FROM THE EDITOR TRAVELING TO SHOWS -- By Wanda Pooley We all have our ways for getting to dog shows -- some quick; some slow. My way is Slow. Just a couple of weeks before my BIG trip from the deep reaches of Texas to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania I decided to buy a new motorhome. One does have to ask one’s self, “Why would anyone buy a BIG, untested machine and head out on a 3,300 mile round trip alone?” Okay, I did have two basenjis with me. Should you decide to make a change in your travel mode to make a dog show a more fulfilling event let me share some lessons about motoring across the country in a shiny new RV. First, they are great to have, but you can be assured that if something can go wrong, it will. Second, whatever does go wrong will leave you with a lasting impression you need to share with others. DAY ONE: Camping. After driving 670 miles, I was really ready to stop for the night, put out the slides, walk the dogs, and relax with a nice glass of wine in front of the TV, but there was not a campground on the radar! And then...printed on a tiny little blue sign tacked on a post next to a ramp exit was the magic word, “Camping.” The word “camping” has a loose connotation that really means “some place off the road.” It does not always translate to “charming” or “scenic” or “private” or anything that might make one feel warm and fuzzy. My campground for the night was a grassy spot behind a rather scary motel with a dozen graveled spaces each accompanied by a wobbly or fallen post with a 50’s era electrical box attached. The trick is to find an electrical hookup that (1) actually works; and (2) has the right sized outlet for your unit. Achieving this required relocating three times. One fellow camper heard me mumbling in frustration and came over to help. He pointed to a spot across the way and said he thought that electrical box worked because someone had parked there a few days ago with a big RV. Said spot had a small lake in the middle. LESSON: Do not believe or trust every sign you read. DAY TWO: Parts. As I carefully pulled out of my “camping” spot I detected a faint thump, thump, thump coming from the front of my shiny new RV. Quick inspection revealed nothing, so I journeyed on. Some miles later the sound went from a soft thump to a loud whack, whack, whack. I pulled off the road and another inspection exposed nothing loose, nothing hanging. By the time I joined the morning rush hour traffic in Memphis that persistent whack developed into an even louder bang, bang, bang. From the passenger side mirror I spotted some long, black thingy making its way out from under the motorhome. Please note that one cannot maneuver a large RV across multiple lanes of rush hour traffic quickly AND be lucky enough to get an off-ramp that doesn’t feed into yet another messy freeway. By the time I could safely pull over, that long, black thingy, now several feet long, began to come loose somewhere between the highway and the end of the exit ramp. On foot I actually ventured towards the several lanes of traffic streaming at me before realizing that trying to retrieve that errant RV part was just sheer folly. LESSON: An RV has many parts, and some it doesn’t need. DAY THREE: Lights. I mean those annoying little indicator icons that glow on the dash panel for no rhyme or reason. I happened to notice the Engine Service Required light had popped

What on earth! I exited the freeway and found a small town with a big parking lot where I sat, pouring over the Ford engine manual. This is all a bit worrisome when sitting in a shiny new 20,000 pound vehicle 1,400 miles from home. Thanks to my handy dandy iPhone®, a quick search informed me that a Ford dealership (amazingly) was just two miles from where I was sitting. Arriving at the dealer it occurred to me that I was driving the biggest thing in their lot and that I had just turned onto a very narrow service lane. Still, a warning light is a warning light. An RV can effectively shut down a dealership parking lot, but attention is guaranteed! The best the technicians (they aren’t mechanics anymore) offered was that I needed to go to a larger dealership 40 miles away out of my way. They wouldn’t even venture to speculate what the computer was telling my engine. So here I sat, about 200 feet from a 4-lane highway with no forward escape and no solution to my problem. Still, those friendly technicians did volunteer to stop traffic so I could back the RV out onto the road. I chuckled under my breath at the amazed audience as I squeezed past a neat row of new Ford Explorers. LESSON: Plan ahead when you need to turn and never trust idiot lights. Mine went off as I backed out of the dealership. Rather like showing a whip to a horse to encourage it to behave.

NOSE
WORK
“Designed to develop your dog’s natural scenting abilities by using his desire to hunt and his love of toys, food and exercise.” NACSW
N
ose Work is is sweeping across the country as dog lovers work to develop one of their dogs’ natural abilities - SCENT. One of the best things about Nose Work is the silence. The silence is wonderful. After the handler cues the dog to “Search” or “Find it,” no more talking. The dog has to learn to work it out for himself. No distracting human chatter. Dogs trained in the rigors of obedience work tend to look to their handlers for direction when they get stuck. The lack of verbal cues while doing Nose Work forces the dog to work more independently. Those wild and energetic untrained puppies will make great Nose Work dogs since they don’t have a sense of boundaries. This sport encourages dogs to use their natural instinct to find the target scent; they really don’t need our help!
HOW DO WE GET STARTED? The National Association of Canine Scent Work, NACSW™, is the official sanctioning organization and has established the guidelines for certification of K9 Nose Work® instructors. NACSW™ involvement has been to ensure that standards of excellence are met in teaching the activity of K9 Nose Work® to handler/dog teams. Certified Nose Work Instructors, CNWI™, have met the instructor certification requirements. CNWI™ operate under their own businesses and are not employed through the NACSW™. Each instructor may use his or her own class requirements and structure. Certified instructors have to maintain continuing education to keep a current certification status. Associate Nose Work Instructor, ANWI. As this is a growing sport, not all regions have certified instructors (CNWI). However, people throughout the country have enrolled in the instructor program and have demonstrated their commitment
to learning how to teach K9 Nose Work® as developed by the founders of the sport. These teachers are designated as ANWI™ visit http://www.k9nosework.com for more information on workshops, classes and getting started with K9 Nose Work®.
NOSE WORKS - TRIALS - HOW THEY WORK. K9 Nose Works® trials are sanctioned by the National Association of Canine Scent Work (NACSW). According to the NACSW website, “This sport was inspired by detection style training for working K9s and has elements that are founded in that type of training and work. The terms nose work, fun nose work, scent work, and, search work are all commonly used references to describe any activity where the dog is using its nose to locate a target scent or odor. K9 Nose Work is the term that defines this detection-inspired sport.”
WHAT DO DOGS HAVE TO SMELL? TARGET ODORS: According to NACSW, the three target odors are Birch, Anise and Clove The Nose Work target odors are made using cotton swabs scented with natural essential oils.
FIRST THINGS FIRST! Before you enter your dog in a Nose Work Trial, your dog will need to pass an Odor Recognition Test (ORT) a requirement before a dog can participate in a NACSW trial. Passing the ORT verifies the dog knows the target odor (scent) used in competition. A dog needs to identify the location of the target odor and the handler has to correctly call an ‘alert’ within a 3-minute time period. An NACSW sanctioned certifying official can judge this test. A listing of officials is available through NACSW.

