PRESIDENT’S Message
S
ince this is a combined issue for
the fourth quarter issue in 2012 and
first quarter issue in 2013, I’m both
reflecting on my first year as bcoa President
(which definitely had its ups and downs)
as well as looking towards the future. As
expected, I’ve continued to learn more about
bcoa and being part of a parent club’s board
of directors and continue to learn about
bcoa, bhe, and akc. Progress has been
made on some projects and, as always, room
for further progress still exists.
I am proud of bcoa members’ generosity
to support the American Kennel Club’s pac
and akc’s Canine Legislation Support Fund,
and doing something for our dogs’ futures to
make an impact and pushing back against
attempts at passing extreme dog laws. Thank
you to everyone who has given to either of
these funds. If you are interested in learning
more, you can visit on-line: www.akc.org/
canine_legislation and click on the “Two
Ways to Protect Your Rights” link.
Other progress made in 2012 is that the
bcoa website continues to be an invaluable
resource with our on-line roster, breeder
directory, news updates, and educational
opportunities for owners, breeders, judges,
and anyone else wanting to learn all about
Basenjis. If you haven’t visited the Basenji
University (bu) at www.Basenji.org, please
do so. The bu continues to grow in different
directions, most recently performance activities. bcoa has continued to reach out to the
public by launching a facebook page: www.
facebook.com/Basenji.org and we are also
on YouTube: www.youtube.com/user/BasenjiClubofAmerica. If you haven’t already
visited these sites and “liked” or subscribed
to bcoa, please take a few minutes to explore
and participate in your Club’s latest electronic adventures.
Speaking of electronic advances, I would
like to see bcoa be given the opportunity to
ballot our members electronically for those
who are able to vote in this manner. Members
who lack the resources to vote electronically
would not miss the opportunity to participate
in a vote. A paper ballot would continue to be
mailed to members who are unable to vote
electronically. But, overall, electronic balloting is a time and money saver, it’s “greener” for
the environment, and by using a third party
to tally the votes, it also ensures ballots are
secret.
In case you are unaware of our current
voting process, bcoa volunteers process all
ballots and they (especially our secretary)
donate many hours into manually putting
together and processing one membership
ballot. The only ballot that is not tallied by
bcoa members is the annual election ballot
that we pay a cpa to tally.
While updating bcoa by-laws this year
(recommended to be done every five years),
we approached akc about electronic balloting. At this time, electronic balloting has not
been approved and until bcoa can educate
and explain to akc the benefits of electronic
balloting by using an independent third
party and how we would approach this new
procedure, all by-laws updates are currently
on hold.
I want to thank Connie Camp for taking
on the duties and responsibilities of producing our quarterly magazine for the first three
issues of 2012 and also for part of 2013’s first
quarter issue. Stepping outside of someone’s
comfort zone and taking on a new project
that is so high profile can be daunting and I
appreciate Connie’s dedication and willingness to devote so much of her time to learning
this job as well as actually putting together
the magazine.
As Connie steps away from her position as
Editor of The Bulletin magazine, I want to
welcome Eunice Ockerman to the job. Eunice
has several years of publishing experience
and has been busy working on combining the
2
Carrie Jones, President
fourth quarter 2012 issue with the first quarter
2013 issue. In addition to Eunice’s expertise,
she will be receiving support from previous
editor, Kim Noyes. Thank you, Eunice and
Kim, for joining forces and combining your
talents to provide the membership with a top
quality product.
Speaking of The Bulletin, please be
sure to review the Native African applicants
for akc Studbook registry in this issue. The
dogs that are profiled in this issue have passed
Board vote and membership ballots will be
mailed by Secretary Ketz in the next few
weeks so please take time to learn about these
dogs and remember to vote whether or not to
recommend to akc that these dogs be granted akc registration. As many of you know,
the entire native stock procedure has been
under review, but nothing has yet changed
so all native stock procedures are continuing
now as they have in the past.
Our national specialty will again be held
earlier in the year than what we are traditionally accustomed to and it will be held in July.
If you haven’t already looked into vacation
time from work and made your hotel reservations, please start planning. Also, the Unsung
Hero is announced at the annual membership
meeting and submissions for this award need
to be received by the Secretary, Janet Ketz,
120 days prior to the meeting so the deadline
for Unsung Hero submissions is in early
March of 2013. If you know of anyone who
gives selflessly to bcoa and the breed, please
take to time to honor them with a nomination
and Board consideration.
For those of you who are enjoying puppies
this year, best of luck with finding loving,
forever homes. Whether or not you bred a
litter this year, if you have a website, please
remember to keep it updated.
I hope that you and your curly tailed
companions enjoyed a safe and happy holiday
season and best wishes for a “barootiful” 2013.

There are many opinions on the subject. There are many who believe so strongly on the
opinions related to this issue that it is difficult
to know what is true vs. what is colored by the
need for the individual opinion giver to be
right beyond doubt or to prove the other side
wrong at all costs. It is difficult to weed through the opinions
to find the truth. At some point, a calm voice
of reason will come forth and give clear and
unbiased information in a manner that all can
appreciate. This is my personal wish and not that of
the club in whole or in part.
—Connie Camp, 2012 Editor
Thank you both for your observations. I hope
you and others will enjoy the article “Managing Genetic Health in Pedigree Basenjis,”
on page 14 of this issue and that it will spark
further discussion.

Greetings From
the Editorial Staff
Heads Up! This issue is a double issue,
melding past editor Connie Camp’s 2012
fourth quarter issue into a mega issue.
With some trepidation, I agreed to
consider editing/designing/producing the
Bulletin. I now have newfound respect for
all past editors and volunteers. It is no easy
task. The more I understood the scope the
more challenging I realized it was. I was about
to decline, but when 2011 editor Kim Noyes
volunteered to lend a hand with production,
I was persuaded.
Between us, we have over 50 years of
design experience. We both entered the field
pre-desktop publishing and share bloody
(literally) memories of those days.
In addition to producing the Bulletin,
the editor is responsible for developing
content and selling ad space. But with an
ever growing editorial team of volunteers
(Jennifer Miller and Janet Ketz stepping up to
help sell advertising space; William McCann,
Katy Scott, and Donna DeFlorio offering
proof-reading and content services) the
position is far more manageable.
We also depend on the continued support
and work of Susan Chuvala in sending out
4
reminders and rounding up club news and
other content; Janet Ketz for being so helpful
in answering questions and tracking down information that we need. And many thanks to
Linda Siekert who convinced me to take this
on and without whom’s help I’d be lost. I am
proud to join the list of editors; all who have
contributed to make the publication special.
We hope you enjoy Jan Robert’s and Bev
Reid’s account of tracking with a Basenji
down-under.
In another story, we have consolidated
comments from a short list of owners describing what makes their Basenjis different from
other breeds. Share yours!
The editorial team is eager to hear your
comments on content and suggestions for
improvement. The is what our members
make it.
BCOA supports entries at AKC shows to increase the attendance & participation
at these shows. Supported entries are hosted either by a BCOA affiliated club or
by 5 BCOA members in good standing. Supported entries are limited to 7 per
region with exceptions granted on a case by case basis. These may be supported at regional Basenji specialty shows or the Basenji classes at an all-breed AKC
dog show.

population genetics
What does “population genetics” have to do
with a dog breed that is bred by individuals
(members of a breed club or not)? I realize
there are some who think they are God! But
seriously, which of us breeders controls a
whole population?
I have bred Basenjis for over ½ a century
and studied genetics both in published information and in the practical real world. Can
anyone explain to me how (why) “population
genetics” applies to an individual’s breeding
program????
Experts often possess more data than
judgment.

Opinion
Are Basenjis Doomed for Extinction?
by Mary Lou Kenworthy
I
Wau of the Congo was added in 1952. Fula of the Congo joined the
gene pool in a big way in 1959. “Tiger”(Binza of Laughing Brook) was
brought out at the same time as Fula and while he went to Rhodesia,
S. Africa he had daughters in England and a great grandson came to
the USA. Kiki of Cryon was added in 1960 and Taysenji Tahzu in 1962
bringing the dominant black into play. Phemister’s Congo joined the
gene pool in 1975. With the addition of Tex of Alexandria, the founder
count was at 17, certainly enough for a viable population at this point.
But there were more to come. When the stud book was opened
there were six Avongaras registered from the 1987 importation and two
from the 1988. At this time Esenjo (imported in 1978) and her offspring
were admitted to the registry. In 2006, six more were brought out with
the Avongara prefix. One Lukuru Basenji was admitted that year as
f you listen to a few people in the breed, you might think that
Basenjis are on the road to extinction. The reason they give is that
there are too few founders—the gene pool is too small. Let’s look
at the facts!
If this is true, wouldn’t one expect to see signs of inbreeding
depression?
In the 1980s, some breeders panicked when Fanconi syndrome
was wiping out a lot of their extended families of Basenjis. Their cries
were heard over those who said they had little to no Fanconi in their
lines/families. At that time, based on a nationwide survey of Basenji
health and studies by Dr. Kenneth Bovee, Dr. Russell Brown, and
Dr. Edward Breitschwerdt, it was assumed Fanconi was probably
prevalent in about 15% of Basenjis. However, this also meant that 85%
of the breed was not affected.
In 2007, more than 20 years later, an indirect marker test for Fanconi
was developed. Consequently, in the next few years, through careful
breeding practices, the incidence level of Fanconi, using this new test,
was revealed to be about 6.5 percent. This is probably an underestimated figure because owners who had Basenjis with Fanconi did not use
the test because they already knew the results. Fortunately, today, there
is now a direct gene DNA test that, if used properly, could wipe out
Fanconi in a few generations.
Fanconi syndrome is caused by a combination of missing genes; it is
not a sign of inbreeding depression. One popular sire produced at least
four direct tail male popular sires and his very large family contained
many affected and carrier Basenjis. This group was largely responsible
for the spread of Fanconi syndrome throughout this country and
abroad. However, some still theorized our problem was because Basenjis did not have enough diversity because of too few founders. Let’s
examine that theory.
Dr. Phillip Sponenberg, dvm, PhD, Professor Pathology and
Genetics, Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine,
indicated that the minimum founder number could be somewhere
around 10 but more would be better.
Dr. Robert C. Lacy puts the number at 20 founders to build a viable
population.
According to Kevin Willis and Raymond E. Willis (“How Many
Founders, How Large a Population,” Zoo Biology), 20 randomly
selected individuals will supply 97.5% of the source population diversity
while 30 founders increases it to only 98.3 percent. A very large number
of founders does not increase the survival rate of a population.
So where does the Basenji breed stand in all of this? There were
nine founders from 1936 through 1941. They were Basanga, Bashele,
Bereke, Bokoto, Bongo and Bungwa all “of Blean.” Also, Bakuma of
Blean later known as Phemister’s Bois. Others were Amatangazig of
the Congo in 1938 and Kindu and Kasenyi in 1941.
well. The year 2007 saw five more Avongaras added as well as one more
Lukuru Basenji.
From the ’80s through 2007, twenty-two more founders were added
to the gene pool making the total count thirty-nine. This is many more
than most breeds have, do we really need more?
Basenji breeders do a good job of keeping on top of health problems
and, to date, there have been no reports of problems attributed to
inbreeding depression. It is more important than ever to be selective
about what is being bred in order to protect Nature’s Masterpiece. Is
there really a need to add to the contamination of this ancient natural
breed by using questionable dogs in the name of diversity?
To quote Malcolm B. Willis, “ ‘The good of the breed’ is the most oft
quoted lie in dogdom.” N

