Without the strong protections the AKC provides, our basenjis would be far more vulnerable to the lobbies that actively undermine community support for informed pet policies in every part of the country. We may be critical of this or that AKC policy and we may wish the AKC would act more assertively against opponents who attempt to legislate against our interests, but we can and should affirm the considerable protections our AKC relationship provides. Y ou can be sure your support of our officers and directors and the many hours of hard work so many of you have contributed and continue to give to the mission of our club - the advancement of our beloved basenjis - is deeply appreciated. The duties and responsibilities of our elected leaders are many and diverse. It is a measure of the vigor and strength of our organization that so many of our members have stepped forward to serve in these very demanding but entirely volunteer positions. I salute them all, each and every one and I encourage you to support them with your vote and whatever time you can give to our common effort. We can be entirely confident that the same energy and enthusiasm will be invested in the new officers and board we are now in the process of electing to serve in 2012. We can all be proud of the fresh resources that new leadership brings to the table. The value added by drawing on different perspectives and the new attention given to the variety of issues the club addresses through the year offers real depth and richer substance to the club’s achievements. The BCOA like all parent clubs exists in an AKC world. Our structure as a club, our constitution and by-laws, our mission as an organization and our breed standard all derive from our existence within the American Kennel Club, the club of clubs. There are enormous advantages for us in this arrangement. The AKC is a large and powerful alliance of many breeds united in defense of our common interests. It is a bulwark against the forces of indifference and ignorance that plague our society’s relationship with dogs and it is an unmatched voice for sound edu- Yes, the AKC defines our shape and, to some considerable degree, our limits but make no mistake: the AKC is an enormous plus for our club. It frees our members to focus our energies on our basenji community. It frees us – or should free us – from the fears which can paralyze more vulnerable organizations. We are about to embark on our annual national specialty. This year’s national is in Manitowoc, Wisconsin during September 20-25. It promises to be an exciting, fun-filled week of activities. There are few areas in the country with a larger or more active and experienced community of basenji enthusiasts. Attendees can expect to enjoy the fruits of their many labors and the unmatched pleasures of their Midwestern hospitality. I envy all of you who are able to be there. I cannot attend this year. Responsibilities at home in Massachusetts require me to participate by email and phone. Thank goodness for electronic media! I will only be as far away as my phone and computer. I will be available to anyone who wants to call me or send me an email. In the meantime, have a safe trip and a great national specialty. It isn’t too soon to mention that the BCOA 2012 National Specialty is only nine months from now, in early July in Pennsylvania. Start making your plans now. Few of us have been immune to the pressures of the economic downturn of recent years. Fewer dog shows, smaller entries, Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) 3 Pamela Geoffroy, President and increased travel costs are just the tip of the iceberg for many of us. It has become more and more difficult for middle class breeders and fanciers to afford participation. We do what we can and certainly working together with others helps, but the fact remains that the economy has not been good for the fancy, and it does not look like that will change anytime soon. Despite these daunting economic headwinds, the BCOA has been able to advance its opportunities and achievements in several “We are about to embark on our annual national specialty in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. There are few areas in the country with a larger or more active and experienced community of basenji enthusiasts.“ important areas. With the active cooperation of our members and the AKC, our Basenji studbook has been opened to African imports greatly enhancing opportunities for breeders and fanciers to strengthen the health and future of this ancient and natural breed. We are indebted to those among us who have traveled to Africa at their own considerable expense to find and bring back these wonderful enrichments to our stock. The BCOA’s Basenji University is opened, growing and flourishing. Visitors are flocking to it in surprising numbers. Its many learning opportunities are attracting interest from other purebred clubs as well as our own members and visitors researching Basenjis. The Basenji University has added greatly to our club’s reputation. We can be justly proud of the goodwill this project has brought us. We are especially proud of our expanding online archives which record so much of our club’s decades of growth and development. Do yourself a favor and check them out. They will likely surprise you and give you fresh insight into both our past and the opportunities in front of us. Finally, please give a thought to our Basenji Health Foundation. Your contributions can make a huge difference just as they have in the past. We continue to face a variety of challenges to the good health of our Basenjis. Your dollars are crucial to their future. Please give what you can. Thank you! Pamela Geoffroy www.basenji.org LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To The Editor, cc: to Officers & Board n the President’s Message it says under In public relations, the board provides: * Explanations and interpretations as needed. I don’t know where else to ask so I am hoping you (BOD) can answer my questions. 1. From the time the Fanconi Marker Testing began until recently there were four results given, Probably Clear, Probably Carrier, Probably Affected & Indeterminate. Recently I am seeing results listed as Probably Normal. What is the difference between Probably Clear and Probably Normal? Does it have anything to do with the recent information that some basenjis that tested Probably Clear actually have one mutated gene at one of the three markers? Originally we were told that Probably Clear was when no mutant genes were at any of the markers, when did this change? Why was this information not made available to the membership? There has not been anything in the Bulletin or the Bulletin Board or on the Announce List. Is this a big secret? 2. Why has the following test result been over looked? This is the worst possible result one could get. Both the parents (that were permanently identified) tested as ‘Probably Clear’ but produced a son, Marlen Brao Zhan Lui, who tested as ‘Probably Affected’. Check it out for yourselves on the OFA site. Shouldn’t this be looked into? 3. In the MY Point of View article it reads, “When members of the BCOA were alerted via the rumor mill of a potential issue regarding the DNA fanconi testing, the BCOA board, along with the co-chairs of the Health and I Photo by: Melody Henkel Research committee, worked hard to address member concerns in a timely fashion by usage of the BCOA Announce e-mail.” The only Announce e-mail that I received gave promises, promises but no real answers. If there was one after that I did not get it; could you please send the one with the answers to me again? 4. Where are the Stud Dog & Brood Bitch Honor Rolls that were always in the 2nd Quarter Bulletin? Thank you for your time and consideration. Mary Lou Kenworthy A GREAT HOUND SHOW WEEKEND!!

Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT '11) 4 For More Information on Gcbc Contact: Susan Joyner, Show Chairman (815) 485-8592 [email protected] *Pending AKC Approval www.basenji.org •• letters to the editor 2011 SPECIALTIES & BCOA supported entries From the Editor (and Board of Directors): 1. Answer: The results, as reported through the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals since the test was first offered for use by Basenji breeders in 2007, are: PROBABLY CLEAR/NORMAL FOR FANCONI SYNDROME, PROBABLY CARRIER OF FANCONI SYNDROME, PROBABLY AFFECTED WITH FANCONI SYNDROME and INDETERMINATE BETWEEN NORMAL AND CARRIER. There is no difference between Probably Clear and Probably Normal. The Linkage Marker test is based on Dr. Johnson’s interpretation of a pattern of markers that he has determined are linked to the still elusive Fanconi gene. In March 2011, the HRC asked Dr. Johnson if there had been a change, and he confirmed that there has been no change in the pattern of markers that is used to categorize dogs as Probably Affected, Probably Clear/Normal, Probably Carrier or Indeterminate. It has always been possible for a dog reported as Probably Clear/ Normal to have a mutated marker. It is unclear how the idea, that a Probably Clear/Normal pattern had to have only all normal markers, originated. Dr. Johnson is going to give a talk to the BCOA at the 2011 National Specialty in Manitowoc Wisconsin on Saturday afternoon, September 24, 2011. A summation of his talk and any new information he has to share with the BCOA will be included in the 4th Quarter Bulletin. 2. Answer: It was not overlooked; the owners did not provide sire and dam information in the proper format so the test results were not automatically connected. Once they were connected, the lab initiated a retest evaluation to confirm parentage. 3. Answer: The BCOA Announce is used as an immediate communication tool for short and/or special notices. It is not the purpose of the BCOA Announce to provide in depth responses to membership concerns; any perceived promises are those of the reader. Mid-March, 2011 members of the fancy brought their concerns regarding possible issues surrounding the Fanconi Linked Marker test to the BCOA Board of Directors and/or to the Health and Research committee (HRC). While the HRC awaited a reply from Dr. Johnson, the creator of the test, regarding a series of questions posed to him, the committee worked diligently to create the most accurate interpretation of any new information by way of a in-depth Fanconi test FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions). See basenji.org. Members inundated the HRC co-chairs with emails asking for answers. This necessitated an immediate communication to the membership via the BCOA Announce. The March BCOA Announce let the membership know the BCOA, our Board and our Health Research committee were taking their concerns seriously and were actively working towards answers which would be forthcoming via the FAQ and/or Bulletin articles. 4. Answer: The Stud Dog & Brood Bitch Honor Rolls are in the process of being completely rebuilt. We had several people point out inaccuracies in the Honor Rolls so thought it was thought to be in the BCOA’s best interest to recreate the Honor Rolls from scratch. Once completed, it will be published in the Bulletin and updated on the BCOA web site. NOTE from the Editor: Since the time the letter was received and the response was drafted, the Honor Rolls have been completed. They are published in this issue of the BULLETIN.

CH Noonan and JM Kay on the prevalence and geographic distribution of Fanconi Syndrome in Basenjis in the United States.10 In their survey, 10% of all Basenjis involved in the study had Fanconi Syndrome, and half of them became affected between the ages of 4 and 8, although it has been noted in some Basenjis as young as 1 1/2 to 2 years and as old as 16.9 In 1988, Dr. Steve Gonto devised a protocol to aid in clinical diagnosis and treatment of Fanconi Syndrome in Basenjis, n 1936, Mrs. Olivia Burn successfully imported the first Basenjis from Africa, Bongo, Bokoto and Bereke of Blean. These Basenjis were the initial foundation stock for the breed in the Western world. Coincidentally that same year, the Swiss pediatrician Dr. Guido Fanconi published a comprehensive description of renal tubular dysfunction, one of several syndromes now linked with his name.1 A syndrome is a group of signs and/or symptoms of which there may be many different underlying causes. Fanconi Syndrome can be characterized as primary (idiopathic) or secondary (acquired). Both types may occur at varying ages, presenting sporadically across generations within families, or clustered in time, geographic locations or family groups. Even though Dr. Fanconi suggested in 1936 that there may be an inherited cause of renal tubular dysfunction, it was another 70 years before a genetic basis for three known variants of inherited Fanconi Syndrome in humans, two autosomal dominant and one autosomal recessive, were characterized on a molecular genetic level.6,11 In 1976, Drs. Easley and Breitschwerdt published the first description of Fanconi Syndrome in Ba- Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) 8 www.basenji.org The Nephron (drawing by Linda Daves Siekert, CVT) which has gone through several revisions.13 A completely revised protocol is currently in the works. (personal communication from Dr. Gonto, July 2011) Over the past 75 years, studying the various renal Fanconi Syndromes has been challenging for many reasons, including the relative rarity of the inherited forms and the evolution of diagnostic and research techniques. Despite all the work done to date, a molecular pathogenesis of the primary proximal tubular damage is still unknown in many of the syndrome variants, in Basenjis as well as humans.2,5,6,7,8,9 It is important to understand the defects in both humans and dogs to help with treatment options, and a fundamental understanding of genetic principles may help avoid propagating the inherited forms in dogs.16,17,18 Although Gregor Mendel first described hereditary factors as discrete entities in 1866, his work was not widely known until 1900. Indeed, up until 1953 when James Watson and Francis Crick utilized the work of Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins to deduce the double-helix structure of DNA, genetic studies focused on how traits are inherited using observed results of specific breedings, i.e. phenotypes, and classic pedigree analysis. Chromosomes were first discovered in the late nineteenth century; the correct count of human chromosomes, 46 with 22 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes was determined in 1956 and the Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) correct count of 78 chromosomes in the dog with 38 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes was confirmed in 1964.19 By analyzing patterns of inheritance, geneticists can localize genes to specific chromosomes, and more detailed analysis can localize genes to specific positions within chromosomes, i.e. chromosome mapping. The discovery of DNA structure has allowed the molecular study of replication, expression and mutation of genes. A gene’s internal components, the coding sequences, regulatory sequences and noncoding sequences can be identified, and even the nature of the gene product (transport proteins, enzymes, structural components, regulatory functions, DNA replication, RNA metabolism, transcription and more) can be predicted, although many genes encode proteins of unknown function.18 In October 2004, a nearly complete sequence of the human genome comprising 99 percent of the nonrepetitive DNA was released, and in 2004, the first draft of the dog genome sequence (a boxer named Tasha) was made available in public databases.20 In 1997-1998, Dr. Gary S. Johnson DVM PhD, of the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Veterinary Pathobiology in Columbia, MO (AKC Canine Health Foundation grant #1445) ruled out two candidate genes for Basenji Fanconi Syndrome. In 2003, he proposed a molecular genetic study of Fanconi Syndrome in Basenjis (AKC Canine Health Foundation grant #2462) with a long term goal of identifying the mutation responsible for Fanconi Syndrome in Basenjis and to use this information to design a DNA-based test that would identify carriers of Fanconi A few of the proximal tubule cell functions (drawing by Linda Daves Siekert, CVT) 9 www.basenji.org Dr. Gary Johnson will be at the 2011 BCOA National Specialty in Manitowoc, Wisconsin on Saturday, September 24th, and will discuss his current research. He strongly encourages everyone who can be there to come with their questions ready. He will provide a short summary of his talk for those people who will not be able to attend. Syndrome. Linkage analysis, based on both pedigree analysis and modern molecular methods, was used to evaluate candidate gene regions. Difficulties were encountered since there appeared to be a family of homologous genes and perhaps pseudogenes (sequences that look like another gene but do not create a functional product) in the work done through 2004-2005. The subsequent AKC CHF grant 801-A, “Characterization of the Mutation Responsible for Fanconi Syndrome in Basenjis”, targeted a segment of canine chromosome 3 that represents less than 2 percent of a dog’s DNA, or around 200 genes. This research formed the basis of the linked marker test that was made available to Basenji breeders in July 2007, prior to the autumn breeding season.21 The linked marker test is based on the three most informative of the six consecutive microsatellite markers that defined the Fanconi Syndrome haplotype; a haplotype is a set of alleles of closely linked loci on a chromosome that tend to be inherited together. Nonetheless, linked marker tests are not perfect, and Dr. Johnson continues his quest to identify the genetic mutation responsible for Basenji Fanconi Syndrome. Interesting unanswered questions include, but are certainly not limited to, When did the genetic mutation for Basenji Fanconi Syndrome first develop? Millennia ago in Africa when Basenjis diverged from other canines? Or did it occur much more recently, in the foundation stock imported in the 1930s or later? Is it currently present in Africa, and if so, in which populations of Basenjis from which areas? Why is the age of presentation so variable? Once the causative gene is identified, we may be able to answer some of these questions, but undoubtedly even more questions will be raised. Basenji Club of America, Inc.

Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) 13 www.basenji.org • It’s official. Janet, Lou and “Cash” Ketz now have their own “BRAT”- Violet aka Videl. She is an eight year-old red and white girl and Cash, our five year-old boy, loves her most of the time! Our “BRAT” By Janet Ketz Violet V Violet & Cash iolet. She came from BRAT-Basenji Rescue and Transportation, Inc.The BRAT mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home dogs of the basenji breed. Founded in 1999, they are a tax-exempt, all-volunteer organization, recognized by the IRS as a tax-exempt charitable corporation. BRAT rescues basenjis from shelters, abusive situations and relinquishing owners. They provide routine and advanced veterinary care for these dogs and insure that they have been spayed/neutered and appropriately immunized before placement. Most dogs spend some time in foster care before finding their new homes. Folks looking to adopt can fill out an on-line application to start the process, followed by a home visit from an evaluator. Once a dog is placed, Brat will assist new owners with any issues that come up throughout the dog’s lifetime. In that respect, I think, fosters and breeders seem to be cut from the same cloth; both offer the dog the best possible starting point, select just the right home and assist with that dog for life. I admire and am grateful to both groups for their dedication to the basenji! BRAT has 800-plus volunteers in the United States and Canada, the organization is funded primarily through tax-deductible donations and adoption fees. They are always looking for new volunteers and welcome the assistance of all current and former basenji owners and breeders. Let me mention their Leadership Team here: Officers Violet & Cash Elizabeth Newton, President, Illinois Roberta Kosek, Vice-President, New Hampshire Debra Johnson, Treasurer, Tennessee B.

Yes, I had to make the trip. BOARD OF DIRECTORS Debra Johnson, Tennessee Roberta Kosek, New Hampshire Jackie Kuhwarth, California Chey Miller, New York Elizabeth Newton, Illinois BRAT is now known worldwide as a result of the Wimauma Pack and the internet. After a hoarder, in Florida, was found to have five acres, complete with cows and a pack of basenjis that was growing in numbers without much human interaction, BRAT came to the rescue. All total, including pups born during the process, there were a total of over 50 Wimauma dogs. I understand that only three or four are still looking for that perfect home. I must also mention that BCOA donated to the rescue fund for these dogs. I am very proud of that rescue assistance that BCOA was able to provide to BRAT. I hope we will continue to help BRAT and basenjis in need of a helping hand in the future. The Wimauma Pack is a great success story and a wonderful effort by all. BRAT’s Annual Convention BRAT holds an annual convention, this year it just happened to be in held in June, in the Chicago, IL area, the very week that our “BRAT”, Violet, came to live with us. I live just south of Chicago. Yes, I had to make the trip. I am so glad I did. I ran in to some old friends and made some new ones. There were seminars, acupuncture/holistic medicine, Fanconi care, performance event demos, an auction, raffles, food, fun and dogs. I especially enjoyed meeting those Wimauma dogs, but of course I loved all the rescue dogs that were there! Two of our BCOA members, from Chicago, Nicole and Rob Freedman are also BRAT members. They both sent a note on events at the three-day Convention. Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) Nicole worked on the planning crew and she reports: I was given the honor of helping plan the BRAT convention in Chicago for 2011. I invited Jo Thompson to talk about her experiences in the Congo and Basenji history, and Lisa Marshall and Susan Cook to talk about basenji activities. Both presentations went exceedingly well. Lisa Marshall brought Miranda, and Susan Cook brought Arrow, and they demonstrated some beginning agility training and presented on Rally, Lure Coursing, LGRA, and NOTRA. After the presentations on Friday, there was a picnic. Susan Cook and Arrow joined us for the picnic. At the picnic, there were a series of fun contests including: • Most Wrinkles - Peggy; • Youngest Attending - Corin; • Best Tail Wagger - Corin; • Longest Sit-Stay - Arrow and • Best Trick - Arrow. • Arrow was also the top scoring dog for the night, which won him a doggy T-shirt. On Saturday afternoon, an excursion to tour Chicago’s Loop was led by Chicago resident, Rob Freedman. Rob has shared highlights of that afternoon: The tour took advantage of Chicago’s “L” train that runs from the convention site to the Loop. The tour visited the original Billy Goat Tavern, of “Saturday Night Live” skit fame, for lunch before heading off to explore the parks and architectural landmarks in the downtown area. We toured by the new Trump International Hotel and Tower which contrasts wonderfully next to the historic Wrigley and Tribune buildings. On the way to Millennium Park, we ran into an impromptu Zombie Pirate Flash Mob, providing for a unique photo op. The tour finished off at the Cloud Gate, nicknamed “The Bean”, where visitors are treated to an optical illusion as they pass underneath. Tour participants had a great time seeing some of the sights and we returned just in time for the annual awards banquet. Nicole and Rob, thanks for sharing the Convention adventures with us. Thanks to BRAT for bringing Violet into our lives! Welcome Home, Violet! • 15 www.basenji.org Regular Classes • JUDGE: Mrs. Patricia A.

Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) 17 www.basenji.org Basenji(s) in Need of Help... Who you gonna call? Joy & Goldie Lauffenburger. Photo contributed by Melinda Lauffenburger. by Dr. Jo Thompson, Lukuru Earlier this year I was privileged to receive an invitation to speak at the 9th Annual Convention of Basenji Rescue & Transport, Inc. (known affectionately as BRAT). The mission of BRAT is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home Basenjis in need. Founded in 1999, BRAT is an all-volunteer organization. BRAT rescues basenjis from shelters, abusive situations and relinquishing own- Narehoods have fostered, done home visits, helped with distance transporting, evaluated dogs and continue to be dedicated to the well-being of each Basenji they encounter. Stari is not a BRAT girl but she is a little beauty who needed a special chance and extraordinary people. Stari was born in an ‘oops litter’ of six (5 females, 1 male); she was the only pup in that litter that scored as “Probably Affected” for Fanconi Syndrome when their breeder tested them at 7 ers. Previously, my exposure to BRAT had been fairly limited... some exchanges about potential puppy people and interest in the 2010 Wimauma Basenji seizure. So, it was with some shyness that I accepted and planned to participate. Wow, am I glad I did! T he amazing stories and experiences began to unfold the minute we arrived. As my niece and I were checking in at the front desk, the lobby and neighboring rooms were bustling with activity and many Basenjis. Standing nearby was an affable, well-informed and easy-going couple with their four Basenjis. On the end of one lead was a particularly stunning little brindle girl; a real “looker” by all accounts. We were immediately drawn to her and their welcoming chatter. Stari (from the Swahili word “mstari” meaning line/stripe) is owned by Barb and Dennis Narehood. The Narehoods have been BCOA members since 1994 and were involved with the All Breed Rescue Alliance prior to the founding of BRAT. They have lived with Basenjis for nearing 30 years and, like all the BRAT people we met, epitomize the practice of giving Basenjis in need a chance to start over. As BRAT volunteers, the Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) Stari today at 13 months old. Photo contributed by Barb Narehood 18 www.basenji.org weeks old. The Narehoods were offered a puppy and given ‘pick of the litter.’ When they went to make their selection, as so often happens, Stari picked them. She cuddled up in Dennis’ lap and they simply fell in love with her pretty face. They were undaunted by her Fanconi status. In 2003, the Narehoods accepted Gypsy as their 93rd foster through BRAT. She had Fanconi Syndrome. After more than a year of special care and health maintenance on the Gonto Protocol, the Narehoods made it official and permanently adopted Gypsy. They learned a lot from her and gave her a great quality of life for six good years. Gypsy’s legacy helped Barb and Dennis be prepared for the special needs they anticipate for Stari. They are the kind of people that volunteer for BRAT. The Convention was very well organized and provided multiple opportunities to meet and greet people and Basenjis. For us, that continued with the first evening gettogether where I met some of the people who I had already grown to respect but only known via electronic communications. We all gathered in a hospitality room and got to know each other. It was a special pleasure to meet B. Ann Hageman, Debbi Johnson, Liz Newton and the many others who were so kind and welcomed us to the BRAT family. During that first evening of the Convention, it was a highlight to meet Pam Hamilton and a couple of the Wimauma Basenjis. Pam got her first Basenji from BRAT and started fostering as an experiment to see what it would be like to have two. Ah, the allure of the Basenji breed shortly lead Pam to welcome more into her home. Last year, Pam and her family were instrumental in the fostering of the Wimauma Basenjis and made history in our breed. She generously gave her time for us to have a personal audience with the extraordinary Wimauma Basenjis. Pam and her dogs were absolutely amazing. Under the care and support of Pam, these dogs have become incredible good-citizens and ambassadors for the breed. While enjoying their company, we were treated to an authentic, Chicago-style, ultimate, stuffed pizza pie (Thank you, Rob and Nicole!) from Giordano’s Pizza; the world’s most famous stuffed pizza and well deserved of that recognition.

Goldie is an amazing example of one of the many ways dogs serve humankind. With Goldie, the Lauffenburg- Joy, an 18-year-old ‘Advanced Placement’ high school senior is autistic.

My dogs are not as well behaved! The program launched with an inspirational presentation. As a family, Dean, Melinda, Joy, Sarah and Goldie Lauffenburger shared their story of “The Miracle Basenji.” Joy, an 18-year-old ‘Advanced Placement’ high school senior is autistic.

The Chicago Tribune ran an article about Joy and Goldie’s presentation at the BRAT Convention (chicagotribune. com/features/tribu/ct-tribu-autism-dog- ers have become wonderful educators about the Basenji breed. When I was invited to speak, I was asked specifically to talk about Basenji origins, the Lukuru Basenji native import effort and being a pure-bred Basenji. The audience was warmly responsive and we had a great interaction. Reinforcing my slide presentation, Peggy (one of our full African, F1 generation Lukuru puppies) provided a hands-on model to illustrate some of my talking points. The camera flashes were reminiscent of paparazzi when Peggy took the stage. During the subsequent break, Peggy got passed around from embracing arms to embracing arms of people who just wanted to hold her. She loved it! Thank you Peggy! I’m so proud of you. Although we were not present, the Convention ended with a drawing where a wide array of Basenji items were raffled off. 19 www.basenji.org mid Atlantic basenji club The Basenji Underground Railroad (BUR) helps to relocate Basenjis that have been given up and is recognized by their coordinated efforts to transport the dog(s) relay-style. The culminating high point was the live auction, which was an exciting bidding process for the big prize of the wall-hanging tapestry “African Hunters”, featuring the artwork of award-winning wildlife artist, Roger Kibbee. Mr. Kibbee created the image in 1997 based on his Basenjis and iconic African animals. This tapestry was from the estate of Mary Wilson, donated by her daughter Shannon Wilson. Sadly, Mary passed away in February this year. She was one of the original members of the Basenji Underground Railroad in 1997 and served BRAT for many years. The BUR helps to relocate Basenjis that have been given up and is recognized by their coordinated efforts to transport the dog(s) relay-style. This magnificent piece of textile art now resides with me where it will be cherished not only for its beauty but for the memory of the BRAT Convention that it represents to me. Even though we were only able to attend a small part of the 3-days events, these are but a few of the many poignant and meaningful impressions and remarkable people that remain fresh in the memories of my first BRAT Convention. Of the countless things that make this breed so exceptional, one is definitely the people who serve and protect each individual Basenji. The people of BRAT have my greatest admiration and respect. I know who I’m going to call if I ever hear of a Basenji in need of help...