HARRY AWARD - This award is given to the most outstanding rescue dog that demonstrates extraordinary ability and spirit in nose work
SO MUCH FOR THE MECHANICS -- NOW FOR THE FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE! By Lisa Voss -- Certified Nose Work Instructor (CNWI™) Lisa stumbled over the breed description for basenjis in the AKC breed book while browsing through books at a used book store and thought a catlike dog might be the perfect match. Her basenjis introduced her to the wide variety of activities available to dog owners: Conformation, Rally, Lure Coursing, Sprint Racing, Agility, and Nose Work. They have also taught her how important it is to keep learning and trying new things. She teaches classes for Thinking Dogs in Davis, CA, is a Certified Nose Work Instructor, and an AKC and UKC licensed lure coursing judge and provisional ASFA lure coursing judge.
Focusing on the elements of Nose Work
NOSE WORK
is a fun new sport to do with your basenji. This activity utilizes their natural scenting abilities and the hunting instincts to search for and find hidden target odors. When I first read about this sport in August 2009, I knew it was something I wanted to try. I was so enthusiastic about it that I dug up five empty cardboard boxes, as described in the article to use as scent objects, and headed for the backyard. Cardboard boxes were handy but most any containers will work – shoeboxes, Tupperware, flower pots. I lined the boxes up as described in the article, placed some food in one and then led my basenji to the boxes. I was really disappointed when she lacked enthusiasm and just kind of ate the food and then looked at me as if to say, “Yeah, so what?” Discouraged by this response, it was almost four months before I tried again. Some months later, my good friend and dog trainer mentioned that, she, too, had heard about Nose Work and thought
it might be fun to get some other dog folks together for some practice sessions. Together we formed a group of about 10 people who were willing to give this a try. Before we got started, however, my friend was able to get into a workshop that was nearby, so she decided to postpone our first meeting until after she could see this training in action. In January 2010, our group gathered at the local high school and used the area around the bike rack for our practice session. We placed the boxes in line, but this time, since we were working as a group, one person would act as facilitator for the dogs working. This person showed the dogs the box with treats so they would be excited about checking the boxes. Eventually we played a shell game with the boxes by moving them around so
The Modern Basenji - Worldwide - www.modernbasenji.com | 7
the dog would investigate all the boxes. This time there was a definite difference in the response, “Hey mom, I want more!” Our group worked with our dogs once a week throughout January and February teaching them first how to search for food in boxes and then to find the treat container hidden in a search area. Throughout the week all of us practiced at home with our dogs, but the weekly practice groups were a great place to get someone else’s opinion about challenges we would encounter, plus we got to see other dogs work. The group started to see changes in the dogs’ movement, body language, and breathing when they were on to an odor and narrowing in on the source. Things we sometimes missed with our own dogs we saw more clearly by watching other dogs working. Another great resource was that my mom started taking classes in Southern California with a CNWI, so we would compare notes with her about the types of hides and progress all of us were making.
Each dog works independently, without the other dogs around; it is an obedience-free zone where the handlers are there only to reinforce when the dog gets it right. My friend attended the second workshop in March that covered a series on how to introduce other odors. Once armed with this new information our practice group ventured into the world of odor. We went back to the boxes and started pairing odor with food. All the prior training was just using food. Now we began pairing the new odor with food. The dogs were enthusiastically searching for the odor paired with their reward, and we were getting good at rewarding at source to build value for finding the odor so the dogs would start going back to odor for more reward even without the pairing. Working with the practice group, we all learned how to place hides. However, we also discovered that some hides we thought would be easy could be real challenges. Some dogs would find a hide easily while others had to really work to find the same hide. At this point we also began noticing differences in the dogs that seemed to be breed-specific. I had started my half- Avongara basenji girl, Sophie, the beginning of January. By March I decided to start training her mom, Rally. I noticed that my
basenjis tended to lift their heads and scent further off the ground than the other breeds. They were very willing to explore their environment and didn’t seem to see much as an obstacle. They would be on benches, in planter boxes, or wherever the scent took them. They just forged ahead. I also saw differences between my dogs. Sophie, the younger dog, tended to charge into the search area and needed to take a second or two to settle down before she focused on the odor. She was just so excited to be on the hunt. Nine-year old Rally, on the other hand, was much more efficient, wasting no energy and zeroing in on her hides. In May, my mom invited me to Southern California to participate in an Odor Recognition Test (ORT) with her. I wasn’t really sure I was ready, but she said to just treat this as a practice session. Besides, mom told me she had already entered my dog! So, down to Southern California I went with Sophie. I had read what to expect at the ORT but that didn’t quell my anxiety. We hadn’t been working on odor for very long, and nearly all our hides had been paired with food. My mom tested first with her girl, Bella, and she passed. Sophie and I were near the end of the entries. Once it was finally our turn, we were brought into the testing room. Two rows of six white identical boxes were laid out on the floor. Sophie and I were taken to the start position and told that the timing of the test would begin when we crossed the line. I took a deep breath and told Sophie, “Go Search!” She headed to the first box, gave a quick sniff; then off to the second and did the same thing -- a quick sniff. She moved on to the third box, but this time she took a long whiff down the seam and paused for just a second, then advanced to the next box. It was when she approached that fourth box that I knew I blew it. The third box was the one, and I didn’t realize that her long sniff of that seam was her indication. Lucky for me Sophie is very forgiving. After ruling out the other boxes she came back for another good sniff of that box, and I was able to call Alert. We passed! My mom was right about one thing, though. Doing the ORT was good practice. The most important thing I learned was that Sophie and I needed to work more on communication. At the practice sessions, I relied on my practice buddies to give us more

