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.

Absolutely precious pictures. What lucky Basenjis to have found you.
-
Yes they do play well together. We have the Basenji-500 that turns into the Basenji Smackdown everyday when we get home from work. The only time I need to split the girls up is around 9:00 PM when they start getting snarky but thats about the time they go bed anyway.

BUT…Bring sharing the bed into the equation and I find the the twirl and plop into a ball to be highly preferable. There's nothing like being woken up by four B paws pushing into your back, haha. And before you know it a mere 22 lb B has you on the edge of the bed...

Lucky basenjis, your foundling and his two 'sisters' are all beautiful. Glad you all found each other!