loof with strangers and not as effusive or in your face
as a Golden, I explain when asked. Soon as I get the words out
Eta, my younger Basenji, trots up for a little meet and greet. I
know she is checking if the conversation will result in treats but, to all
the world, she looks mighty interested in making a new friend. And if
they have food, heck, they may become a friend. That’s worth a twitch
of the tail. My credibility drops a few notches.
Independent thinkers, I say to the next person who inquires, just as
my dogs lunge after a squirrel. I can read their thought bubble (poorly
trained dogs!) as soon as my words are out.
Oh look, she/he is so submissive, lying down on the ground, exclaim
a couple as they approach us on the trail with their dogs. I try to refocus
my dogs and smile rather than explain their predatory behavior.
A fan of their elegant looks and owner of an aging outdoor Rottie-mix asked if Basenjis were high maintenance. After a long silence, I
said yes.
Now it could be the way my husband and I choose to live with our
dogs and the behaviors we tolerate. My gut says Basenjis are different
even if I can’t articulate it. I give up. I need a new elevator speech.
So I looked to people who have Basenjis and other breeds.
Here is what they say.
Training: My Aussie is motivated to do absolutely anything with me
at any time. Doesn’t matter what it is, how long it takes, or how often it
repeats. What matters is that we are doing something. He lives to please
me. His toy is a much bigger motivation than a food treat.
My Cavalier loves agility and long walks. He will attempt the same
agility sequence several times but will burn out after he reaches his
quota. He will start barking at me in frustration sometimes. He loves to
please me.
My Basenji, Bakari, could care less about pleasing me. It’s all about
her. Is there food in my hand? Then she will do the activity quickly,
accurately and enthusiastically. If there is no food in my hand, then all
bets are off. If she has to repeat an activity more than just a couple of
times, she is done. If I can’t figure out what we’re doing, then that’s not
her problem. If she senses frustration (even not directed at her) she is
done. We can be having the world’s most beautiful run and she will stop
to sniff a bug or stack for the judge. Being an agility judge, they usually
aren’t all that impressed.
Home Life: My Aussie is a bundle of energy. Daily exercise is a must
and training/ball throwing are essential for wearing him out. Mountain hikes are ideal for a few minutes of calm. He is extraordinarily
gentle with the other dogs and allows the Cavalier to terrorize him. He
can be demanding for attention by plunking his head down on my arm
or forcefully nosing my hand for a pat.
My Cavalier is pretty independent. He likes to sit in my lap for a
little while but he prefers to be in his crate, guarding his precious socks/
sticks/plastic bags, etc. The dude is a pack rat. His temperament is much
sharper than is allowed for in the breed standard. He is an absolute gem
with Bakari and strange dogs but he is an absolute terror when it comes
to the Aussie—15 lbs ruling 50. Go figure!
Bakari is my snuggle bug. It is all about comfort for her and the
warmest, softest place in the house is on my lap. When I am on the computer, she curls up on the dog bed next to the desk. Sometimes she will
go to bed without me but it is rare. When I was sick last weekend, she
stayed in bed with me the entire day, only going out to potty. All of my
dogs insist on being near me but she is the one who prefers to be on me.

I often find myself explaining to people who ask me about my dogs that
Basenjis are different from other breeds and different beyond the simple
observation that they (typically) don’t bark. Yet when asked how they are
different, I am somewhat at a loss. I grew up with dogs (Dachshunds) but
Basenjis are all I’ve known as an adult.

www.basenji.org
As a breeder of Basenjis for 30 plus years and the owner of Australian
Cattle Dogs for over 18 years, I find the following differences:
Basenjis have their own agenda, if they get something out of it all
the better. They are hard-headed and very independent. They are like
having a two year-old at times, very needy and want all your attention
and at times like a 15 year-old always testing you to see what they can
get away with. If you let them do something once, then according to
them, it’s ok to do it all the time regardless of what you want. You throw
a ball for a Basenji and maybe twice they will bring it back but the third
time they will look at you as if to say “I brought it back twice, why do
you keep throwing it away?”
Cattle Dogs on the other hand, you tell them something twice and
they know what to do and do it. They also just want to be your buddy
and will be happy just hanging around you all day. The Basenji you
will end up trying to catch if it gets out the gate. Especially if you have
chickens as I do. The cattle dogs don’t bother the chickens or the cats.
The Basenji is a great, clean, and quiet little compact dog, very little
shedding. The Cattle Dogs have that double coat and seem to be always
shedding though not as bad as some dogs, and can have a piercing bark
that could shatter glass. Some Cattle Dogs will chase a ball or stick for
hours, a Basenji “not so much.”
I have had Basenjis that I take camping with me off-leash and they
stay around just fine, that is if you can get them out of the sleeping bags
on a cold morning. The Cattle Dogs are happy to sleep next to you and
keep you warm!
If my Basenjis get in a tussle, you could lose blood trying to break it
up; the Cattle Dogs, I smack a newspaper on the counter top and they
stop although they will give the “stink eye” to each other for a while.
If you have a Basenji you will either “love it or hate it.” If you fall
in love with our charming breed you will always have one around, no
matter what they do. If you have a bad experience, you will tell people
“I had a Basenji and never again!”
Food: They will all eat anything, any time, anywhere. The Cavalier
practically takes my fingers when I give him treats. The Basenji is
absolutely gentle and barely grazes your fingers with her lips—never
her teeth. The Aussie is excited about treats and sometimes forgets
to be gentle, but not usually. The Basenji is the only one with food
allergies but the others are on a grain free diet so that they can all eat
the same thing.
Sense of Humor: The Aussie seems surprised when he makes me
laugh but he likes it. When I laugh, he seems to laugh along with me.
The Cavalier is very, very serious. He doesn’t have time for all that
funny claptrap. The Basenji is the only dog I have ever owned (and this
includes my rescue Basenji that I owned previously) who makes me
laugh on purpose. She will deliberately do things that she knows are
funny and wait for me to laugh. What really blows me away is when she
does it when I am feeling down. The Cavalier seems to be more in tune
with my negative feelings but the Basenji is in tune with my soul. The
Aussie is clueless.

I’ve been thinking about this. And I asked Leon tonight what he
considered different in Basenjis. And he said, you know. What? I asked.
They’re unique, said he. So I thought some more.
I think, as people say, that Basenjis compare best with cats. I think
of the descriptions of felines, and there are the Basenjis. They are clean.
Immaculately so. And they don’t smell. Mine have never had a bath.
Nor Gracie the Rhodesian, but sometimes she smells a bit.
I’ve put the Basenjis in the car after they were out running and
covered in stinky mud and by the time we got home they were clean.
Some of my Basenjis have been inclined to groom me and the other
dogs. Especially when wet. They are sleek. And they run like ponies. Other dogs are sleek, but
I don’t know that they are so compact. They are sly and quiet. My
Basenjis rarely have made a sound when prowling. They are extremely
independent. And can be very aloof. All my Basenjis have been less
concerned about their humans than they are about themselves. Where my Rhodesian is highly aggressively protective of me, and
Standard Poodle Schubert would bark, I think if my Basenjis spotted
danger, they’d go the other way. Basenji Quiz did seek me out when she
was cold. They are clever, intelligent problems solvers. I’ve had Basenjis who
could crack any cupboard. And I’ve watched them problem solve. We
fenced Sarah and Nikki on the upper deck in Cambria. Second-story
deck. Nikki cruised the perimeter and found the weak spot. She simply
climbed the wire, or went up the corner and walked on one the railings
of the deck. They unfortunately have good memories, too.
Intelligent, but not necessarily trainable. I think they do only what
they want. I think of the Basenjis who cross the field to get the lure
instead of going around. Or the doubling up to pass others. They outthink my Gracie and both Poodles.
But perhaps it’s not just the out-thinking, it’s having little desire
about pleasing humans.
Gracie smiles if I get upset, she tries hard to do what I want. Loud
voices scare her. Same with the Poodles. Were I to yell at the Basenjis or
show anger, they sit and look at me like I was crazy, totally unaffected.
The others wouldn’t think of entering a room or the house if a door is
only cracked. The Basenjis get the door open.
Basenji Quiz flipped the little door thingy on the dishwasher door
to get at the silverware and instead of fighting Basenji Jones and Gracie—Poodle Schubert wouldn’t raid the dishwasher; it’s tacky—she
pulled out the tastiest spoon and licked it clean on the rug.
Gracie is houndy and has some similarities to the Basenjis. When
we first put in the outside dog compound, Gracie was able to move the
cement squares at the bottom and dig a big hole under. She escaped
with the Basenjis. The Poodles stayed behind. I’m sure they knew they weren’t supposed to go under. They didn’t want to offend. But then, Poodles were
bred to please. Then there are the obvious differences: the once/year heat cycle; the
lack of barking (both Quiz and Jones were/are very silent).
I don’t know how to explain it, but there is an essence to my Basenjis
unlike the other breeds I’ve had—Australian Shepherd, Dachshund,
Poodle, Rhodesian Ridgeback. I feel like, the more I know, the more I would want to know before I feel
sure saying “this is a Basenji trait.” To be honest, I feel like my Basenjis,
Nike and Lucy, are more different from each other than I would have
expected, and the Captain, the Border Terrier, fits right in the middle of
the spectrum. Most to least trainable for obed/agility: Nike, Captain, Lucy

Dignified, regal, strong sense of their own value, will give it a bit more
thought. Have you seen that YouTube video Dog Friend Cat Friend? A
Basenji is far too dignified to fawn like other breeds.
Clean, picky about their environment, especially their own comfort.
Smart but not necessarily biddable, willing to make their own decisions.
I love them!
Did I say elegant? I find them beautiful to look at. And of all the dogs
I care for, I am the most honored when a Basenji deems me worthy of
affection.

Anyone who lives in the neighborhood of a Basenji will tell you that
their vocalization sets them apart from other breeds. Screaming, yodeling, and chortling do not come wafting on a summer’s evening from
the homes of pugs and chocolate labs. No poodle owner has ever been
asked by the well-intentioned party at the other end of the telephone
whether they should call back “after you’ve taken care of the baby.”
But there are also few dog breeds as quiet as a Basenji who wishes
to be silent.
A whimsical book about life with a
Basenji, written and illustrated by
Robert Vavra. Originally published
by the BCOA in 1958, current
Basenjis are a breed apart. As Pat Cembura observes, “if
you have a Basenji you will either love it or hate it.” And,
as Brenda Phillips notes, an individual Basenji’s behavior
is exactly that—individual. So individual that perhaps
Leon’s observation that they are “you know, unique” is
what it comes down to. N
copies include a bonus introduction by the author written in 1991.
This was Mr. Vavra’s first book and
the only one he illustrated with pen
and ink.