work on blind hides that forced me to watch Sophie more carefully. By June, I was finally had a chance attend an Intro to Nose Work Workshop. I took Rio, another of my basenjis, since I hadn’t yet started her on nose work. Even though I had taken one dog all the way through passing her ORT certification, had another started on odor training, and a puppy who thought the game was the best thing ever, I learned even more watching the Founders work dogs. I also discovered this was a game my dogs loved, and it was something I could easily play with them anytime. We have been hooked ever since then, and I have become a Certified Nose Work Instructor™ . If you would like to get started in Nose Work, I highly recommend searching for a class in your area. Having an opportunity to attend class weekly, getting feedback for how your dog is progressing, and exchanging ideas for how to overcome challenges is really invaluable. The opportunity to watch other dogs can help you to develop your skills. If classes are not available, the next best option is to attend a workshop. These are usually offered in a series so every three months or so you can check in to get feedback on how your dog is progressing. This is a good option as long as you have the motivation to follow through with the homework between classes. The big plus about both options is that if they are taught by NACSW™ certified instructors you can be assured that the philosophies of NACSW™ will be followed. These are what help this to be such a positive sport for the dogs. Each dog works independently, without the other dogs around; it is an obedience-free zone where the handlers are there only to reinforce when the dog gets it right. The dog does the work, and we handlers just sit back and watch. We can’t help them; our noses are just not up to the task. If you end up like me and decide to start before you can get into a class or workshop, then I highly recommend working with at least a partner or small group. Find some resources so you have a place to go when you have questions. Don’t rush to odor training. I kept the puppy I started in 2010 on primary reward – food -- for two years. He is an awesome nose work dog now, lots of enthusiasm and drive and willing to stick with it and solve the problem. So if you aren’t sure how to start odor then keep having fun with hiding your dog’s primary reward.
Assembling An Odor Kit When you are ready to transition from primary reward to odor you will need to start thinking about assembling your first odor kit. You will find yourself looking at travel toothbrush cases, broken pens, and make-up containers with a whole new perspective. There are several key components to a good odor kit. 1. THE CARRYING CASE – should be easy to carry around and needs to contain the scent. Waterproof containers for electronics work well, like Otterbox and Pelican Case and can often be found at a good price on Amazon.com. 2. GLASS JAR OR VIAL for scented Q-tips – Q-tips should be stored in glass because it will not react with the essential oils over time. 3. TWEEZERS – for transferring the q-tips between your glass storage vial and the hide containers. 4. HIDE CONTAINERS – these should be a variety of shapes, sizes and materials so the dog learns to look for the odor no matter what the container. 5. STRONG MAGNETS – to place inside the hide containers so you can place hides at various heights and locations on metal objects.

History of the Black Color in Basenjis

red and white and tri-color basenjis have been around since before recorded history, the black and whites were not bred outside of Africa before the 1960s. The black and white basenjis in the US today have their origins in Liberia, but they took two long and complicated routes to get here. One route was from Liberia to the USA to England and finally back to the USA. The other split route was from Liberia to South Africa and from there to the USA, as well as from South Africa to England and then to the USA. When the basenji was first re-discovered by early explorers in Africa, their color was recorded as tan (yellow) and white and black coated. These early explorers, in what was then the Congo region, were not dog people but did make note of these canines. The tan and white was probably what we now call red and white, and what they called black-coated were most likely what we call “tris” as they are mostly black-coated. There were no true black and white basenjis found in the central section of the continent. It was not until the 1960s that black and white basenjis were reported being seen, although the color had been in the Basenji Standard since it was first ratified in England in 1942. In January of 1964 the basenji world was surprised by the birth of the first black and white born in America. Khajah’s Gay Fula Challenge resulted from a breeding of two red and white parents that were closely descended from Fula of the Congo. Over the following years there were more of these ‘’Fula blacks” born in the United States as many breeders were doubling descendants of Fula. These blacks didn’t become popular as tan hairs appeared to varying degrees and muddied the black coats. This color is recessive, even to tri and when this gene is combined with tri it creates an intermediate tri-color called a “Fula tri.” At about this same time, it was becoming apparent that there were black and white basenjis in Liberia. In 1924. Harvey S. Firestone leased an abandoned Hevea rubber estate in Liberia and established the Firestone Plantations Company that covered about a million acres. This was the first large-scale investment enterprise to enter Liberia. Liberia had been of strategic value to the Allies during World War II, and in July of 1947 a modern harbor, jointly constructed by the US Navy and the Liberian government, was opened. Some of the Americans employed by the Firestone rubber company brought native dogs back with them when