Evelyn In the world of collegiate and professional athletics there is a saying we use all of the time. That saying is “you are always a student of the game.” Along that same line of thinking, one of my mentors told me that “no one has a corner on knowledge.” Mmmmm, this is something to really think about. I find it disheartening, that in the dog show game, this is not being said enough to novices. What are these words really saying? “Student of the game”, and “no one has a corner on knowledge” is telling us basically the same thing. No matter how many years you are involved in any activity, you can and will always learn something new.There is always something that you have not experienced, don’t know, never thought about that will present itself. The time I have spent involved in dogs is miniscule in comparison to some of the great dog show people out there. I know you don’t have privy to the judges list but all too often it reads like an obituary. We are loosing the great ones, who took up the torch from those before them, and with them goes the knowledge. I find myself in the position of being the next generation responsible for the breed’s well being. I truly love to teach and help others but when I watch the novices in the game, I turn my head and question if I should go out on the limb, AGAIN. When I first got into this game, I realized that there was a lot to learn from two different aspects. Those aspects were as a breeder and a handler. So where do I start? Since I am very competitive, of course I wanted to get into that ring and compete. It didn’t seem difficult; I was an athlete and many of the physical principles seem to be the same. However, instead of a ball, there was a living, breathing, thinking animal involved. Mmmmmmmm. Balls don’t think; this could be a problem. So, I decided it would be best to learn the game from the rules standpoint first. I ring stewarded, watched, learned so that I could mark a catalog properly and ask intelligent questions. I only did a few shows and then jumped into the big league by ring stewarding at American Spaniel Club. I told the chief ring steward that I had little Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) Olga Evelyn pictured with her Basenji Am. Ch. Akuaba’s Streaker experience and she worked with me. Ahhhh, a feeling of accomplishment and the patience paid off. A little more than a year had passed. Like most newcomers, I had bought my first “showdog” and made all the newbie mistakes. Disappointed but still recognizing that my “showdog” was a pet, I sold her. Now, I was on a mission to find a real “showdog”, 6 months or older. Little did I know, that at a match, I would meet my soon to be mentor and her husband. I approached a very distinguished gentleman sitting at the far corner of the ring, struck up a conversation, (neither of us were shy) and cried the blues to him about wanting to find a real show dog. Fate was in my favor; he and his wife were considering placing a champion bitch but he didn’t reveal that bit of information at that time. This gentleman was John Stuart and his wife, Barbara. John introduced me to Barbara and we talked. I did most of the talking and Barbara just listened. I told her my 22 www.basenji.org “Be patient. Rome was not built in a day. Trust me, patience is not one of my virtues because I have always been successful based on natural athletic ability. This concept does not exist in dogs! Pick the brains of some of the great breeders. If you don’t see them around the ring, find them and give them a call. I’m sure they would love to share their knowledge. If you have a dog, research that pedigree. Find out what was great and not so great about dogs in that pedigree.” hopes, dreams and my plans. The rest is history. Barbara’s gut was telling her I was worth the gamble. She gave me Ch. Silverhall Shadowdance who became my black foundation bitch under her guidance. A few years later, she gave me Kimbar’s Dance Performance (her breeding), that I showed, finished and became my stud. Till this day, I still consult with Barbara on all my breedings. I say all this to say that I don’t see novices really interested in bettering the breed. Many are more concerned with instant winning, breeding to the top dog, getting into the ring, ready or not, and just being all knowing. I have many questions for the all-knowing(s): Do you have these answers from first-hand experiences? How many litters have you bred? Do you really know pedigrees? Do you know lines from 10, 15 years ago? Do you ask these questions and who do you consult to get this information? I could go on and on. There are plenty of experienced breeders out there, who just sit back watch, listen and rarely interject. Like myself, the experienced breeders are turned off by the novices because they are not asking for help.They know it all. So now where does that leave me? I am still and will always be a student of the game and I don’t have a corner on knowledge. However, I am willing to share my knowledge and experiences if it will help the breed and help someone successfully progress in this sport. Since I am the next generation responsible to protect the breed, allow me to offer my two cents: First and foremost, decide what you want to do--be in this game. Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) Breeder, owner, handler, collector, backer. If you want to be a breeder, owner, handler or combination then prepare yourself for work and lots of it coupled with patience because “it ain’t happening overnight”. I don’t care how many instant wins you get. If you want to be a collector, then buy the best dogs you can find, send them to a handler, sit back and enjoy. If it’s all about winning and/or having your name associated with a winner, then become a backer. Being a backer is a safe vice that won’t destroy your health. However, if you choose one or a combination of the first three options, get a mentor! This option has a direct effect on the breed and its future. Be patient. Rome was not built in a day. Trust me, patience is not one of my virtues because I have always been successful based on natural athletic ability. This concept does not exist in dogs! Pick the brains of some of the great breeders. If you don’t see them around the ring, find them and give them a call. I’m sure they would love to share their knowledge. If you have a dog, research that pedigree. Find out what was great and not so great about dogs in that pedigree. The future of our breed is now. You can make a positive contribution to its betterment through education. Remember, as long as you are involved in this game (or any game), you will always be a STUDENT OF THE GAME and you will NEVER HAVE A CORNER ON KNOWLEDGE. In July, 2005, this article ran in the Leader and the Chronicle. Six years later, the two main phrases are more relevant than before. Personally, some things have changed: I no longer breed or show my stud dog, he has passed away. Now, I am judging and seeing the game from a totally different perspective. Too many things have not changed. We are still losing real dog people, and valuable knowledge. With the internet in full swing, there is a more and adamant “know it all” attitude. A few wins now crowns the exhibitor with entitlement so that when they lose they can proclaim, “I got dumped”. I hate that word. If this is indeed a sport, you lost! No one is listening and learning which I believe is affecting our breed negatively. Blame is being placed everywhere, but it should be on the breeder. There would be no dog shows without us, the breeder. We are responsible for what is in the ring and the dogs the judge has to judge. At one time, words like finishable (also known as mediocre), sit on it (give it time to grow and develop), and worthy (a better than average representation of the breed), were part of the vocabulary. Do you hear these words anymore? To newcomers, have you ever heard these words? Those words are rarely used because we know that a litter sired by Top Dog #1, all the puppies are ringworthy at eight weeks. How about this? My dog got three majors and a CH. which makes it a special. Disregard the fact, that in all three majors, it was the only dog and received cross overpoints by beating the winners. So, I end this article with the exact same words I used six years ago. The future of our breed is now. You can make a positive contribution to its betterment through education. Remember, as long as you are involved in this game (or any game), you will always be a STUDENT OF THE GAME and you will NEVER HAVE A CORNER ON KNOWLEDGE. Olga K. Evelyn - Updated 1/16/11 Amunique Cockers, Azande Basenjis and AKC Judge 23 www.basenji.org Photos by Bev Reid In Search of Native Basenjis An Expedition to the Democratic Republic of the Congo - February 2011 By Bev Reid Introduction he planning, for my involvement in the 2011 trip into the Democratic Republic of the Congo, started with a conversation in Dallas in 2008 with Jon Curby, Tonda Curry and Mike Work. All had been involved in previous trips into DRC in search of native Basenjis to export to the USA to enlarge the gene pool.We were to depart in February 2010 but the rebel activity deemed the trip too dangerous. In November, I received word from Jon that the area into which we were to travel had quieted down and that our trip was in the planning for departure in February 2011. T Initially this trip, for me, was all about Basenjis. Our meeting point was Entebbe, Uganda from where we would fly into Dungu via Bunia (where we were to obtain our DRC visas). It was also at Bunia that I first knew of the very real existence of the L.R.A. (“Lord’s” Resistance Army). Turning through the gates at the Mission in Dungu, the first dogs we saw were the red camp dogs (Basenjis). The Mission is run by Sister Cathleen, a Dominican nun, and was built during the Belgians time in the Congo.There had been a hydro electric scheme on the Ule River but it had long Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) ago fallen into disrepair along with the water reticulation piping. A diesel generator provided power for a few hours in the evening and water was carted from the river in 200 litre drums. There was no refrigeration for food. Rice, bananas and pineapple became my staples along with bread rolls, baked daily, and scrambled egg for breakfast. Katie Campbell’s cooking skills and also her command of French proved invaluable. On the first afternoon, we drove out to acquaint ourselves with the “lay of the land“. I saw a brindle bitch that set the benchmark for all other dogs I was to see. Unfortunately, she had 4 very young lovely puppies. Even though she had puppies, she welcomed us. The temperament of the majority of dogs was friendly. If the family welcomed us, so did the dogs. News travels fast and that evening a young boy brought to the Mission some puppies. Over the next week, we drove out each day taking snacks for lunch and plenty of water. The roads were unmaintained with large smelly mud holes that would swallow our four-wheel drives if they slipped into them. There has been no road works since 1977 when the Belgians left. 24 www.basenji.org Order the 2009 BCOA African Stock Project CD “The Basenjis were extremely sound with exceptional shoulders and movement. They were slightly longer in back than Western dogs. They had dark eyes and lovely pigmentation.” As we slowly bumped along, people would appear along the side of the “road”, some with puppies or dogs they wished to sell.The local people trade their dogs among themselves and the price of a puppy is the price of a chicken.The basenjis appeared in pockets and sometimes we would travel many miles without seeing dogs. The Basenjis were extremely sound with exceptional shoulders and movement. They were slightly longer in back than Western dogs. They had dark eyes and lovely pigmentation. We saw all 4 colours. Their wrinkle was adequate when alert, but like our dogs, tended to drop their ears when bored.Very few dogs were in poor condition but fleas were rife on the pups. Every morning, the drums would sound at 6 a.m.and again at 6.15 a.m. to alert the people of a new day. An alarm clock was not needed. On Sunday morning at 6.30 a.m., Fritz, the photographer, and I walked to the church. Fritz had been given permission from the Priest to photograph the congregation. The church was a large, basic cement brick building and was filled to capacity, with people standing in the aisles and even outside, all in their Sunday best. Their singing was beautiful. The service was in French, as that is their spoken language. Fritz later asked the Priest if the choir had practice. He said, “ No”, but to leave it to him. On the Wednesday afternoon, prior to leaving on Thursday, the Priest arranged for the choir to practice at the church. The church was a quarter full with people of all ages. Children carrying their hoes came from the fields to sing for us. It was an extremely humbling experience. As I said at the beginning this trip was about Basenjis but it was much more. It was life changing… Basenji Club of America, Inc.