Managing Genetic Health
in Pedigree Basenjis
“In populations of
animals … where
management of
reproduction is not
focused purely on the
preservation of the full
range of characteristics …

assumptions underlying
the ‘ideal’ estimate …
are not met.”

I
n response to the paper by Thompson (2012), we wish to provide some
information about issues relevant to
managing the genetic health of the pedigree
Basenji population. Thompson provides
a valuable introduction to the principles
underlying genetic management of breeding
programs for rare and valuable populations.
One of us (rcl) has been involved in the
development and application of these
concepts and methods for the preservation
of endangered species for the past 30 years,
and we agree with Thompson, that many
of the principles that have been developed
for optimal management of threatened
species, have value also for the management
of breeds of domesticated animals. However,
there are also differences in the goals and
feasible methods that should be considered
when adapting the lessons from endangered
species management to breed management.
Below, we address some of the issues raised
by Thompson that might need clarification
or further explanation.
1) When numbers such as 5-15 founders, or no
fewer than 6, have been provided by conservation geneticists as the minimum number
necessary to build a viable population, the
context has been emergency efforts to
sustain a wildlife population or species, and
the emphasis is very much on a “minimum”
number. Even when the possible loss of an
entire species is at risk, it is debatable (and it
is vigorously debated!) if it is worth putting
resources into trying to build a breeding
population from fewer than 6 founders. As
Thompson notes, a recommendation of 20
effective founders is typical as the starting
point to rescue a population at risk of extinction (Lacy 1989). Beyond the recommended
minimum of 20 effective founders, zoos must
carefully consider the incremental benefit
of starting with larger numbers of founders,
because of the considerable cost—sometimes
including even the potential to seriously
damage the remaining wild population by
over-harvesting—of importing an additional
10 to 20 individuals of a large wildlife species
that is likely difficult to capture, handle, and
transport.
2) General statements about minimum
number of founding individuals necessary to
build a viable closed population are based on
models of population genetics that assume
an “ideal” population where breeding is
either random or will be managed to preserve
14 genetic diversity using a breeding strategy
designed for this purpose. An example of this
would be a captive zoo population of a species
where reproduction is carefully managed
to minimize loss of genetic diversity and
changes from the original, wild traits over
generations. The strategy pursued in such a
management plan would be to maintain equal
genetic contributions of all founders to subsequent generations, as this would maintain
the maximum amount of the original genetic
diversity.
In populations of animals (whether
species or breeds) where management of
reproduction is not focused purely on the
preservation of the full range of characteristics (good and bad) of the founders, the
assumptions underlying the “ideal” estimate
(as above) are not met. Some of the variation
brought into the population via the founders
will likely be lost in the first few generations,
and the number of founding individuals will
need to be greater in order to provide an adequate genetic base for future breeding. Indeed,
even in breeding programs for endangered
species in zoos, we know that in spite of our
best efforts some initial “potential founders”
will not contribute to future generations, so
that we need to start with more—sometimes
many more—wild-collected animals to
achieve 20 effective founders.
This would likely even more so be the
case in a population of purebred dogs for
several reasons. A breeding plan designed
to maintain as much of the founding genetic
diversity as possible would require the
collective cooperation of all breeders as it
must use all existing reproductive dogs in an
optimally designed and rigorously managed
breeding scheme. But dog breeders have
specific breeding priorities of their own, such
as selection for particular traits in their dogs
(e.g., color, leg length, behavioral traits), or
preferences to use particular individuals in
their breeding program. Their breeding options might also be constrained by geography,
or by available space and other resources. The
presence of known genetically based health
issues will also influence breeding decisions,
and selection against genes that can cause
health problems (while sometimes necessary)
further reduces the variation across the rest
of the genes as well, because the selection by
definition reduces the number of breeders
contributing to the next generation. Thus, it
seems highly unlikely that all custodians of
breeding individuals could fully cooperate
with a breeding strategy designed to ensure
www.basenji.org
equal contributions of all founders to subsequent generations. With selective breeding,
the genetic diversity in the founding population can be substantially reduced in just a
few generations (Oliehoek, Bijma, & van der
Meijden 2009; Maki 2010).
3) If a large number of founders cannot be
obtained initially, or if some of those lineages
are lost or under-represented in subsequent
generations, or if breeder goals will necessarily include selection for desired traits
and against genetic problems, then low and
declining diversity of the population can later
be increased or restored through the addition
of new founders—if available—to the breeding stock. This can bring back genetic variants
that once represented the species or breed
but were lost by chance, reverse incidental
fixation of deleterious genes and accumulated inbreeding, and provide the diversity
necessary for continued modification and
improvement through selection.
4) Full analysis of the population genetics of
the (worldwide) pedigree of Basenjis has not
been done, so there is no information about
how well the genetic diversity of founders
has been maintained, or about the degree
15 of inbreeding in the existing population. A
genetic analysis using pedigree information
for all dogs back to founders could provide
substantial insights as to the value of any
additional founders. This information would
also allow breeders to make the best possible
decisions about the use of their breeding
stock by identifying populations of dogs that
are most critical to maintain in the breeding
population, and the degree of imbalance in
the contributions of founders to the current
generation (Lacy 1989; Ballou & Lacy 1995).
5) Basenjis are one of the (very) few breeds
where a large population of animals from
which the founders were originally drawn
still exists in Africa, and these animals have
not been subject to an organized breeding
program, so mating has likely been more or
less random. Consequently, we can expect
that in such a population, a diversity of
genetic alleles will still be present. Selecting
animals randomly from this well-mixed gene
pool is most likely to yield a genetic subsample that reflects the actual genetic diversity
in the native African dogs. If the selection of
animals is not random (for example, certain
traits are desired, or some traits simply do not
result in dogs that will be successful breeders
www.basenji.org
if brought out of Africa), or if the dogs cannot
be collected across the geographic range
(possibly resulting in some lineages in Africa
being sampled several times), then a larger
number of new founders is required to obtain
a good representation of the diversity of the
breed.
6) We assume that the desire to increase the
genetic heterogeneity of the pedigree Basenji
population is motivated at least in part by
concern about the possibility of unacceptable
levels of genetic diseases in the future as a
consequence of the small size of the founder
population and subsequent inbreeding. Such
problems have arisen in many breeds (canine
and otherwise) that descend from small numbers of founders or have small breeding populations, and can be difficult to counter once
the problems become prevalent enough to
be to make it clear that restoration of genetic
variation is needed. However, one issue
breeders might be concerned about is that the
addition of new animals can introduce again
to the breeding stock potentially deleterious
genes. We do not believe that this problem
will be significant enough to override the
benefits of restored genetic variation. The
problem is not that deleterious alleles exist—
as it is the case that all animals carry some
deleterious recessive alleles and a few new
ones arise by mutation every generation—but
rather that in a small population or one with
few founders some of the deleterious alleles
can be expressed in homozygous condition in
a number of animals. It should be noted that
natural selection continues to work on wild
populations, and with much greater force and
efficiency that in populations under our care,
so that deleterious alleles will have been held
to very low frequencies. In a large, genetically
diverse population, therefore, the probability
of producing offspring that are homozygous
for the disease allele is very low.
Especially for Basenjis, which in Africa
are subject to strong natural selection when
they fend for themselves, it is reasonable
to expect that in the absence of evidence
to the contrary, the animals should be
genetically healthy, and a checkup from
a veterinarian should satisfy to catch
anything that might become a problem. Again, the key to managing health issues
is maintaining the genetic diversity of the
breeding dogs. If a deleterious allele does
become common enough to be a problem
for the breed, selection against that allele
might be practiced, but we need to recognize that such selection will also reduce the
genetic diversity across the rest of the genes,
and any beneficial traits carried by the dogs
that are removed from breeding will be lost
(Lacy 2000). Thus, having high diversity
within the breeding stock is essential both
to minimize expression of deleterious traits
and to allow selection to be practiced when
desired without inadvertently jeopardizing
the genetic health of the breed.
7) Thompson (2012) discusses the often-cited
number of 50 and correctly notes that this
refers to a recommendation for a minimum
effective population size, not the minimum number of founders. For the reasons
number of breeding animals, and this leads
to more rapid loss of the genetic diversity that
was brought in via the original founders. The recommendation of a minimum
effective population size of 50 is equivalent,
mathematically, to a recommendation to
keep the rate of increase in the coefficient
of inbreeding below 1% per generation. This
recommendation arises from the centuries
of experience of animal breeders regarding
what level of inbreeding can be accepted for a
moderate number of generations without incurring risk of genetic damage in the form of
higher frequency of genetic defects and lower
overall average fitness of individuals. High
levels of inbreeding have well documented
deleterious effects including reduced fertility,
“10% loss of diversity is not the benchmark for an acceptable starting point,
but rather is often defined as an end point below which a population should
not be allowed to descend, or as the point at which quick action should
be taken to obtain new founders to restore variation.”
discussed above, achieving the recommended
20 effective founders, might require fewer
or more than 50 initial imported animals.
The recommendation of 50 as a minimum
effective population size derives from a desire
to minimize the accumulation of inbreeding
subsequent to the founder generation.
The definition that Thompson gives for
effective population size is correct only under
very specific and idealized circumstances.
Effective population size is not, in general nor
in most populations, “the current number
of breeding individuals in a population that
contribute genes to succeeding generations.” Effective population size is the number of
breeding animals in a theoretical random
breeding population that would experience
the same rate of change in allele frequencies,
or the same degree of inbreeding, as seen
in the actual population (Lacy 1995). The
number of breeding animals will be close to
the effective population size only if breeding
is truly random. Of course, in any real breeding program, breeding is far from random
and some lineages contribute more to the
population as a whole than others, because
breeders select for specific traits or are
limited in their choice of sire. In pedigreed
dog breeds, the effective population size will
likely be substantially smaller than the actual
16 decreased litter size, lower birth weight, lower
survival, decreased resistance to disease, and
decreased tolerance of environmental stress
(Charlesworth & Willis 2009; Keller & Waller
2002; Lacy 1997; Ryan et al. 2002). Not every
inbred animal will be affected, but the probability of problems increases and the average
level of performance declines. Moreover, it
is not predictable which lineages will suffer
from inbreeding problems, and selection
programs aimed at reversing inbreeding
problems usually have only limited effectiveness (Lacy 2007).
8) Whenever possible, within breeding
programs for rare wildlife species, we start
to seek out new animals to boost genetic
diversity again whenever the cumulative
mean inbreeding level increases to about 5%
or more. When cumulative inbreeding levels
reach 10% or higher, we consider the need
for new animals to be urgent. For example,
the Association of Zoos and Aquariums
recently decided to open up breeding of even
endangered species to exchange with private
breeders who are not accredited members
nor bound by association policies that require
registry of animals in studbooks, when the
breeding population mean inbreeding rises
above 10%—unless a plan is in place to
www.basenji.org
quickly bring in new founders to restore the
lost variation to the more tightly controlled
population.
Thompson (2012) mistakenly describes
the goal of 90% of the diversity of the source
population (equivalent to cumulative
inbreeding no greater than 10%) as the goal
for starting a population, whereas the 90%
criteria is actually widely applied as the limit
for acceptable genetic decay over the longterm (e.g., 100 years) for a viable population
designed to sustain and represent the source
population (i.e., 10% loss of diversity is not
the benchmark for an acceptable starting
point, but rather is often defined as an end
point below which a population should not be
allowed to descend, or as the point at which
quick action should be taken to obtain new
founders to restore variation). While conservation biologists do aim to start breeding
programs of wildlife with at least 20 effectively contributing breeders (i.e., 97.5% of source
diversity), we recognize that after a number of
generations of propagating a small breeding
stock, we often cannot avoid losing some
or even much of the diversity that had been
present in the founders. The goal of never
dropping below 90% of the source population
diversity drives both the recommendation to
start with much more diversity than this, and
the recommendation to maintain an effective
population size greater than 50 so that further
losses are no more than 1% per generation. A
simple calculation shows that if the starting
diversity is about 97.5% and 1% is lost in each
subsequent generation, then the population
can be sustained above the 90% goal for only
7-8 generations. Although this short-term
strategy often is acceptable for endangered
species breeding programs that are designed
to be a temporary reserve for a species until
they can be returned to a better protected
wild habitat (e.g., as has been done with
condors, black-footed ferrets, Mexican wolves,
and red wolves), presumably people who
sustain special breeds of dogs are interested
in longer term preservation. Therefore, good
genetic management will require more initial
founders, a much larger breeding population
allowing slower inbreeding, more rigorous
control over breeding based on pedigree
rather than expressed traits, and/or periodic
replenishment of diversity with new founders.
9) Inbreeding levels in some dog breeds are
aware of the value for Basenjis, we would
expect that it is probably higher than 10% as
well. For perspective, a mean inbreeding level
of 10% is the equivalent of having the genetic
diversity that would be provided by only 5
founders—which would not seem to be a very
good representation of the breed. So for the
pedigree Basenji, which is an unmanaged
population (i.e., there is no single authority
responsible for making breeding decisions),
and which has limited opportunities for introducing new breeding stock on a regular and
continuing basis, we would recommend that
breeders should not forego the opportunity to
add new animals whenever dogs representing
the breed can be added to the breeding programs. This will help to maintain the genetic
diversity in the population as a whole in the
face of the conflicting demands on breeders. For all purebred dogs (and wildlife species,
for that matter), the goal is healthy animals
that represent the breed well and can continue to respond to selection. Selecting only
for breed-specific traits without also actively
working to sustain the underlying genetic
diversity needed to produce a healthy dog
would ultimately result in failure. Two well
established and even fundamental principles
of genetic management are that (1) accumulated inbreeding almost inevitably causes
reduced fitness and performance in a sexually
reproducing species, and (2) variation is
necessary to allow successful selection for desired traits or against deleterious traits. With
adequate knowledge of the ancestry and current genetic structure of the breed, and some
prudent breeding strategies, breeders can
achieve their breeding goals while protecting
the health of their animals and safe-guarding
the future of the breed. Pedigree analysis
software is available for assessing the
effective population size, the loss of genetic
variation to date, the rate of accumulation
of inbreeding, and the potential benefits of
adding new founders (Lacy, Ballou, & Pollak
2012). Genetics management advisors who
are experienced in pedigree analysis for zoos
would likely be available to assist by providing
analyses and advice to Basenji and other dog
breed groups. Regularly updating the genetic
analysis of the population as new individuals
are added by birth or introduction, and
revisiting the breeding plan in light of new
information, is the best strategy to assure the
health of the breed for the long term. N