BLACK HISTORY - CONTINUED they returned home to the US. One such person was Dr. Leon Standifer. Dr. Standifer supplied information about the breeding of hunting dogs on the plantation in letters to individuals and to The Basenji and the Basenji Club of America Bulletin. He tells us that a group of people on the plantation worked on selectively breeding basenjis for about 10 years. He also tells that the natives liked to crossbreed their dogs with the bigger barking dogs brought in from the outside world. More information on this subject can be found in the BCOA African Stock Project “Liberia Paper — 1964’’ on the BCOA web site (http://basenji org). One of the major routes the black and white basenjis took began when Dr. Standifer brought Kiki of Cryon back to the US. This Liberian bred black and while bitch was sired by Black Hunter of Duside. Hunter was described by Marie S. Standifer as “Black and white, small (about 14” at the shoulder), good conformation, very good hunting dog (guinea fowl).” His dam was “Smokey,” a black and white bitch acquired from the Loma tribe. Kiki’s dam was Wheeler’s Goa Goa, described thusly by Mrs. Standifer: “Red and white, somewhat more white on body than desirable, tail curl fair, very good hunter for guinea fowl.” Kiki was bred to Gunn’s Ramses, a son of Eng. Ch. Firebird of the Congo and out of a Ch. Kingolo granddaughter. This mating, which produced Black Diamond of Cryon1, was whelped June 14, 1962. Black Diamond was acquired by Shirley Chambers of Khajah Kennels and bred to Khajah’s Black Fula Challenge. At this time it was not known that there were two kinds of black — the recessive black like Challenge and the line dominant black that the Liberians turned out to be. As a consequence of this breeding, and due to the fact that there were many other Fula descendants in the gene pool, many dominant black and whites carried the recessive black Since Kiki was not registered with a kennel club, none of these blacks could be registered with AKC. The AKC would not open its studbooks to any of these unregistered African dogs. Two black males from this litter, Satin and Sheen, were sent to England. There, Cdr. and Mrs. (Jayne) Stringer incorporated the black color into
their Horsley line for three generations so that the progeny could be registered with The Kennel Club in England, and thereafter with the AKC. As a result of this cooperative venture, a black male, Ch. Sir Datar of Horsley, was returned to Khajah Kennels in 1969. Although some of his siblings and other black relatives came to the US, Datar is responsible for the majority of the black and whites in this country today. “Despite the difficulties of registration and distance, the black and whites, with the persistence of all basenjis, have found their way from Liberia to the US, and into our registry and into our hearts.” The second route the black and whites took from Liberia to the US began in the early ‘60s when Roslyn Sadler (a missionary to the Loma tribe) took a native black and white bitch, “Miliku,” to Northern Rhodesia. Miliku produced a black and while son, Taysenji Dopa, who was the grandsire of S.A. Ch. Lazi of the Senjies. Mrs. Gwendolyn Stanich of Illinois (Coptokin Kennel) sent two red and white bitches to Africa to be bred to black and white studs that were registered with the South African Kennel Club. Coplokin Copper Bikini was bred to “Lazi,” and the blacks were sent back to the US. The other bitch, Coptokin Copper Beautique, was bred to Taysenji Tigee, a black and white whose pedigree is onequarter native stock. This litter, bred in Africa, whelped in England, was imported into the US and registered in all three countries. Although the Coptokin blacks were not as widely used as the betterknown Horsley/Khajah blacks their descendants can still be found in our gene pool today. “Tigee’s” sire was Taysenji Talizu (Fisibu ex Fahneh - black and white). Fisibu and Fahneh also produced Harbel’s Fifiligi, owned by A. L. Wheeler. Fifiligi was bred to Subah, owned by Margaret Miller, and produced a black and white male named Lovella in 1963. Lovella was owned by a N. O. Peacock of Douglassville, PA. USA. according to his SAKC pedigree. Peacock also owned Beedie, a black and white bitch whelped in 1963 (Harbel’s Nehbeh, owner A. L.
Wheeler, ex Pattisue’s Miliku, owned by S. R. Smith), and a black and white bitch named Nyatnah whelped in 1964 (Lovella ex Beedie). These related basenjis were all registered with the South African Kennel Club. While the breeders were all connected to the Firestone Plantation, the owner’s address was in the USA; so possibly these dogs were brought back to this country although no farther record has been found. During the early ‘70s a “battle of the blacks” ensued. An owner of some “Fula blacks” claimed that hers were the only pure basenji blacks, and an owner of Liberian blacks claimed that hers were the only pure black basenjis. By then it had become apparent that the “Fula blacks” were inherited recessively and that tan hairs appeared to various degrees throughout the black coat. This muddying of the color made them unpopular. Some breeders were of the opinion that selective breeding of these “Fula blacks” could eventually eliminate the tan hairs; unfortunately this was never pursued. The Liberian blacks were dominant black, and the color bred true. Those wanting black and white basenjis took the easy way and bred to them. At first it was thought that the dominant blacks were what Little had called “A” - dominant black on the agouti series - and that these black and white basenjis carried either red or tri as an allele to the black but, as basenjis have a habit of doing, they proved people wrong when litters of black to tri breeding produced all three colors (black, tri and red). Since three colors can not be carried at one locus, one gene has to be somewhere else. In 2007 DNA researchers defined the “K” series. This is where the Dominant Black gene (KB) is located along with the Brindle gene (kbr) and the (ky) yellow gene. Despite the difficulties of registration and distance, the black and whites, with the persistence of all basenjis, have found their way from Liberia to the US, and into our registry and into our hearts. 1 Cryon is the name of a mountain
located on the Firestone Plantation, once sacred to several Liberian tribes as the initiation area of the Leopard Society that is the power and discipline group of these tribes.

Origin Re-examined
ESENJO, PART 1
by Dr. Jo Thompson in collaboration with Mrs. Margaret Sommer
IN
October 2007, Margaret Sommer gave a presentation at the BCOA National Specialty held in northern California. Having just returned to the United States from my field site in the heart of the Democratic Republic of Congo, I was not able to attend. However, due to widespread fascination with the story of Esenjo and her importance to our breed as a foundation bitch, Margaret agreed to publish the presentation notes in the BCOA Bulletin (Vol. XLI No. 1, Jan/Feb/March 2008, pages 24-27). I read her article with keen interest. Having firsthand knowledge of the places mentioned, I was able to read her account with a more informed eye and was immediately skeptical of the conclusion that Esenjo originated in the Ituri Forest. So, I contacted Margaret to inquire further about the unpublished details of the story and to share with her my personal experience traveling in the areas named, as well as facts concerning the details of Esenjo’s origin as presented at that time.