Top Stud Dog, with 123 Champion offspring. I n 1966, Sam McKee started tracking the breed’s top producing stud dogs and brood bitches. In 1967, he set up a system and began providing The Basenji with statistics to print as the Stud Dog and Brood Bitch Honor Rolls. Sam developed a system using 3” x 5” index cards. When a basenji was published as a champion in the monthly AKC Gazette, a card was prepared with its name and the parents’ names on the front. These cards were stored alphabetically by the name of the champion offspring. If this was the first champion offspring for either parent, an additional card was prepared for that parent. One set of cards was sorted by sire’s name and one by dam’s name. If this was an additional champion offspring for the stud dog or brood bitch, the offspring’s name was recorded on the back of the parent’s existing card. Sam’s own write-up about his system appears in the Basenji University’s Basenji Timeline at the date 1967. This card system was used well into the new millennium before anyone tried to computerize it. Sam also set the qualifications for membership in the Honor Rolls. The qualifications have remained unchanged: five conformation champion offspring for the Stud Dog Honor Roll and four conformation champion offspring for the Brood Bitch Honor Roll. Only American Kennel Club conformation titles are used for qualifications. While Sam started the Honor Rolls, the keepers have Basenji Club of America, Inc.

Top Brood Bitch with 24 Champion offspring. changed over the years with Shirley Chambers taking over from Sam then Reva Lawson, Jan Bruner and Wanda Pooley keeping the tallies in turn. For many years, the Rolls were published annually in The Basenji with Brood Bitches published in June and Stud Dogs in August. They are now published in the Bulletin annually. The annual Honor Rolls are always available at the Basenji University’s Basenji Timeline online. Recently, a number of errors were found to have crept into the Rolls over the years. As a result, a huge effort was made by Julie Jones to reconstruct the records from the first basenji champion. Julie has set up a computer system with information from records found in The Years of the American Basenji and Sally Wallis’ Online Pedigree Database as well as AKC’s titlist reports as provided to the BCOA. The Honor Rolls published here are the new, corrected version with up-to-date conformation champions provided to BCOA by the AKC through June 2011. Please let Julie ([email protected]) know if you have any questions about any dog’s tally of champion offspring. This updated version of the Honor Rolls can also be found online at the Basenji University’s Basenji Timeline at year 2011. Photos of most Honor Roll members appear there.

There will be a quiz for each section of the Owners Guide. The Basenji Timeline has new items: • The globe link to the image of Africa in Where Did Our Foundation Basenjis Come From is newly updated to include Ntomba Lokoso and Ntomba Mosika’s birthplace. • 1941: Two photos found in an old Bulletin now appear in the article: “The Story: Kindu and Kasenyi”. The photos are of Kingolo and Kasenyo offspring: Ch. Kingolo’s Kan Kan and Kingolo’s Karefree. • 1944: The first Basenji column appeared in the AKC Gazette in January. Al Phemister was the author. • 1958: A great story about Washington Cathedral’s Basenji gargoyle is now available. It is entitled “From Basenji Into Gargoyle”. Written by Basenji fan Elizabeth Kimball about how she successfully proceeded with her gargoyle design. The article is reprinted with permission from The Basenji. Permission was received from the dcMemorials to use some photos from their website to illustrate this article. • 1969: The Evergreen Basenji Club held the first local club Basenji Specialty. The August event had an entry of 69 Basenjis. • 2011: The Stud Dog and Brood Bitch Honor Rolls were started in 1966 and annually updated by hard working Basenji fans. Over the years, various errors have crept into tallies so Julie Jones has carefully gone back through the AKC records and re-tabulated the numbers. These two tallies are in this issue of the Bulletin and are also now on the Timeline. If you have dogs on these Honor Rolls, be sure to check to see that the number of champion offspring is correct and contact the University to have a link to a photo and information on your honoree. At the Basenji University’s College of Basenji Activities, there are two articles by Liza Lundell (reprinted with permission from The Basenji) added to Course 208 Additional Kim McNeill’s work on a new course on agility for Basenjis is tantalizingly close to completion. There will be useful videos and photos to demonstrate the sport of agility. The College for Basenji Breeders has a new study aid: Study Aid Course 302: Learn the Standard with Flash Cards. There are 63 flash cards with questions and answers related to the Basenji standard. The College for Basenjis Judges has two new items. The Judges Education Chairperson Marianne Klinkowski asked to have the Flash Cards on the standard here as well. It is titled: Study Aid Course 401: Learn the Standard with Flash Cards.