with Gordon Cole, an obedience trainer with the local German Shephard
club. He used the step method: Gordon held Jimmy and let him watch Pat
put down treat, take a step, put down treat, one step, treat , and so on for
10 steps, then put down a “dump or jackpot” (six pieces). Then, with Jan on
the end of the lead, Jimmy went from treat to treat for 10 steps. He realized
what was involved after about three steps. Next time—treat every second
step and add a curve at the end. Jimmy learned very fast that at the end of
the track was a jackpot. The second time he did it he ate the treat at the start,
then followed the scent of Jan’s footsteps to the jackpot at the end. To heck

abundance during this time. Unfortunately, the majority of our
snakes are among the most deadly in the world, and I (as an ex-Kiwi)
am happy to give them the right of way.
So all the Tracking fanatics count down the days till the weather
cools down—with the first Trial being conducted in early May, and the
last in late September. The dog is on a harness and a 10 metre lead. He
does all the work; the handler just happens to be on the end of the lead.
The only input from the handler is to keep the dog focused. Any attempt
to “lead” the dog will result in a fail.
culminating in the Tracking Champion (tch). To get the Tracking
Dog title, the dog must achieve a Pass in three different Tracks, indicating the articles left along the track by the tracklayer, and finding the
person hidden at the end of the Track. The Tracklayer has the reward
provided for the dog by the owner.
There are a further three Tracks to pass for the tdx title—and
for their Tracking Championship a final track must be successfully
negotiated.
These Tracks (depending on their level) range from 400 metres in
length up to 1.2 km in length. The length of time the track has been
“cooking” ranges from 20 minutes for a beginner, up to two–three hours
for the tch.
Tracking is done in all weathers whether it is teeming with rain,
snowing or blowing a gale. The only thing which would postpone the
start of a trial would be pea souper fog—because the Tracklayer needs
to be able to see the flags in order to lay the track for the dog.
Tr acking Levels in Austr alia
There are two levels of Tracking in Australia—the initial level involving
the Tracking Dog (td) title; the Tracking Dog Excellent (tdx); and

achieved good passes. Bev felt that Aussie had an easier job doing the
tsd titles—the person at the end has to be found, but it is not necessary
to find any articles on the track.
The typical bit of Basenji “cutting corners” is frowned upon but
in one test Aussie had already worked out where the person was. His
theory was why go the long way round when you can achieve the same
result just by cutting straight across to them!
Aussie doesn’t “do” cold. He and Bev were tracking in sleet and light
snow. After finding the tracklayer successfully, the judge, tracklayer,
stewards and Bev had to retrace their steps to get back to the starting
point. Not Aussie! He took off flat-out with Bev struggling along
behind him—straight back to the base camp and into the shed beside
the pot-bellied stove. Let the others find their own way home—Aussie
wasn’t going to be cold for anyone.
Aussie’s final urban night track was a magnificent effort—800
metres at night in a city achieved in eight minutes for a Pass grading of
Excellent! The judge was running to keep up!
Aussie missed the award as the top tsd dog for the year by a measly
one point. Not bad for the first Basenji up against the multitude of
Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans that
normally frequent the Tracking Trials.
The Tr ack and Search Dog title
There are two levels to climb to achieve the pinnacle of Track and
Search Dog Excellent (tsdx). At this stage, there is not a Championship for Track and Search but it is hoped to add this level in the very
near future.
The first level (involving the passing of three tests) is Track and
Search Dog (tsd). The second level, also comprising three tests, is
Track and Search Dog Excellent (tsdx). The last tsd test to achieve
Excellent is an urban night test.
T
o the best of our knowledge there are only three Basenjis that have trialled consistently (at this stage) in Australia.
The groundbreaker is the little old man Dual Ch Taqsim
Signet Silkn Smoke tsdx (Aussie to his friends). Aussie’s handler is
his proud breeder Bev Reid.
His sire is Ch Tamsala Silkn Memory and his dam the black/white
American import Aust/Amer Ch Signet Where There’s Smoke bred by
Brenda Cassell. He was born 7 August, 2000.
Aussie started tracking at the tender age of 9 years, and consistently
passed his tests. He liked to have a roll on some ‘roo poo’ here, check
out that log there, sniff out the bunnies over there—but he always came
straight back onto his track.
Aussie was the first Basenji to achieve a Tracking Championship
title in Australia. He then progressed to his tsd titles, and once again
Aussie’s success at Tracking Trials encouraged me to start tracking
with my Swedish import Ch Yulara Mutua (Turnip). I had first read
19
www.basenji.org
It’s not about you—or your show wins—or who you know—it is
all about the dog. You are merely the person holding the end of the
lead. Your dog does the work—whether he’s industriously wrapping
you around a gum tree, checking out the wildlife or tracking enthusiastically to find the Tracklayer and get his treat (Jimmy’s favourite is
barbequed kangaroo sausages).
“Turnip is so curious,” writes Jan.
“He has to check out everything and
often forgets to come back on track.
It took me a long time to be able to read
his body language and know when he
was just stuffing around. He would
acknowledge a corner with a tiny flick
of his ear and continue straight on to
check something out. If I missed that
flick and followed him and he would
just say, ‘oh well she wants me to go this
way, whatever!’
“Jimmy (shown at right) is the
opposite—very easy to read. He just
puts his head down and goes: Right on
the track, can’t deviate anywhere, must
find the person with the treat at the end.
He ignores the person—just says ‘give
me the food—now!’”
Track and Search Dog Excellent (tsdx)
A Test Six Urban Evening/Night Track
The track is 800 metres. A person has become lost in a contaminated
urban search area. It usually takes several hours before the person is
reported missing therefore most urban searches are conducted after dark.
This type of track is the most common type of track worked by
Search & Rescue dogs as the majority of all missing people become lost
in urban areas.
“Tracking is very addictive—all the people that Bev
and I track with are fascinated with the Basenjis.
They don’t track like ‘normal’ breeds which many of
our judges have commented on, and they take a bit
Explanation of tsdx 5 Urban & tsdx 6 Night Tracks
The tracks are 800 metres long. A person has become lost in a contaminated urban search area of varied surfaces including tar-sealed roads,
pavements, grass and foot trails. It should include distractions such as
parked cars, light vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The Track should be
laid utilizing any and all structures on site to ensure that dogs are able
to handle the diffusion of scent created by these structures. Tracks may
be laid in close proximity to buildings and fences. The exact start point
of the track should be known to the handler (i.e., a residential gateway,
front door or car door). The track should not cross a main road. Every
care should be taken when working the dog in traffic and to shorten the
lead and collect up any loose lead behind, ensuring the safety of the dog
should it attempt to cross a busy road.
If the person responsible for setting out the track is someone other
than the judge, they will be known as the Track Steward and will
accompany the Tracklayer at a discreet distance to ensure that the map
is followed exactly. They will also accompany the judge when the track
is being judged.
When mapping out the area for the tsdx 5 and tsdx 6 tracks, careful
consideration must be given to the various types of terrain on the track.
Judges must be mindful that the scent will cling to fences, kerbs, foliage
of any type etc, even though the track may have been laid on the street
verge. Asphalt and smooth concrete does not hold the scent as well as
other types of terrain. Some allowance needs to be made for difficult
terrain, but at the same time, such terrain should not be avoided.
Cars and other traffic will permeate the air with fumes which adds
extra challenges to the dog. Vehicles are often parked on street verges
or driveways after the track has been laid and the dog is expected to
continue tracking whilst negotiating changes on the track.
The tsdx 6 track may utilize areas lit by street lights, safety lighting
around buildings and some areas which are quite dark. Tracks may
be laid in the late afternoon in order for the Tracklayer to make use
of daylight and then worked during late evening or after dark. Where
lighting is poor, it is essential that the handler wears a good head light to
ensure that some visibility is given and they are able to discern between
ground levels to minimize minor injuries.
As no markers are in place for the Tracklayer to follow, the Tracklayer will be provided with a detailed map and the Track Steward who will
be familiar with the track can follow closely to theTracklayer when the
track is being laid to ensure that it is laid correctly. Note that the map
must clearly indicate which side of the road the Tracklayer is to walk.
The best advice I can give is to trust your dog. The bond built up
between you and your Basenji is something to cherish. N
of time for the judges to get used to. Basenjis think
for themselves and you can see them working out
the solution to a problem.”
Requirements for tests
Tracking Test One
Trail approximately 400 metres. Known Tracklayer. Two changes of
direction. One article on the track. The track is laid 20–40 minutes
before the dog starts. The Tracklayer must be found.
His first trial was not a success, having always trained in paddocks.
His initial experience with bush was overwhelming and he became
rather confused. But since that time, he has rediscovered his joy for
Tracking and has quickly passed up to the Tracking Dog level.
Jimmy is a better tracking dog than his father in that he only wants
to find the person at the end for the goodies—whereas Turnip liked to
take the scenic route.
about Basenji’s tracking back in the 1970’s in Hawaii with Rex Tanaka
and his magnificent Basenji Ch Il-Se-Ott Golden Majorette. At that
stage, a dog had to have their highest Obedience title before they
could progress to Tracking—and I knew that was never going to
happen with any Basenji I owned.
Turnip took to Tracking like a duck to water, but whereas Aussie
always came straight back onto his track after a little side detour—Turnip liked to investigate. It took a while (and several failures on Turnip’s
part) for me to be able to read his body language better, and know when
he was ‘off with the fairies’.
His most embarrassing episode during a track was when he was
called off his Track 5 by the judge. The track was in a sheep paddock—
the bane of my existence! The previous dog, a Vizsla, had to do his
track in torrential horizontal rain. He passed. For Turnip’s track, the
rain stopped—but apparently the addition of water to sheep droppings
makes them the most tempting substance ever.
Turnip spent the first 200 metres grabbing sheep ‘poo’ from both
sides of the track! He was beside himself with the taste—it was like a
drug. The judge stood it for only so long and then stopped the test. With
a bit of training for the rest of the track, Turnip learned that sheep poo
was not as tempting as he had first thought. Turnip passed his Tracking
Championship in 2012. He will start his tsd in the next 12 months.
The third Basenji taking part in Tracking Trials is Turnip’s tricolour
son Jimmy (Tamsala Jiminy Cricket). He started his training as a baby
puppy and his main aim in life is to find the person at the end because
they have “goodies.”
its conclusion. The dog shall be started 60 to 90 minutes after the main
track has been laid. There will be two articles placed on the track. The
Tracklayer must be found at the end of the track to obtain a pass.
I
had shown my Basenjis consistently for 42 years in conformation. The thing that I noticed immediately after taking up Tracking was the difference in the people and their attitude towards
each other and their dogs.
Gone are the fancy outfits to compliment their dog in the ring. In
their place are solid waterproof shoes, warm clothing, beanies, and
waterproof jackets. The strangely shaped ‘boobs’ on the women are the
heavy socks shoved in the bra to get the scent established beforehand
on articles used to lay the track. Likewise the men all have “beer bellies”
from socks under their coats.
There is a lot of hanging around in Tracking while you await your
dog’s turn to track. During that time, we have lots of friendly chatting
around our cars in the bush clearings—or sitting around a potbellied
stove pumping out the heat.
Everyone is happy to help each other—whether solving a problem
like Turnip’s sheep poo fetish, or the best harness and where to buy it.
You soon find yourself helping to lay tracks by being a Tracklayer or as a
diversion or learning to be a steward.