In March 2009 I presented Margaret with details that I could personally validate. Upon considered review, she agreed that Esenjo did not originate from the Ituri Forest in northeastern Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo) but rather that Esenjo was bred by pygmies from southeastern DRC, a distance greater than 1500 km / 930 miles away as the crow flies (the

shortest route between two points). To honor Esenjo’s legacy and her ancestors, we would like to set the record straight. The information about Esenjo’s origin was presented to Margaret in a telephone conversation on 7 June 1983 followed by a face-to-face meeting in Margaret’s home with Mr. Luis Clark and Esenjo on 8 June 1983. Sandy Bridges and Penny Inan were also present at the meeting. Sandy took notes and gave them to Margaret to transcribe and keep with the annotations she made during the introductory telephone conversation the day before. Information was jotted down quickly, using phonetic spelling because of their unfamiliarity with the locations named. Margaret acknowledged that her “notes were sketchy since [she] was preoccupied with trying to sort fact from possible fiction” and that the spelling of location names was not exact. In 1978 Esenjo was whelped in a litter owned by pygmies in Zaire (now known as the DRC) and was then gifted to Mr. Luis Clark who subsequently imported her to the USA at the age of ten-weeks. According to Mr. Clark during the meeting in 1983, he had been in DRCongo (then Zaire) working for MorrisonKnudsen International, an American engineering company. He worked with the road crew building the Inga-Shaba electrical transmission line from Boma to Kolwazi [SIC - as hurriedly spelled when the notes were recorded]. The Inga-Shaba Extra High Voltage Direct Current (EHVDC) overhead electric power line was built to transmit electricity from the Inga hydroelectric complex at Boma on the mouth of the Congo River to the mineral fields in Katanga (then Shaba) Province at Kolwezi. Starting at the Inga Static Inverter Station, it is the longest overhead power line in the world and has switching stations at Selo (near Kinshasa), Kikwit, Kananga, and Kamina prior to delivering power to the Kolwezi Inverter Station.

Congo - Ituri tribe - Lumbashi tribe.” From that cryptic jotting and lack of familiarity with locations in the Congo, it had been concluded that Esenjo was from the Ituri Forest.

Travel route locations named by Luis Clark as places he visited during his time in-country, numbered in consecutive order: 1) Lubumbashi, 2) Kolwezi, 3) Kasongo / Kapongo, 4) Kuba, 5) Kinshasa, 6) Cabinda, and 7) Matadi. Ituri Forest indicated by green triangle.
According to Margaret, Mr. Clark met the pygmies in Lubumbashi, which was the headquarters of the MorrisonKnudsen project. Pygmies were recruited for the MorrisonKnudsen labor force from the areas along the work route. He had to follow the transmission line route in the course of his work. In 1983 Margaret noted that Mr. Clark had to “migrate from Lubumbashi to Kolwezi to Kasongo (upriver) to Kuba to Kinshasa to Cabinda to Matadi back to Kinshasa and retrace.” In 1983 when Margaret met Esenjo, she went to special lengths to have her purity certified by Elspet Ford and Doreen Duffin during the BCOA National Specialty held in San Francisco, California that year. They concurred that Esenjo’s phenotype appeared to be uncontaminated, and that she was a basenji. Margaret proceeded to breed three generations of full-sibling matings, with each litter’s phenotype remaining true to the breed standard. Yet, the dogs in the Ituri Forest have been inter-mixed with European breeds for many decades and their phenotypes can be quite varied. So, I wondered how the Ituri Forest came into the story. Margaret revealed that after more than 25 years since her auspicious meeting with Mr. Clark, it was not possible to remember whether he had specifically said that the pygmies had come from the Ituri Forest or whether this was merely assumed based on the belief that all Congo pygmies come from the Ituri. Since it was (and frequently still is) a common belief that all pygmies in the Congo came only from the Ituri, it wasn’t much of an imaginative leap to assume that any group recognized as pygmies would have come from that forest. Margaret pulled out her original notes. In 1983 she had noted only, “Zaire - Belgian
Map illustrating the location of pygmy groups in Africa (modified from African Pygmies edited by Luigi Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Orlando, Fla.: Academic Press, 1986) with red stars showing significant locations mentioned by Mr. Luis Clark as related to Esenjo’s origin.
Margaret added that in 1983 she believed Esenjo had been bred by pygmies of the “Lumbashi” tribe. However, there are no Lumbashi pygmies in the Ituri Forest and never have been. In fact, there is no such thing as Lumbashi people. Margaret informed me that she “probably heard incorrectly since [Luis Clark] pronounced it Lubumbashi at the interview.” Based on the other evidence presented above, the presence of resident pygmy groups originating within proximity to ville Lubumbashi strongly supports the conclusion that pygmy people who presented Mr. Clark with the puppy named Esenjo came from Lubumbashi environs.

