it that they promptly 'forget' so many things they're supposed to do, and yet manage to remember things like that?

  • He's a superstar Diva now :D
    Congratulations Ayo

  • Looking good/ I love all his ribbons and medals. Congratulations again.

    Terry that is too funny, is that Tex you are talking about?

  • Holy moly, Ayo. Congratulations on the huge haul!

  • Great pics! He looks super with all his ribbons!

  • Yes, Petra, it's the Tex-man!

  • Thanks everyone, he does look great doesn't he?… It was lots of fun!!!!!!. Now we have a new addition to the household. I picked up a puppy on Monday that came up to us during our walk. One of many that we come across almost everyday here. When you live in a place like Santo Domingo, which has hundreds of stray dogs roaming the streets you desensitize, you can't help them all! But this time I just couldn't help it!! She was so cute and helpless and the is a place here called doggie house where they take stray dogs and try to find them homes, like a rescue kennel place but I went and they are currently full. So...... She at home for now, ayo loves her and I will try to find her a loving home, but it is not easy,!!!!

  • I took her to te vet, and she got all hershots and she is perfectly healthy, I will post pictures soon!!! You should see the wayshe eats!! She swallows 2 cups of kibble in three seconds!!! , and here is Ayo, the spoiled brat, who just looks at the food, uninterested!!!

    @evillemon said in How to start showing: @debradownsouth Yes we figured we will wait until he is at least two before we make any decisions on neutering him. I can understand why you might want to neuter a female but a male? Agree you need to wait. Most of the reasons advanced to neuter come from groups with an agenda but without solid science. Generally speaking the health risks of neutering outweigh any benefits and there is no effect on behavior. In my experience, having an intact male Basenji never presented any issues at all. Unless you just let your dog roam free I can't think of a single good reason to do it.

    Look up local dog clubs in your area. Ours in Missouri is Greater Kansas City Dog Training Club. They have Obedience and training for shows. Hope this helps. Rita Jean

    He has a good hand with dog?s and is extremely knowledgeble he with several of the swedish kennel club have put their foot down when it comes to breeds that have gone to far like the Basset Hound,Mastino Napoletano etc… So our judges have now gotten order not to award these extreme bred dog?s so that the breeders will start to breed back to more sound looking dog?s.So far we have avoided any silly trends with the Basenji although a whippet kinda dog has been trying to emerge in to the show circuit hopefully that won?t be a success.One dog that I really like she has such a basenji expression is Fula Of The Congo dead but not forgotten:)