We are scheduled to present the seminar at the akc Advanced Hound Institute in Harrisburg, PA in August, the bcoa National Specialty in Manitowoc, WI in September, the Dog Judges Association of America seminars in Orlando, FL in December and the Oregon Dog Judges/Rose City Classic seminars in Portland, OR in January, 2012. Our sincere thanks go out to the dedicated breeders and exhibitors who have brought (and will bring) their quality basenjis to the workshops for hands-on demonstrations so that prospective judges can experience firsthand the joys of meeting and working with our lively little imps. Our bcoa mentors have worked with judges at various shows during the year and a listing of approved mentors is available to judges on the bcoa website at www.basenji.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_ contact&view=category&catid=132&Item id=461. Qualified mentors are welcome to join the program by completing the application which is available on the BCOA website. The online seminar is available for viewing at the College for Basenji Judges on the Basenji University site at www.basenji.org/ BasenjiU/niversityIndex.html and a great deal of breed history and information is available at the College for Basenji Owners and the College for Basenji Breeders at the same location. The online seminar is a work in progress and clear photographs which illustrate exceptional features of breed type or charming idiosyncrasies of breed character are always welcome. •• Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) Violet was placed with Janet & Lou Ketz Teddy is in foster care with Nicole & Rob Freedman rescue liaison report BCOA breeders and am thankful that they do whatever they can to notify breeders if their dogs are coming into rescue. Sadly, due to many unexpected life circumstances, some of our responsible breeders have been unable to fulfill their responsibility to take back their own dogs. Each breeder has his/her own unique circumstances as to why he/she are unable to presently take back his/her own dogs, so please do not misunderstand what I’m saying to be a criticism. Oftentimes, life gets in the way, and while a breeder may have had unlimited resources at the time of the breeding, unexpected obstacles such as death, financial worries, illness, housing changes, etc. can prevent a responsible breeder from being able to take back his/her dogs at a particular time. As rescue liaison, I feel obligated to share with my fellow breeders that I’m learning of several veteran dogs, 7-13 years of age, which originated from responsible breeders, but their fates are falling into the hands of other breeders and rescue groups such as BRAT. If we all do what we can when we can, hopefully these dogs that fall on hard times will always have someone willing and able to lend a hand. If your resources are adequate at this time, consider volunteering your time or home to foster, provide home visits, transport, add a rescue page to your own website or even donate funds to those groups that are picking up the pieces for us when we can’t. Please consider paying it forward now because we never know when disaster might strike at our own home and we may be desperately in need of someone else’s help. by carrie jones Due to the untimely death of Dawn Honaker Pierson, Dawn Ri Basenjis, BCOA donated funds to assist BRAT (Basenji Rescue and Transport) with rescue costs for some of Dawn’s Basenjis. At the time of initial notification, there were potentially five older Basenjis in need of re-homing. Before BRAT gained custody of these dogs, two were already homed elsewhere by Dawn’s son. BRAT took three dogs (2 bitches, 1 dog) into their care. Unfortunately, one bitch was euthanized due to extreme aggression as evidenced by multiple attempts of attacking her rescuer. It’s always difficult having to assist a dog to the Rainbow Bridge, but this girl was unsafe. The remaining bitch, Violet, was placed with Janet & Lou Ketz who already had a male Basenji and the two dogs are happy together. The dog,Teddy, was placed in foster care with Nicole & Rob Freedman and is reported to be doing well while he awaits his new forever home. Dawn’s dogs were full-time kennel dogs so these old dogs, with patience, are learning new tricks. BCOA donated directly to providers: $ 926.10 (Vet Care) + $ 92.00 (Boarding) $1018.10 (Total) As rescue liaison, I have been learning of what seems to me as an increasing number of veteran dogs being placed into rescue. I commend BRAT for working with responsible 42 www.basenji.org CLUBCOLUMNS Basenji Fanciers of Greater Phoenix By Arnieta Kurtz After much thought and discussion, the club decided to hold another independent specialty. Since there are so few all-breed shows in Arizona in general, and the Phoenix area in particular, we have to hold our specialty as a stand-alone show. In 2009, we held our show indoors. The facility was quite small, though adequate. This, however, necessitated having the entry limited. This time we are going to have it outdoors in a park. We will hope for good weather. The date is November 6, a Sunday. Puppy and Veteran Sweepstakes will be judged by Jennie Behles. The regular and non-regular class judge will be Jeraldeen Crandall. After having so few shows in this area most of the year, the fall show calendar may be quite crowded. First, there is a basenji specialty in northern California, then a basenji specialty in southern California. The following week we have our specialty here in the Phoenix area, followed by two four-day weekends of all-breed shows in Tucson, followed by another four-day weekend in Yuma.

Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) 43 www.basenji.org CLUB COLUMNS Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club club match, june 5, 2011 By jane johnson & leebeth cranmer On Sunday, June 5, the Mid-Atlantic Basenji Club held its 40th annual Fun Match. Sunny Maryland skies and mid 80’s temperature made it a perfect day for basenjis and owners alike to come out and socialize. The day started off with a Focus Clinic taught by MABC members Elizabeth Lundell and Jane Johnson. Ten teams of basenjis/owners of various ages and training levels spent over an hour learning techniques on how to work together. The leaders covered distractions and stress issues before they broke the teams into two groups. One group worked on stationary exercises while the other group worked on moving exercises—with groups switching activities midway through the clinic. The clinic taught owners positive reinforcement techniques to use with the dogs, so that the handlers learned how to get the dogs’ attention on something other than the smells on the floor without the use of the leash or harsh commands. By giving owners an understanding of what they can expect from their Basenjis and setting realistic goals, the leaders gave handlers the confidence that they really could get their Basenji to focus on walking quietly or sitting patiently. The clinic was a valuable experience for new and long-time Basenji owners. Karen Terry of Kebaroo Basenjis judged the Fun and Parts classes. There were 24 entries in the Fun classes which included best junior handler, best senior handler, best trick, rawhide relay, t-shirt races, best yodeler, best tailwagger, the popular costume class and competitive musical chairs. There were over 50 entries in the Parts classes. Parts classes included curliest tail, best whiskers, best wrinkles, best eyes, best ear set, best feet, best neck, least white and oldest. When all the points earned by each dog in the Fun and Parts classes were compiled, the Photo by Vicki Baker. Basenji Club of America, Inc. Bulletin (JUL/AUG/SEPT ‘11) Basenji with the most points was named Best Family Pet. It was a very close competition, but this year’s Best Family Pet was Trixie owned by Matt and Felicia Boyer & Karen Hutchison. By noon, the crowd took a break for a potluck lunch. It was a good time to catch up with friends and meet some of the new people who came to the match. This year many new puppy owners were in attendance. A mini raffle and flea market were held throughout the morning, and the tickets for the mini-raffle were drawn during lunch break. Over 20 different donated basenji-related items were won by lucky ticket holders. In addition to all the fun and games during the morning, the club provided a service to its members and friends by offering a microchip clinic run by Dr. Karen Miller. A total of 23 dogs were micro-chipped and given life-time enrollments in the AKC Companion Animal Recovery program for $15 each. After lunch, it was time for Parade of Champions, Rescues and Loved Ones and the Conformation Fun Match. There were 13 entries—including 3 Versatile Basenjis—in the Parade classes. Iris Craven of Kasai Basenjis came up from Richmond, VA, to judge the Conformation Fun Match. Young puppies along with older adults competed in age-appropriate classes divided by color. The youngest were seven, 3 - 6 month olds who had a chance to learn the ropes in a non-stressful ring. Spectators got a chance to see these newest show hopefuls and also see how many of the older dogs were getting along. Twelve puppies competed with Rich Terry’s Lucy taking Best Puppy in Match and Liza Lundell’s Professor taking Best of Opposite Sex to Best Puppy in Match. In the smaller adult match, Judy Brader’s Bob Marley took Best Adult in Match while Best of Opposite Sex to Best Adult in Fun Match was Judy Brader’s Gypsy. The club is already looking forward to its 41st Fun Match Day next June.

Hi-Country Basenji Club Hi-Country Basenji Club PICNIC by Pat Bird On a hot Sunday in July, some of the HCBC club members and their Basenjis gathered at a large park in Loveland, CO. Thankfully, Tina and Jeremy, our Loveland members, had reserved a covered shelter so we wouldn’t melt. The Basenjis were calm and seemed to enjoy meeting other Basenjis. Basenjis, Lady and Tramp, displayed themselves in an x-pen. Their owner, Sandra (aka Sam), told people that Tramp would be friendly and Lady reserved. And what did they do when people went to the x-pen to meet them? Just the opposite! Lady was friendly and Tramp was shy!!! One of the celebrations of the day was the adoption of Ramie, a 12 year-old tri, by Janie. We all had a fun day with good food and good company of the humans and our beloved Basenjis.

Basenji Breeder-Judge Jennie Behles joined Alice Walls to judge our event. The weather started out sunny but you can’t have a Pacific Northwest lure trial without a little rain and showers followed for the rest of the afternoon. The water falling from the sky sure didn’t keep these dogs from chasing down their ‘bunnies’. Best in Field went Bryan & Laurie Gregory’s African import Ntomba Mosika! With a total entry of 31, we had 3 Open Stakes with 5-point majors and a major in the Veteran Stake.

Greater Chicagoland Basenji Club By Arnieta Kurtz The GCBC is trying something new this year for our 37th Annual Specialty Show and Sweepstakes. Due to the lack of appropriate sites for dog shows in this area, we will not be holding an independent specialty in 2011, as we have for so many years. Instead we will be holding a Designated Specialty on Saturday, November 19, as part of the Chicagoland Hound Association Show weekend (November 19 and 20). This is instead of our usual summer specialty weekend. As part of the Chicagoland Hound Association show, we will not be able to use our own show secretary, but will be using Roy Jones Dog Shows who is the superintendent for both days. On Saturday, our Class judge will be Francine Schwartz and our Sweepstakes judge (both Puppy and Veteran) will be Dan DeWalt. Dan has been a basenji lover and owner since the 1960s. The Chicagoland Hound Association will have classes for obedience and rally, as well as junior showmanship, on both Saturday and Sunday. The Basenji judge for CHA on Sunday is Patricia Murphy. The Designated Specialty show will be held on Saturday, November 19, in Melrose Park, IL, at the For Your K9 facility. We will have great ribbons and trophies, but will be unable to have raffles or an auction. But, plan to come and have a great time with beautiful basenjis and old and new friends! Please see our ad elsewhere in this issue for more particulars. In July, GCBC members braved the hot and muggy Chicago weather for a cook-out at the Joyner residence. The cooking was done outside, but the eating was done inside in the air-conditioning. However, the food was great and so was the company. 47 www.basenji.org 2011 Basenji standings AKC Conformation AKC TopDogssm Using All-Breed Totals Starting January 1, 2011 and ending December 31, 2011 For Events Processed Through Saturday, July 2, 2011 Rank 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 14 16 17 18 19 20 Wins Name GCH CH Signet Meisterhaus Gossip Girl GCH CH Jasiri-Sukari Bucking The Trind GCH CH Reveille Push Button GCH CH Ahmahr Nahr’s Ryder Of The Voodoo Child GCH CH ‘Tis-A Arubmec’s Circle Of Life GCH CH Kazor-Jokuba’s American Treasure GCH CH Meisterhaus Signet Glitz ‘N’ Glamour GCH CH Victory Meisterhaus The X Factor GCH CH C-Quest Jokuba Zensational GCH CH Eldorado N Akuaba Untamed Heart At Kaleonahe CH Teazer Signet Bad Romance GCH CH Taji Goes Platinum GCH CH Ahmahr Nahr’s Halleleujah Maresa Joyful Noise CH Platinum Nelson Jewel Of D’Nile SC CH Arubmec’s Sweet Spot SC GCH CH Karnak’s Pure And Simple Allure GCH CH Sonbar’s Vigilant Valkyre At Cynosure CH Jokuba-Kazor’s The Way I Am GCH CH Eldorado N Akuaba Never Surrender GCH CH Undercover Meisterhaus Hi Ho Quianna By Signet Sex B D D D D D B D D D B B B B D B B D D B BIS 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 I 7 2 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Group II 14 1 3 2 1 0 1 1 0 0 2 2 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 III 10 4 3 1 2 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 Wins Total IV BOB/V Defeated 6 59 4,793 6 42 1,932 1 19 537 0 17 470 2 25 431 3 18 417 2 8 416 2 17 386 1 5 235 1 7 205 2 11 203 1 21 194 0 2 182 0 2 177 1 1 177 0 12 146 1 4 145 1 1 138 1 3 137 0 17 116 © 2011 American Kennel Club. © 2011 All rights reserved.