Tails from the Field 2012 BASENJI NATIONAL SPECIALTY LURE COURSING ADVENTURE By Thomas Meade II
W
hen I tell non-sighthound people about lure coursing, they’re often amazed on how the natural instinct of the basenji -- to chase --- is still intact after decades of selective breeding. Coursing is an event where you can see sighthounds do exactly what they were born to do --- chase! Every single time I see a hound lure course, I find it completely beautiful and exhilarating. I am left in awe. I had the fantastic opportunity to participate in lure coursing at the 2012 Basenji Club of America National Specialty at the Hanover Shoe Farms in Littlestown, PA. I did not get to slip the lead, but did have the opportunity to be on the field with Connie Camp, Trial Huntmaster, apprenticing a new skill --Huntmaster. As a handler who primarily competes in conformation, it is a special a treat to participate in lure coursing. The basenjis’ behavior is completely different from what we see in the conformation ring. Lure Coursing also provides an opportunity to meet new people and learn new things about the dogs and the sport. My mother and I both had a great time and definitely look forward to lure coursing events in the future. Our coursing adventure began on a cool Wednesday morning in Gettysburg, PA at the Red Carpet Inn, one of the recommended national specialty hotels. We woke up late because Mom thought we were leaving the hotel at 7 a.m. Actually, we needed to be at the lure coursing site at that time. I rushed to
exercise the dogs while my mother loaded the Jeep ©Photo by George Woodard Wrangler. This left us approximately 30 minutes to make it to roll call. As my mother took the speed limit into consideration (well, not really) we arrived just in time. I walked up to the shelter building to ask the field secretary, Audrey Silverstein, if it was possible to make a day-of-trial entry. She assured us we had time, so I filled out the entry forms for the American Kennel Club (AKC) lure coursing and American Sighthound Field Association (ASFA) lure coursing trials.
I appreciated and admired how pleasant it was to be around the coursing community. We were quite excited to see our veteran bitch, Vivian (CH Meisterhaus Visionary JC,) course again. We had coursed her a few times to get her AKC JC and QC titles. I told my mother I would prefer that she released Vivian because I was concerned that I would pre-slip, or not be able to slip her correctly. I wanted the smoothest performance for Vivian. My mother was happy to accommodate my request. She enjoys coursing probably as much as the dogs! We did, however, run
into a ‘slight’ problem. In our hectic packing at the hotel, we forgot our slip leads and blankets, the second and third most important things, after the dog, to remember. Luckily a fellow competitor, Sue Campeau, loaned us a set of blankets and a coursing lead. Along with Kim Brown and Audrey Silverstein, Field Secretaries, Connie Camp, Huntmaster, and Holly Hamilton, we had great mentors for the day. Sue Campeau has a ‘lure coursing’ van full of all the necessities for coursing: several sets of blankets, leads (at least 50), water bottles, wet coats in every color and style, water buckets, and anything else needed on site at lure coursing. I think Sue is a dog show vendor too! As we watched other basenjis run and waited for Vivian’s turn, we enjoyed a great lunch and pleasant conversations with people in our breed. They were very welcoming to the all the newcomers like us and helpful by offering suggestions and sharing feedback on their specialty. I appreciated and admired how pleasant it was to be around the coursing community. We also had very important individuals in our breed at the trial including Doreen Duffin, Damara Bolte, Jane Lodge, and Olga Evelyn. Olga was entered in the trial (as a rookie) with her rescue basenji, Paji,
The Modern Basenji - Worldwide - www.modernbasenji.com | 20
and is new to lure coursing. It was very different to see an approved AKC basenji judge experiencing a ‘brand new’ event with her dog. I’ve shown to her in the basenji conformation ring, and I can assure everyone she is a very competent breed judge. She also judged our 2012 Basenji Top 25 along with Doreen Duffin on Friday evening, further evidence of the knowledge and respect Olga has in our breed. I think all AKC conformation basenji judges should experience (as competitors) more than just conformation venues. In lure coursing the dogs are running full out. If they are not structurally sound, they often do not course well, and a BIG characteristic of our breed is hunting and chasing prey. As I shared before, I was much more comfortable with my mother releasing the dog. It was still a great experience from the sidelines though. I got to see my Vivian in a way I could only experience during such an event -- a complete transformation from my 7.5 year old dog who usually lounges on the patio table sleeping (unless she needs to chase something in the yard) into a mean, lean, and super coursin’ machine! The AKC Trial was our first event. Vivian did well placing 5th in the Veteran Class and receiving High Scoring Champion of Record. Mom and I were completely thrilled to see her run and receive a placement at a national lure coursing specialty. Between the two trials we took a short lunch break. It was so nice to see all of the lure coursing people stay on site, talk and just eat together. I’ve never seen many conformation people come together or eat lunch with each other and enjoy each other’s company. Oh, and did I mention the desert was absolutely fantastic? The lunch is one thing that I will always acknowledge because one, as a growing teenager, food is the way to my heart, and two, it was an experience at a dog event like no other. I hope lure coursing will include a lunch at future trials because it just took the whole experience to a higher level of excellence, and also provided an opportunity to enjoy excellent sandwiches, French bread and refreshing drinks. Next up was the 2012 Basenji Club of America ASFA Lure Coursing. This was hands down my favorite part of the day. Connie Camp, the Huntmaster for the event, kindly extended an invitation (literally on the spot) for me to be the
Apprentice Huntermaster at the national specialty trial! I learned the protocols and the specific spiel, with my right arm high in the air,
Connie Camp, the Huntmaster for the event, kindly extended an invitation (literally on the spot) for me to be the Apprentice Huntermaster at the national specialty trial! “Do not release your hounds until you hear the ‘T’ in Tally Ho. There is up to a 10 point penalty for pre-slipping, I’m going to ask the judges if they are ready. The judges are ready. I’m going to ask if the lure operator is ready. The lure operator is ready. Are the handlers ready? The handlers are ready. Tally Ho!” After the first couple times of watching Connie do it, she asked me if I was ready. Allowing for a few initial errors such as signaling the lure operator to go without asking if the handlers were ready, I thought I did quite well! This was definitely a rewarding experience for me. I hope I get the opportunity to serve as an Apprentice Huntmaster again. As a matter of conduct, The rules specify that I cannot serve as Hunt Master for a dog that I own, which is
understandable. So while Connie handled the Huntmaster’s job, I watched my girl, Vivian, run! She did remarkably well placing First in the ASFA Veteran Class. She did well in the Best of Breed runoff placing Second overall. We didn’t even know that there was a trophy ceremony, and we were amazed that everyone stayed to support their fellow coursers. Vivian received beautiful prizes for both first place in the Veteran Class and High Scoring Champion of Record. After we returned to the hotel, it was necessary to spoil Vivian. She slept in our beds at the hotel for the rest of the week and pretty much got to do whatever she wanted. My mother and I are very thankful for the wonderful experience the 2012 Basenji Club of America National Lure Coursing Specialty (AKC and AFSA) offered us this year. It is something that we will remember for the rest of our lives. If you haven’t done coursing before, I urge you to try it. You will experience excellent mentoring, genuine sportsmanship, and observe lots of dogs absolutely loving to “chase the bunny”! Thank You, 2012 BCOA Executive Officers and Board of Directors and the 2012 Basenji Club of America Field Trial Chairman, Sid Sher, Secretaries Kim Brown and Audrey Silverstein, and Lure Operators, and judges Cindy Vliet and Dean Wright. Until next time...