Tracking Champion Test Requirements, Test Seven
Track length 1200 metres. Two cross tracks. Three articles on the track.
Minimum of six turns, of which two are acute. Blind start—the start
article is placed in a sealed plastic bag—the dog finds the start of the
track. The track is laid 90-180 minutes prior to the test.
Track and Search Dog (tsd) Test One
The dog is required to track an unknown person over a trail of approximately 800 metres of varied surfaces which may include vegetation,
sand, gravel limestone or similar. The Track will have four changes of
direction. Thirty minutes after the main tracklayer has commenced
the track, the first part of the Track will be re-walked by a diversion
Tracklayer. The diversion Tracklayer will rewalk the track for not less
than 30 metres from the start and leave no closer than 30 metres from
the first change of direction.
The start flag and all other flags indicating the direction of the track
up to the point where the diversion Tracklayer makes his/her turn, will
be left in position by the main Tracklayer. The diversion Tracklayer will
remove the start flag and all other flags up to the point where the main
Tracklayer has continued on. The starting line flags will remain.
The Judge will, when the track has aged sufficiently, take the Handler
and the dog to approximately 30 metres from the starting line, hand
or indicate the unopened bag to the Handler and inform him that he is
free to start tracking.
The dog will be in harness and must hunt for the track by free quartering off-lead or searching on-lead (fixed collar).
When the dog has indicated to the handler that it has located the
track, the dog must be stopped sufficiently to allow the tracking lead
to be fastened onto the harness. The dog must then follow the track to

Measuring Station 2012 Report
Breeders Education Committee
Laurie Stargell and Susan Coe
From the Standard: “Ideal height for dogs is 17 inches and bitches 16 inches.
Dogs 17 inches and bitches 16 inches from front of chest to point of buttocks.”
T
he Measuring Station was
visited by 144 dogs in July 2012 at the
bcoa Nationals in Gettysburg, PA.
The dogs were not all conformation dogs;
many performance dogs and a number of
strictly companion dogs were also measured.
One-hundred and forty-four Basenjis seems
like quite a few dogs (especially if you were
in line patiently waiting to be measured, or
doing the measuring!) but when it is broken
down into sex and age categories it isn’t a
statistically dependable sampling as of yet.
So please plan on attending the Measuring
Station in July 2013 at the bcoa Nationals in
Auburn, WA to have your Basenjis included
in this important study.
The breakdowns are shown in the charts
for Adult Males, Adult Females, Puppy Males
and Puppy Females. The adult categories
were for individuals over one year old and the
puppies were all between 6 months and one
year old. Participants on the thin or rather
plump side were noted.
The 65 Adult Males were born between
December 1997 and January 2011. There were
11 males who measured right on 17 inches tall
but their lengths varied. Another 23 males
were just over 17 up to and including 17½
inches tall. Eight males were just “under”
with measurements from 16½ up to but not
including 17 inches. So from 65 males, 41 were
within one-half inch below or above 17 inches.
Just three males were outside of an inch (16-18
inches) of the standard for height. Taken
together, this indicates that 95% of the males
measured were within an inch of the “ideal”
17 inches. The average height of the Adult
Males was 17½ inches and length was 18¾
inches. The weight column is interesting to
look over but not too informative as there
doesn’t seem to be a correlation with the
height/length and weight information.
The desired weight from the standard:
“Approximate weight for dogs, 24 pounds and
bitches, 22 pounds.”
The male closest to the standard in height,
length and weight is highlighted in the
table. Another dog was the same height and
length but his weight was not as close to the
standard.
The 54 Adult Females were born between
November 1997 and January 2011. The average
height was 16 ⅛ inches tall. The average length
was 17⅛ inches long. So the ratio of height to
length is close to one inch longer than tall. An
interesting aside was that one of the largest
males was a littermate to one of the smallest
females.
Some general notes: 10 of the 54 ladies
were right on 16 inches tall; 20 more were
between those and 16½ inches. Five were just
over 16 and up to 16½ inches. Just 6 females
were outside of an inch (15-17 inches) of the
standard for height. In summary, 89% of the
females were within an inch of the desired
height. The lengths varied considerably.
No one single female seemed to fit as close
to the parameters of 16" x 16" x 22 pounds as
did the single male. The girls who measured
closest, and some came very close, to square
tended to weigh well under the desired 22
pounds. Two who are closest are highlighted
in the chart.
The Puppy charts are set out by age rather
than by size. The youngest are first.
The youngest Puppy Male was born in
January 2012 and the oldest in November
2011. The youngest Puppy Female was born
January 2012 and the oldest in November 2011.
The chart shows the Puppy Females from
youngest to oldest. N
See charts facing page.
Measuring Your Basenji
With the dog standing in a relaxed manner, that is not stretching up to make itself
impressively tall or crouching, the height is measured from ground to the highest point of
the shoulder blade. The length is measured from the front of the chest, the slight fore-chest
that all dogs have to the furthermost point of the rear that is at the end of the pelvis at the
point of buttocks.
The scale used for the Measuring Station was similar to what is professionally used at veterinarian offices for small dogs.

What’s up with
CERF?
18th Annual Independent Specialty
Friday, July 26, 2013
by Bill McCann
Word comes from the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (ofa)
and the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists
(acvo) that they have established a new joint Eye Certification
Registry (ecr) and Clinical Database for Ophthalmic Diagnoses (cdod). The ecr and cdod have been up and running since
November 1, 2012.

SPECIALTY JUDGES
Dr. Edna K. Martin, Conformation
Mrs. Lisa Marshall, Sweepstakes (Puppy and Veteran)
Reports the ofa: Ofa Eye Certification Registry exams are ophthalmic examinations, performed by acvo Diplomates, to assess dogs for
the presence or absence of observable hereditary ocular disease. Dogs
with normal exam results will receive ofa eye certification numbers
valid for one year.
SILENT AUCTION
BREAKFAST & LUNCH ONSITE
Ofa goes on to say: Recognizing that animals presenting for a Certification Exam represent a biased population of primarily normal dogs,
the cdod will capture aggregate statistics regarding disease prevalence
for those animals presented to acvo Diplomates in private and institutional clinical practices. The acvo Vision for Animals Foundation,
which supports research into ocular disease in animals, will receive a
portion of the proceeds from all ofa eye registrations.
CLOSING DATE

President of vdb/cerf Robert Malinowski, dvm, ma
responded in part: The new registry is a separate organization from
cerf. Cerf is not merging with ofa, nor are we being acquired by ofa.
Cerf will remain an independent entity and will continue its close
working relationship with ofa and acvo Diplomates.

