    Really cute!!! and that would be my guess too…. Andrew... Let us know as many of us are related by our Basenjis.... And some of Andrew's (if that is the breeder) has related Basenjis to my C-Me and Franie.....

  • Wow, she is adorable..how exciting…congratulations again.

    +1 - please let us know who the parents are…Andrew has one of my girl Ruby's daughters (Raven) and I think she was bred this year.

  • Sorry, I was rushing before and didn't give the name of the breeder, but yes, it is Andrew Sawler. I'll meet him tomorrow, but from talking to him on the phone and emails, he sounds like a very nice person.

    So very cool that Renaultf1, you apparently have my pups grandmother, because Raven is the mom and Obo is the dad. My pup was named by Andrew and even though he said I could change it, I actually like her name and it seems very appropriate for me, since I'm a kindergarten teacher. Her name is Ellaminnowpea, Ella for short. In kindergarten, the kids like to say LMNOP as if it were one word. I think Ella is a pretty name, so that's what I will call her. I am so excited. I can't wait. I will post more pictures when she is finally home. I've been doing a lot of shopping, including online getting her some things. I just want to hold and cuddle her. I probably won't get a lot of sleep tonight!

  • dmarie or renaulft1 - what are their registered names…. interested to see if related to Franie or C-Me

  • OMG, her name is too cute!!! I love it and your pup is very cute. Andrew is a super nice person and wickedly funny - and very knowledgeable and helpful. Very cool that my Ruby is your pup's grandma - I've always thought Raven is lovely! Definitely post pics up when you get Ella.

    Congrats again!

    Raven is Ch. Eldorado 'n Akuaba's Nevermore (out of Ch. Eldorado's Bejeweled and Am/Can Ch Candu's Rocket Man). Obo is a Klassy son from Debbie's litter last year (can't remember his registered name, but he finished his championship last year). So yes, Pat, related to your C-Me?

  • Her name rocks..brilliant. I can't wait to see her in pictures…

  • I put a picture of my little Ella under forum section, Show Off your dog. Still not sure how to properly post pictures, but there is a thumbnail image there.

    Thank you for adopting this beauty. She looks so much like my first basenji.

    Thanks for the replies to my "Hello". I was wondering if I had walked into a ghost town…...seems there is a problem with the site at times.

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    I live near the mountains in Colorado. There are some great trails with open space all around to let thme run around. Gosh I'm so jealous!! We don't have any plasce we could let our pooches loose. I would love a big open space sans any basenji prey :) that way they'll come back