The B-LEGAL BLOG By Karla Schreiber
KNOCK-KNOCK… WHO’S THERE? Home Visit Best Practices for Fanciers
M
ost of us take for granted that, as breeders/fanciers, we occasionally allow families or individuals we don’t know into our homes to see and meet basenjis “in the flesh.” Fanciers my age (50+) and older have grown up with this trusting notion. We freely open our homes to those interested in learning about the breed; we were encouraged to do this at the outset; and we’ve continued to encourage those we mentor to do this as well. Recently, however, I ran across two non-basenji breeder websites that (at least initially) gave me pause. Both discussed at length “Why we no longer allow home visits.” I’m not an alarmist, and don’t think that discontinuing home visits is good for the breed or the fancy in the long run – but reviewing these breeder statements did cause me to consider just how open, honest and trusting most of us are … often with little hard and fast knowledge to back up our decisions about visitors. In this blog, I’ll quickly run through the reasons some breeders have decided not to allow home visits, and possible work-arounds that can help us continue this practice, while taking steps to protect our homes, our dogs and our families.
shelters or pet stores before coming to our homes.
Hobby breeders do not carry business insurance.
This is an issue for almost every hobby breeder. We are not “places of business,” and we maintain only basic homeowner coverage, not business liability coverage. If an invitee to our home is injured – by a dog, by slipping and falling accident, or by any means, we could find ourselves involved in litigation. Short of purchasing expensive additional coverage, or discontinuing home visits, however, there are some common sense things we can do to minimize this risk. Make sure the walkways leading to/ from your home are clear of debris such as snow, ice, or mud when expecting visitors. Make sure the area where visitors will interact with dogs/pups is hazard free. If children will be visiting, make it clear that they will be expected to remain in the same room as the adults and the homeowner at all times. Never leave guests alone with pups or adult dogs – not even for a few minutes – and supervise all interaction carefully, with an eye to your dogs’ comfort levels. If a visitor is interacting with a dog or puppy inappropriately, say something. It is better to lose a sale than deal with a bite incident, or an injured pup (that has been accidentally dropped.).
Visitors can spread disease to young pups.
Most of us realize that this is always a possibility. We breeders often avoid shows when we have girls at home who are nearly ready to deliver, and when we have very young pups. However, I don’t think we necessarily give as much thought to diseases that may come from outside individuals visiting our babies and adults. It takes only a few minutes to ask if visitors have dogs at home, and if their pets are vaccinated. It also takes only a few minutes to remind these folks that our pups are susceptible to disease prior to vaccination, and that people should not visit dog shows,
Some people are scary.
This sounds funny, but it isn’t. It is important to use all of our senses and resources to evaluate people we are going to allow to come into our homes. If there is anything in a person’s emails, phone calls, or texts prior to a visit that makes you uncomfortable, cancel the visit. A person who seems angry, contradictory, or even just obnoxious in initial discussions is probably not somebody you’d sell a pup to or provide with a referral. If a person asks inappropriate personal questions, that should be a big red flag (are you married, do you have children, how old are you, etc.). Again, it is better to lose a sale than endanger yourself, your family and your dogs.

Some people aren’t who they pretend to be.
I know of at least two cases (not involving basenji breeders) where animal rights activists posed as would-be puppy buyers in order to gain access to breeders’ homes ~ then reported them to local authorities for alleged violations (some real, some fabricated). We have to face the fact that when we talk to someone by phone or email, we are often accepting what they tell us about themselves at face value. There is nothing untoward about using the tools we have to our own advantage! Conducting a few Internet searches to determine if a person lives where they say they do, works where they say they do. is cheap and easy. The vast majority of the time, folks will “check out” ~ at least to the extent that we can verify basic information. It is also not improper to ask for a personal reference for someone who not a family member. If a would-be-visitor doesn’t seem to have done any real homework regarding the breed but just wants to “stop by to take a look,” this should be a red flag. Most people who are seriously considering the breed will have done enough homework to speak intelligently about why the breed interests them, and why they want to learn more. The same logic applies to thieves who may simply be “casing homes” – either with the hope of stealing puppies (heaven forbid!) or valuables. Even the AKC has warned breeders to be cautious in this regard: See April 2008 AKC E-newsletter at http://www.akc.org/ enewsletter/yourakc/2008/apriol/theft.cfm.

Better to be safe than sorry.
In 2004, there was extensive media coverage in the U.S. regarding the murder of a pregnant dog breeder in rural Missouri, Bobbie Jo Stinnett, who allowed someone she’d met on the Internet to visit her home to see a puppy. That’s an extreme and unusual case, and it is always easy to dismiss what seems extreme and unusual. However, if you live alone, and strangers are coming over for a home visit, consider alerting a friend or neighbor regarding the day and time of the visit, and asking them to check in with you by phone or email at a specific time. This is not a bad idea, even if you don’t live alone. Once a family or individual has visited more than once, you may decide this isn’t necessary – but at least in the first instance, it is a smart practice. While inviting people interested in the breed to visit our homes is not exactly analogous to walking down the street and randomly inviting strangers, we should acknowledge that it is an activity that most non-breeders don’t regularly engage in. I don’t believe breeders should refuse to allow home visits when they have pups, or when they don’t. One-on-one public education is critical to what we do as purebred dog breeders. None of the above is intended to frighten anybody away from the notion that having visitors to our homes to meet our basenjis is good for the public, the fancy, and our dogs/pups. The goal is merely to raise awareness. Simple precautions - being alert and focused when dealing with home visits - can make the practice safer and more enjoyable for all.