Plan to attend these shows as well
How, then, should bcoa members understand these changes?
First, some background.
Purdue University and its American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (acvo) has long been the educational hub for training
veterinarians who wish to specialize in ocular disease. A graduate of the
acvo is said to be an acvo Diplomate.
Waukesha Kennel Club
Saturday, July 27, 2013 (BCOSW supported entry)
Sunday, July 28, 2013 Waukesha County Exposition Center
Waukesha, Wisconsin
Many years ago, the acvo decided that they didn’t want to be in the
database business, hiring and managing an administrative staff to produce eye exam certificates for dog owners, so the acvo subcontracted
that task to a database vendor. That vendor was Canine Eye Registration Foundation (cerf).
Superintendent
Onofrio Dog Shows, LLC
www.onofrio.com
mail@onofrio.com
Cerf printed the exam forms as specified by the acvo. After the exam,
owners had the option to mail their copy, along with a fee, to cerf.
Cerf would then issue a number and a certificate. In recent years, cerf
began to provide their issued certificate information to ofa for their
database. Breeders who test for eye issues are very familiar with this
process.
26
www.basenji.org
As many of you may know, every two years a board of acvo veterinarians reviews the cerf database of eye exams by breed to look for trends
or concerns which might suggest hereditary issues. This board has
made two recommendations aimed specifically at Basenjis: 1) the presence of iris-to-iris positioned persistent pupillary membranes (ppm)
will not prevent a Basenji from being certified. 2) The exam procedure
acvo vets are to follow is to first examine for ppm and then apply drops
to dilate the pupils for the rest of the exam.
Over time, it became clear to the acvo and its review board that the
data they were getting from cerf was skewed; biased toward the
primarily normal population of dogs presenting for a cerf exam. Often,
if a dog’s eye exam resulted in a diagnosis which would prevent it from
being certified, owners would take the information into account when
planning future breedings but would chose not to pay $12 to send the
exam results into cerf. Without the abnormal results, the database
provides an inaccurate view of eye health to researchers and breeders.
The data most useful to the acvo would require a more complex and
comprehensive database than cerf was able or willing to supply.
Acvo’s search for an alternative database contractor led them to ofa
which has the most extensive animal health database in the world. Ofa
was willing to work with acvo to create a new database: the Clinical
Database for Ophthalmic Diagnoses (cdod) and a partner registry,
Eye Certification Registry (ecr). Acvo believes that breeders, owners
and dog breeds in general will be better served by the cdod and ecr.

BCOA National Specialty DVDs
Enjoy puppy antics, seasoned competitors, and the African Stock
Exhibition—all from the best seat in the house. The complete
DVD set is only $160. DVDs are also available individually.
The ofa has committed to more frequent and enhanced reporting of
aggregate statistics regarding disease prevalence and progression by
breed. Enhanced reporting will be available for acvo Diplomates and
for Parent breed clubs. Regularly updated aggregate statistics will be
available to the public on the ofa website. The ofa’s cdod will capture
data from acvo Diplomates on canine eye exams conducted in an
institutional or practice setting where the dog is presenting for reasons
other than a certification exam. The inclusion of this data will greatly
enhance disease monitoring. As a not-for-profit organization, the ofa
will be sharing a negotiated percentage of all eye registrations with
the acvo Vision For Animals Foundation to support research leading
to the treatment and elimination of ocular disease. Submission of eye
exams to the ofa will support all of these efforts and will maximize the
value of data in a single central database.
YouTube video clips of your dog(s) only; in motion and
on the table during the examination can be ordered with the
purchase of any other DVD. They may not be purchased individually. These clips are a great record of your dog's performance
at the National Specialty and can be uploaded to your website,
YouTube, FaceBook or anywhere you would like your dog to be
seen!

So there are, indeed, changes in the world of canine eye exams. But
some things haven’t changed at all. The exam itself is exactly the same;
only the form is slightly different. Acvo Diplomates are not changing
exam procedures; they are not looking for anything new.
Conformation
Regular Dog Classes $35
Regulat Bitch Classes $35
Best of Breed $35
One change all of us will have to get used to, however, is an addition
to our vocabulary; the addition of ecr as the new database collection

roll off our tongues as easily as akc or cerf or ofa.

Social Media Committee Report
By Clay Bunyard
The BCOA page on Facebook, facebook.com/Basenji.org, has continued to demonstrate a steady growth in exposure with another 452
likes since the last committee update for a total of 1,087 (Aug-Jan). The
audience continues to be predominantly non-BCOA members. Basenji
breeders that are currently listed on the BCOA website breeder directory and also have Facebook pages for their kennels are now connected
to the BCOA page. This provides the opportunity for greater exposure
beyond the BCOA website.
Also since the last committee update, creation of a BCOA YouTube
channel was approved by the BCOA officers and board of directors and
was launched in late October 2012. Some education content from the
BCOA website and Basenji University has been loaded on the channel.

Heartfelt thanks go out to three of our knowledgeable mentors from
the Pacific Northwest for demonstrating true excellence in the fine art
of mentoring our up and coming conformation judges. In the words of
appreciative judge Harold R. Brizee:
“Just a short note to say how great a job Bryan Gregory, Laura Pond,
and especially Katie Campbell did as tutors at the Evergreen Basenji
Club Specialty and the Western Washington Hound Association shows
earlier this month. Their very positive approach to discussing the
strong points of your breed rather than dwelling on the faults was most
refreshing. I consider this one of the two best educational experiences
I’ve had in my 20 years of judging. This experience will serve me well
when I apply for your breed at the end of next year and you and your
club should be proud to be represented by three such fine people. Katie
went overboard to insure that I was well attended during the three days
of shows, for this I give special thanks.”
Well done, ladies and gentleman.
Upcoming events for the Judges Education Committee include the
AKC/DJAA Judges Education Coordinator Symposium in Orlando,
FL in December, the American Canine Education Foundation Hound
Institute in Louisville, KY in March and the BCOA National Specialty
in Auburn, WA in July.
As always, the JEC Slide Show can use your informative photos to
illustrate the finer points of breed type. Please keep them coming!
We have a very busy year scheduled as we have been asked to do breed
presentations for all three of the major judges associations in 2013.
We will be at the American Canine Education Foundation’s Hound
Group Institute in Louisville, KY in March, the Dog Judges Association
of America Hound Breeds Seminars and Workshops in Houston, TX in
July and the American Dog Show Judges Advanced Institute in Indiana,
PA in August.

We are looking forward to the BCOA National Specialty and our
own Judges Breed Study Group in Auburn, WA on July 17. We will be
handing out copies of the updated Illustrated Standard at these seminars and have already seen a great response to the new brochure.
We have had another instance of a judge uncurling a Basenji’s tail in
the ring and this time, unfortunately, a junior showmanship competitor
was involved. We discussed the situation with the AKC and a letter will
be printed in an upcoming issue of the judges’ newsletter The Standard
to remind judges not to uncurl tails, no matter how tempting it may
be. The AKC will also revise the Junior Showmanship Guidelines to
inform judges that they are not to uncurl the tail during a breed specific
examination of the Basenji. If you see this happening in the ring, please
let me know. N

ROUTE 66 Basenji CLUB
REPRESENTING THE CONGO
at PURINA FARMS’ INTERNATIONAL CHEESE, WINE,
and CANINE FESTIVAL
by Angela Anderson
We had our Christmas Party/meeting in
early Dec. We talked a lot about our dogs,
elected officers, discussed what we want
to do next year, ate, and exchanged gifts.
Kim McNeill made 15 snugglies, sold them
and donated the proceeds to Peggy Shifflet,
coordinator of CO Basenji Rescue. Thank you, Kim. That was very
generous. As always, it was fun to sit around and talk about our Basenjis
and their antics. N
We were all quite confident that 1st Place would
be ours. How could we not win? To wit: Half of
our booth actually featured a grass hut which
housed carved dark-wood benches, African
drums, a “dirt” floor, and a blazing “campfire.”
The other half of our booth was decorated with African-motif cloths; we
provided quality Basenji literature as well as information about Basenji
rescue. We featured not only authentic Congolese artifacts, but also
photos of real, live African Basenjis living in the wild with their native
Congolese humans. Plus, every member of The Route 66 Basenji Club
was dressed in the Congolese style (except for one who cleverly dressed
in adventure clothes with a camera hanging around her neck, representing our “photographer in the wild”), and we had no less than 13 canine
Basenji “ambassadors” with us!
When Purina Farms announced the Festival, our club was quick to
sign up as participants. Since several members of The Route 66 Basenji
Club also belong to The Show-Me Basenji Club, we reasoned that both
clubs should enjoy the recognition, the fruits of our labor of love, and
the pride therein.
Purina Farms’ idea was brilliant: guests could sample cheeses and
wines from around the world, enjoy live entertainment (including
German dancing, Irish dancing accompanied by live instrumentalists,
and Middle Eastern belly dancers), all the while visiting with dogs representing various countries of origin. Clubs were encouraged to design/
decorate booths in manners that would best represent their breeds in
addition to providing meaningful information about them.
Our energetic club pounced on the idea of a hut, and to make it
happen, we borrowed props and contributed many of our own (drums,
hunting bells, photographs, artifacts). We made certain to provide literature about Basenjis, and even supplied brat brochures. Our booth
was fabulous, and our Basenjis themselves were terrific. We even earned
some bragging rights: A journalist working for Purina Farms chose our
dogs and booth to feature in Today’s Breeder, and the photographer took
dozens of photos to accompany the story.
The festival attendees (and even other presenters) raved about our
setup. The realistic-looking, flickering, yet completely fake campfire
was a favorite piéce de resistance. We were told by many that we were a
sure-win, and that we had received their votes for Favorite Booth. However, we did have some good competition. The Cavalier King Charles
Spaniel Club’s booth was cleverly decorated like a castle (complete with
turrets and parapets) and the club members were dressed in gorgeous
Tudor garb. Their dogs were presented on lavish cushions and pillows,
surrounded by prints of paintings in which their ancestors appeared
with royal families. Very, very impressive indeed. We complimented
their booth, and they sincerely returned the compliment to us.
Dallas Ft. Worth Basenji Club

The New Year has started sharply for the
DFWBC. The plans for our Specialty are
firmed up and we are excited about it. This
year’s Specialty will be held at 6:00 pm,
Friday, March 22, the night before the Ft.
Worth cluster at Will Rogers Memorial
Auditorium. Join us for our show and the
next day you are invited to come to our
Between Shows dinner at Martha Lee’s home in Euless. Our breed
judge this year is Karen Ahrends, a very nice lady who has spent a good
deal of time learning about Basenjis and likes them a great deal. Our
Sweeps judge is Denise Tatro, a Whippet breeder and exhibitor. We
are very pleased to have both these ladies for our show. Shortly we will
begin planning our annual Lure Coursing day at the Haggard’s farm
in Celina. In past years, this event has been well attended and lots of
fun. Information will be posted on our website and there is an open
invitation to all our hound friends. We hope all our Basenji friends
everywhere had a wonderful holiday season and are ready to go out in
this new year to take on all comers at the shows! N
The Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club
BY LeeBeth Cranmer
The Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club continued its tradition of sponsoring a
breed education booth at the Canine Learning Experience in Allentown, PA. On Jan. 26, Gail Dluzeski, Barbara and Dennis Narehood,
Mark Baime, Claire Andrews, Jane Johnson, and LeeBeth Cranmer
along with seven Basenjis ranging from seven-months old to 15-years
old greeted attendees and their dogs. The theme for this year's booth
was “What Lies Within: Health Issues in Your Breed.” The mabc booth
won an Honorable Mention award for its information on hereditary,
environmental and preventable concerns. The mabc has participated
in the event more than 20 times. It is a great opportunity to discuss our
breed with all the interested people we meet. Photos of the event and
the booth can be seen on the Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club's Facebook

