Health

We take pride in the fact that we attempt to health test MOST of our puppies and dogs, not just the ones potentially being bred! We also take pride in knowing that we submit ALL health test results, regardless of results, to OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals)! We believe being honest about all health results provides a brighter future for the preservation of all Basenjis!

 

Recommended health tests for Basenjis include special tests for eyes, hips and fanconi syndrome. Additionally, we believe in having regular check-ups with our vets and make sure bloodwork is checked regularly to ensure blood and hormone levels are appropriate, organs are functioning properly, and that no parasites are present. All dogs are kept in pristine condition, with regular exercise, close monitoring of their diets, supplementation when needed and of course, monthly heartworm/internal parasite prevention is given!

So, You Need A Veterinarian...

There are thousands of veterinarians out there, but which one is right for your pets? Here is a short list of where we recommend in the DFW area! We believe in utilizing vets who excel in their areas of choice, hence why we can offer so many recommendations for various things!