Basenji Fanciers of Greater Phoenix
By Arnieta Kurtz
You know the saying about the best
laid plans—it surely was true a week
ago. We had planned to have the January club meeting here so everyone
could play with a litter of puppies.
Since we have had great weather—in
the sixties every day—the plan was
to have the meeting out in the sunny,
grassy yard. People could gather,
puppies could play, refreshments would be up out of the way. Mother
Nature saw otherwise. We had days (and especially nights) of almost
unprecedented cold. The temperatures held well below freezing for
several nights in a row. Plants bit the dust, but more to the point, pipes
froze—naturally the morning of the meeting. They made it through
the night, but as dawn broke I had a geyser shooting into the air. As the
water cascaded down it froze on everything so we could not turn off the
water at the source. Frantic calls to a handyman who had to be roused
from bed. At least he was able to finally turn off the water at the street,
but that meant it was turned off for the whole house—not good when
company is expected. Then a hurried visit to the hardware store for a
new valve up to the swamp cooler. (In Illinois, I never even knew what
a swamp cooler was!) I was soaked and muddy. The handyman was
soaked and muddy. Muddy footprints in and out of the house. That last
bit of straightening up before company went by the wayside. Luckily,
I had gotten the refreshments ready the day before, but I did have to
ask someone else to stop on the way for a bag of ice. (Hot coffee would
probably have been more appreciated!) Well, we survived. The puppies
had a great time visiting. The meeting was uneventful and productive.
The valve was replaced and pipes were wrapped in towels to prepare for
the coming night of freezing temperatures.
We are preparing for our next specialty and sweepstakes to be held
in November. We have been very lucky for the last two years with
holding the specialty by ourselves in a local park. Can we tempt fate for
another year or should we consider trying to find an indoor location?
Does such a place exist? These are all things that need to be decided
before we can send the paperwork in to AKC.
In February, we have been approved to hold a lure coursing trial
and JC Test. We will also be attempting the new AKC coursing ability
testing for mixed breeds and non-sighthounds. March should bring our
annual pre-Easter egg hunt and Easter bonnet parade. This is also when
we have our short show season—before the weather gets too hot. We
don’t even have regular meetings during the summer, which is when
most other areas of the country are having their busiest times. However,
we will be planning and working on our next specialty show to be ready
for the fall. N
Although winning would have vindicated our efforts (let’s be
honest: who doesn’t want to win?), the main purpose of this event was
to educate interested parties in features of your breeds, and we did this
with relish. When onlookers approached our booth (even if it was just
to get a closer look at the “fire”), one of our many club members would
eagerly greet them and bring a Basenji or two over to share in the introductions. We answered questions, shared anecdotes, and truthfully
listed the pros and cons of Basenji companionship.
I am very happy to report that one particular couple stopped by
our booth, visited every other booth in the event hall, but returned to
us. They asked all the right questions, and were very understanding
and attentive when we reiterated that Basenjis need a specific type
of home life and loving supervision. They said they were considering
a different breed (they actually came to the event to visit with those
dogs), but their hearts told them that they were meant to have a Basenji.
Our canine ambassadors entertained, wowed, and wooed them. Upon
learning that many Basenjis are immediately available through BRAT,
the delightful couple vowed to start the application process that night.
The fact that we reached even just two people and convinced them
that not only were they deserving of a Basenji, but that a rescued Basenji deserved them right back, made all of our hours of effort worth it.
That being said, I need to tell you that we didn’t win first place. Actually, much to the audible gasps of the crowd when it was announced, we
came in third. The Pembroke Welsh Corgis came in second; they had
a fairy-theme, and were apparently handing out candy to boot. Even
more inexplicably than us landing in third place was that the Dalmatian
booth came in first. Was it the overtly jingoistic patriotism (USA!
USA!) of their red, white, and blue décor and their inclusion of a turnof-the-century beer cart (Dalmatians used to accompany the Anheuser-Busch delivery men) that won over onlookers? We really don’t know,
but we have our playful suspicions.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the International Cheese, Wine,
and Canine Festival and will definitely rock it again next year. Although—we may have to build a real fire in our hut. If you ask me, that’s
the only way we can top ourselves! N

Basenji Club of Southeastern Wisconsin
By Clay Bunyard
RVW CLUB cont
What follows below is taken with permission from Dr. Jean Dodds.
In October 2012, the club held a fall
picnic at Lure Coursing Fanatics
in Caledonia, WI, giving the dogs a
chance to run in the sun before the
weather turns too cold. Even though
the weather was a bit cooler, our club
hosted one last NOTRA race meet in
Carthage, Indiana to finish out the
year’s events. Thanks to the generosity
of the Basenji fancy at the 2011 and
2012 BCOA National Specialties and
our regional club events, our 2011-2012
canvas shopping bag fundraiser for
the Congolese School at Epi was a
great success. It allowed us to add a little over $600 to our annual club
donation for 2012.
The club has identified several new initiatives to tackle in 2013
focused on a) modernizing our website to improve the experience for
both club members and visitors, b) identifying ways we can increase
our local outreach presence both locally and virtually, and c) refreshing
our club logo. So, 2013 will be a busy year!
Our 2013 Independent Specialty will be held again in Ixonia,
WI on July 26th. Our sweepstakes judge this year is Lisa Marshall,
Arendahl, Basenjis, and conformation judge is Edna Martin. As usual,
we will also be supporting the entry on July 27th at the Waukesha
Kennel Club show. N
Nutri-Scan
Does your dog have itchy skin or an irritable bowel?
Do you suspect your dog has a food intolerance?
Food intolerance or sensitivity is actually quite common whereas
food allergy is rare. In fact, food intolerance is the third most common
sensitivity condition in dogs and often can be easily remedied with a
change in diet. For years, though, the difficulty lay in figuring out what
foods were problematic—until now.
Developed by world renowned veterinarian, Dr. Jean Dodds,
NutriScan tests for the twenty most commonly ingested foods by dogs
to provide you with specific results as to your dog’s food intolerances
or sensitivities. Since it is a salivary test, you have the convenience to
complete the test at home or at your veterinarian’s office. Best of all, you
can have the results in approximately two weeks to help you put your
dog on the right diet.
Please remember, NutriScan is novel and patented and is not testing
for food allergies, but rather tests for food sensitivities and intolerance.
These are different body immune responses. Food allergy is a more
immediate reaction mediated by production of IgE and IgG antibodies.
Food sensitivity and intolerance, by contrast, measures a more delayed
body response to offending foods by measuring production of IgA and
IgM antibodies primarily in mucosal secretions from the bowel.
Dr. Dodds recommends that dogs are tested annually as, similar
to humans, canine food tolerances and intolerances change over time.
NutriScan is conveniently split into two test panels, so you can order
one or both. Please visit NutriScan online for more information. N

The Willamette Valley Basenji Club held
their 10th annual 1st concurrent specialty
on Friday, January 18, 2013. Our judges were
sweepstakes Mrs. Laura Pond, and breed
Mr. Jim Briley. For the past nine years, wvbc
has been held earlier in the week and we had
noticed as everyone else has a decline in our
entries. We were moved to Wednesday three
years ago which caused a large impact. After all, even though it is a
five show series, moving to the middle of the week made it extremely
difficult for many to attend. Our entries increased by almost 1/3, with
this move, so that is a big plus.
As you may know a concurrent is held during show hours, in the
first available ring after the all-breed clubs Basenji classes. Wvbc has
for years been their own show secretary, so it was a great shock to hand
over the reins to the show superintendent and just go with the flow. This
first year was a learning opportunity and in the future we will know
what to expect from the superintendent and what our responsibilities in
this new situation will be. The majors held, and with 19 in the sweepstakes and 50 (including Juniors) in the breed, we were pleased to see
the increase in entries. We sincerely thank all our exhibitors, sponsors,
judges and workers who helped make this specialty a success. And a big
congrats to all the winners.

American Kennel Club Opens
Basenji Stud Book
New York, NY – AKC announced today that, at the request of the Basenji Club of America (bcoa), it will open
the Basenji stud book to dogs from countries with
no AKC accepted registry. The bcoa has initiated this
program in order to offer an opportunity to import
dogs from their native land.

Editors note:
The evaluations on the following pages are direct
transcriptions of the hand-written notes of the
evaluators.
“Due to the changing circumstances in the areas
where these dogs thrive, this may be the last opportunity to import the breed from its homeland,” said bcoa
president Sally Wuornos. “The Basenji stud book has
been closed since 1990 when it was briefly opened to
imported native stock.”
The BCOA has established a ten-step process for dogs
who wish to apply, after which, members will vote to
ultimately approve the dogs’ entry into the stud book.
The stud book will be open from January 1, 2009
through December 31, 2013 for Basenjis who have
gone through the ten-step process, been approved
by the bcoa Board and membership, and that meet the
following requirements:
Applicant must be at least one year old
at time of evaluations;
Applicant must be imported after 1990 directly from
Africa or in utero from Africa;
Dogs from the following areas are currently under
consideration for admission:
Northern Congo
Southern Benin
Southwestern Cameroon
Central Congo
North Western Congo
For more information and all necessary forms
visit the Basenji Club of America web site:
www.Basenji.org
The complete petition to AKC, additional documents submitted for each native stock dog may
be viewed at:
www.Basenji.org/NativeStock/Applicants/
List.htm
www.Basenji.org/NativeStock/Applicants/
List2013.html
36 he following dogs presented
alphabetically have been through
two of the steps required to become
Registered Basenji Foundation Stock. All
required information has been provided and
each dog has had three hands-on evaluations: Approved Judge, Breeder-Judge and
Long-Time Breeder. The Evaluators have
judged them as typical of Basenjis and have
given them ratings of Fair or higher. The
entire applications and evaluations with
comments can be seen at www.Basenji.org.
Each dog has been individually considered
by the bcoa Board of Directors based on their
applications and evaluations. Each of these
dogs has received a majority Approved vote
by the Board.
The next step will be a general membership vote with each applicant grouped
by area of import—Avongara, Avuvi and
Ntomba 2013—for ease of voting. The general
membership vote will be on the group. Ballots
will be mailed out by April 1, 2013 and must
be returned post-marked on or before May 1,
2013 and received no later than May 6, 2013.
All individuals in each group getting a
two-thirds vote of “Approve” by the voting
membership will be submitted to the AKC to
be registered as Foundation Stock.

Coloring is poor & tail not curled enough.
However should be bred to encorporate into
the Basenji lines to get a bigger gene pool.
This sturdy sable dog with exceptionally level
topline is nicely angulated front & rear. He
move out with a ground covering stride and
possesses a sweet, happy temperament. He
has a lovely head with small, high set ears and
an almond shaped hazel eye. His chest falls
to his elbow and he has nice fill in front; his
shoulder is well set with a long upper arm.
He is off-square and his tail curls up and over
his back. He has a very sweet yodel and his
behavior is very typical of the breed. I was
able to observe his offspring out of an Avongara bitch and was very impressed with their
type and temperament. I believe that Gany is
a Basenji and has much to offer the breed.
Rather large, nice rear, moves a little close in
rear, nice front, no curl to tail, bite good, nice
bone for size, good topline, sable coloring
is distracting but natural in Africa to my
knowledge.
This dog has produced offspring of correct
color and type bred to another Avongara
bitch. This all leads me to believe he is a
Basenji. Light eyes but good pigmentation.

December 30, 2012 A Definite Basenji!! Great Temperament.
Good ears, Nice Movement, Good Topline.
Needs better tail but not bad.
Peanut has an outgoing, sweet and happy
temperament. Peanut’s overall appearance is
sturdy and robust with strong bone structure,
deep brisket and the needed spring of rib, to
do the job that she was bred to do. I wouldn’t
question her ability to hunt all day and be
ready for more the following day. Peanut is
a plainly marked red and white female with
a small blaze and small white collar on her
left side. She also has interesting white pips
or what appear to be white/lemon pips over
each eye. Those pips really enhance her dark
eye rims and the shape of her eyes. Peanut’s
skin is correct and very pliant. She is sturdy,
yet still a lightly built girl of proper 16” size
at the wither. She has that lovely quizzical
expression and an acceptable amount of
wrinkling, when her ears are erect. Peanut’s
ears are shaped very well and nicely hooded,
both which are so desirable in our breed. As
mentioned above, her eye rims are dark and
the shapes of her eyes correct. I would like to
see a touch bit darker eye, but they certainly
wouldn’t be considered light in color. Her eye
shape and set give that “far-seeing” expression; that the breed standard calls for, also. Peanut’s head shape is a bit masculine, but
planes, cushion, cheekiness and ratios are correct and without question, Basenji. Peanut’s
Rating 4 Very Good.

Peanut has the features of a Basenji. She has
some faults that is not going to hold her back
in breeding. I would have like to have seen a
better eye, she is long in body, and her tail is
not curled.
Her qualities out weigh her faults. She is
of proper size in height. She has a good head.
Her neck set is proper. When stacked and in
moving she places her feet in the way I like to
see a Basenji do. Her temperament was very
good. She did stand for exam and would come
up to me on the ground.
In my opinion she should be added to the
breeding stock.
Rating 3 Good.
40 bite is aligned well, but there is one tooth just
under the top row of teeth that prevents it
from being a correct scissors bite. Her neck
is well set, correct length and well set into her
shoulders. Her neck has correct amount of
crest, as well as the proper fullness at the base
of her throat. Topline is straight and correct
with her overall length of body being longer
the she is tall. Peanut’s shoulder assembly
is correct, well angulated and good layback. Her has correct amount of angulation and
nicely muscled, though a bit cow-hocked
when standing and moving. Peanut has very
correct feet that are well shaped with strong
pasterns and a correct arch to her toes. Tail
curls over back in one large curl with the set
being less than call for by breed standard.

Obviously a Basenji ! Lovely muzzle to back
skull proportions, small ears placed well on
skull, hooded when alert. Wrinkle showing
when ears up. Well placed, properly shaped
eyes, brown blending well with rich, red coat
color. Strong topline he holds while moving, full body, nicely sprung ribbing, lovely
underline with nice tuck up, even at 6 years old.
Beautiful strong feeling bone but not overdone.
Excellent feet with just a slight tipping of white
on front toes. well up on leg with wonderful
front to rear balance. front well placed, good
shoulder & upper arm, great forechest. Moderate rear angulation. Skin pliant but coat a bit
heavy & substantial undercoat. I would also
prefer a bit longer neck, but it does have an arch.
Pigment strong. tail could be higher set it has
a gentle curve, no curl. It wags freely. Temperament seems very stable. He was discerning
upon our meeting but accepting in a short time.
holds his strong back when moving, very sound
going away, sound enough moving toward youjust a tiny “off” moving feet but getting quite
happy. Smooth, efficient, easy gait. Because of
tail and coat I must use the “good” category but
I feel this dog has some outstanding features to
be added to a breeding program.
“Kudo” is a square, leggy old-style Basenji
who could have stepped out of the pages of
Veronica’s blue book. He is dark red and very
plainly marked with minimal white markings.
He has good skull to muzzle proportion, small,
high set ears, wrinkle when alert, dark eyes,
black nose and a foxy little face. He is moderately angulated with equal of shoulder & upper
arm. His movement is light and springy from
the side and he is sound coming and going. His
tail is low set and carried up over his back when
alert. his temperament is alert and cautious but
calm and he is friendly when he gets to know
you. “Kudo” is a Basenji of the old school and I
believe he has a lot to offer the breed.
Correct standard sized red/white dog @ 17 X
17. Beautiful bone and feet. Has required white
on all four feet although just barely. White
chest and belly. Tail tip physically missing.
Head very foxy and well planed and chiseled.
Muzzle slightly shorter than foreface. Could
use more cushioning. eyes slightly rounded
but nice dark color. Could use darker pigment
although has extremely red coat may give
illusion of lighter contrast. Ears well set &
small. Coat very dark chestnut. Slightly thick
but time of year (Fall) may come into play. Has
visible wrinkle. Moderately angled in the rear.
Decent shoulders although slightly straight
and set toward neck. Equal proportions of
shoulder blade to upper arm. Topline has a dip
behind shoulders and slightly rounded croup
with slight dropoff at tail. Tail set okay but
carries straight. Might have been traumatized
at an early age since tip missing. Movement
typical. Good rear. Little narrow in front.
Appears friendly and affable. Slightly cautious.

Bengi is a small, square and lightly built dog
that gives the appearance if being high on leg.
He is slightly smaller then the ideal 17” but is
well-proportioned for his size. He carries his
head high with erect, hooded ears that are
set well forward on the top of his head. His
muzzle is slightly shorter than his skull and
his head had nice cushioning. He has plenty
of wrinkle when his ears are erect and alert.
He has exceptional pigment around his nice
dark eyes and his nose.
Bengi has a well-crested neck that is
well-set into his shoulders. He has a nearly
level topline with a nice short-coupled back.
He has a nice depth of chest and amount of
forechest. His tail is set fairly high (though
dropping off slightly at the croup), and reaches over his back in a large loop. He carries is in
a very loose curl when he is excited or happy.
He has a nice moderately laid back shoulders. His pasterns are of good flexibility and
length. He has lovely compact, oval feet with
well arched toes.
He has very well-muscled long second
thighs with fairly well let down hocks. Both
his front and rear are “straight” when stopping (not turning in or out).
Bengi has an exceptionally short, fine
coat with very pliant skin. His color is not
considered standard, as it is more of a sable
with white feet, chest and tail tip.
He has a moderate gait, not reaching or
driving more than expected for his shoulder
and rear angulation. His rear movement is a
little close when converging.
While I would like to see one of the more
common colors on Bengi, overall he has a
number of attributes that could contribute
to the Basenji gene pool. I believe that his
attributes outweigh any faults that he has in
regard to the AKC standard.

ll breed standards endeavor to divide up the various
parts of the dog to explain each in detail and to describe the
whole that makes up the unique breed. When studying the
individual pieces of a dog, one must keep in mind that the connection
between all the parts and their relationship to the functions of the
animal are what make up the whole dog.
The Basenji Standard is meant to describe an ideal Basenji. Nature
doesn’t fully cooperate with dog breeders so each dog has its good and
not so good features. It is the job of the judges and breeders to make
decisions about the overall quality of each dog. It is an essential aspect
of a successful breeder to select those dogs for breeding that complement each other in their best points and improve each other in their
lesser features. The more a breeder understands the Standard and the
more unbiased their view of dogs’ virtues and weaknesses, the closer
the breeder will come to producing ideal Basenjis.
The Standard Dissected goes through the Standard sentence by
sentence discussing what it all means. Visit The Standard Dissected at

Articles & Other Material
BCOA members are encouraged to send to the Editor anything they feel will be of
interest. All materials, whether used or not, will be treated with consideration. Articles,
letters or advertisements attacking or slandering individuals or organizations can easily
be misconstrued as official Club Policy and are therefore not appropriate for printing.

CHANGE OF ADDRESS NOTICE
IF YOU MOVE, please notify the BCOA Treasurer of your new address. Unless specifically requested, the USPS will not forward periodicals, such as the Bulletin, to your new
address. Send all address changes to the Editor. It is suggested to send address changes
also to the Bulletin Board Newsletter Editor, the Secretary & Treasurer to ensure the Club
knows where you are in case of a move.
To avoid missing your magazines, you must inform the Club of your address change.
If we do not receive a Change of Address notice, the cost of a replacement issue is $9.00.
The USPS charges $ .75 for each incorrect mailing address, returns only the cover with
a label affixed showing the new address, and destroys the remainder of the magazine.
However, in the course of any mailing, if the USPS damages your magazine beyond use,
you may receive a replacement copy at no charge.

*With submission of marked catalogue or electronic file
Submission of advertising layouts before the appropriate deadline is the responsibility
of the advertiser. If the Bulletin is providing design and layout services, there is a limit
of four photos per page unless otherwise negotiated. All fees must accompany submissions or paid online at the BCOA website. The costs may fluctuate due to an advertiser’s
request or suitability of material submitted. If an initial payment is insufficient to cover
the final cost, you are responsible for and expected to pay any additional balance due.
Additional funds required are due upon notification of such by the BULLETIN. Please
consult the fee list to determine final cost, or contact the BULLETIN prior to publication
if there is any question concerning payment for display or commercial advertising. The
BULLETIN is required to have a commitment from all advertisers, insuring that they
know they are responsible for payment of the full cost of their ads as published, based
on the prices stated in the BULLETIN, when ads are prearranged before any actual work
on the ad commences.
All funds to be paid in U.S. currency, please. Make checks payable to BCOA. All copy
and photos should be sent to the Editor, along with any necessary payment and return
postage arrangements. Slides and color photocopies cannot be used. Electronic files
may be sent via internet - Digital images MUST be 300 dpi and in higher quality .jpg
or .tif format. Identify all people and animals in your photo. Send a rough idea of your
desired layout and mark all photographs with name and return address. Photographs
may be enlarged, reduced or cropped within reason; please specify preferences.
Camera-ready ads must be approved by the Editor. All photographs will be returned.
Reservations for placements can be made by contacting:

Bruno sends a shout out to his littermate
H
Ella
Ch Kivu Ella Minnow Pea
and her owner-handler
Donna Santangelo!
Ella is Donna’s first Basenji and her first show dog.
With the exception of Ella’s first point, won at her very
first show, Donna has handled Ella to all of her wins,
including Breed wins over specials. Ella completed
her championship the same weekend as Bruno, in the
city of her birth, Springfield, MA where Donna and her
husband Phil first met her at 8 weeks old.
Ella and Donna are a beautiful team
and we are very proud of them!