In Memory SUSAN SMITH
TEXAS NAUGHTY BY NATURE BASENJIS Susan passed in July after a long battle with an inoperable brain tumor. With her zest for life, Susan didn’t know a stranger and if you spent more than a few days in Texas, to Susan you were “almost a fellow Texan.” Susan’s “Welcome to Texas” personality and a hearty, infectious laugh drew people to her. She loved her family and friends, her basenjis and TEXAS! We will miss this “Yellow Rose!” Thanks for being who you were, Susan. Photo by Wanda Pooley
DONNA SMITH OKLAHOMA
Donna Smith passed away in July, from complications caused by West Nile Virus. Donna had been a long-time basenji fancier. She was a BCOA member for thirty years, and a past president of both the Indian Nations Basenji Club and our own Basenji Fanciers of Greater Phoenix. The BFof Gtr Phoenix is sending a donation to Valley Fever Research in honor of Donna. Her services will be held in Oklahoma, where she had been living for the last several years.

By Gale Whitehurst, UNDERCOVER Basenjis
I have two grandchildren, Jack who is 7 and Monica who is 4, and when I learned the BCOA 2012 National Specialty was going to be held in July in Gettysburg, I began formulating the most wonderful “Auntie Mame” trip in my mind. For over a year, the children and I plotted and planned and scoped out our journey. Our plans left many thinking that I had lost my mind, but we thought it to be great fun. And I had strategically planned to have help along the way, so I was never as brave as it seemed.
MY ALMOST TRIP TO THE NATIONAL SPECIALTY or “IF you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans.”
When
I first heard that the 2012 Specialty was going to be in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, I was ecstatic. I had been to Gettysburg back in the 70’s while attending the University of Pittsburgh, but it had been a day trip on our way to the Amish country, and no one but I had been really interested in history. Now, not only was the National to be in an area steeped in history, it was going to be in July. I have two grandchildren, Jack who is 7 and Monica who is 4, and I began formulating the most wonderful “Auntie Mame” trip in my mind. For over a year, the children and I plotted and planned and scoped out our journey. Our plans left many thinking that I had lost my mind, but we thought it to be great fun. And I had strategically planned to have help along the way, so I was never as brave as it seemed. We decided to go up the east coast, making our first stop in Waycross, Georgia, the home of the Okefenokee Swamp. We talked endlessly about the alligators, otters, and other swamp wildlife we would see. Jack is very interested in the Seminole Native Americans and wanted to see how they hid from the whites way back in the swamp. We would end the day in Savannah and eat seafood at Love’s, our favorite restaurant overlooking the water. We would then head to Southport, North Carolina where Janice Harrison had planned a wonderful couple of days visiting the battleship in Wilmington and going through Fort Fisher and the North Carolina aquarium before heading back to Southport via a ferry boat. Both children were excited about the idea of riding across the water on a boat carrying a hundred cars and people. We’d stay to enjoy the 4th of July celebration and then head up the coast toward Richmond. We could stop along the way and see anything that caught our fancy as we’d have two days to make it to Frederick, Maryland where we were staying. In Frederick, we would be joined by the children’s parents, my daughter, Ashley and son-in-law Fernando, and meet up with Connie Camp, Sam Bishop, and Olivia Rosener for some sightseeing in and around Washington. Sam is an avid pilot, and Jack plans to The Modern Basenji - Worldwide - www.modernbasenji.com | 30

Great, but it cut him out of going to Monica’s ambition in her four-year old play at her church Pennsylvania, so Ashley decided to go with us as far as school was to be a squirmy worm, I encourage Jack’s ambition Knoxville and then fly home. However, this extra body meant at every turn. Sam and Connie had discussed going to the I needed a van so that all of us could travel comfortably. Smithsonian to see the planes; to Dulles Airport to see the Janice and her husband, Boyd, helped me buy one, and with shuttle Discovery; to the mint to see money printed; and Sam the additional space, I decided to take Quianna, GCH even found a Spy Museum. Unfortunately by the time they Undercover Meisterhaus Hi Ho Quianna by Signet, to the came out of the Spy Museum, my aerospace engineer wanted National and entered her in the Top Twenty, Best of Breed, and to be a spook for Lure Coursing. How much more perfect could you get? I’d have the kids to myself, the CIA. Oh Shortly after well. I had also I sent in my with Janice’s help, the first week; Ashley, Fernando, and Sam discovered there entries for would entertain the kids during the dog show week, and let Connie and I was a Civil War coursing and would join in with sightseeing as we wanted. Finally, the Berrys and reenactment Best of Breed, Blaise and Lilth would keep the children happily occupied the last week occurring while the Top Twenty of the trip. Grandma would get the credit for a marvelous vacation, and we would be invitations were there, and of sent out, and it we all would have some great stories to tell when we got home. course, a day turned out HAD to be spent in Hershey, Pennsylvania to see how the because of the shortened qualifying period, Quianna wasn’t candy was made. invited. Earlier, I had brought her home to let her be a dog and In between all their activities, the kids planned to take in run the three-acre fence line to get in shape for lure coursing the dog show. Kristine Dougherty had entered Ozzie and JuJu and the Specialty. It was disappointing, but rationalizing yet in many activities on fun night with the children “showing” the again, I decided to leave her home to rest so she would be dogs. Olivia and Nadia were showing in Juniors, and ready for her new duty as mom later this year. UnderCover had dogs in various performance events and Since Quinna was just two single points shy of earning conformation events. However, our actual participation at the that Grand Champion Silver Medal and Susan Schroeder had National was limited because our 2011 litter of puppies was decided not to go to Gettysburg, I entered Quianna in a dog born on the 14th of January and they had to have been born on show in Florida so Susan could get those last two points.

Thus then I was almost happy that Quianna was going to miss the we planned to attend the show around our entries, but we were National Specialty as I could just swap one goal for another! going to have a lot of free time too.

only ended my BIG trip with the children; it ended my last chance this year to get those two lousy points on Quianna and finish her silver status before she had puppies. I tell you, I felt light-headed and woozy. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry! I certainly did not have time to savor the moment despite the fact that I’d been waiting three years for it to occur. All I could think about was how in the world was I going to tell those children that we weren’t going to Pennsylvania! My grandson had told everyone in the state of Georgia as well as surrounding states that he was going to Gettysburg. Monica had no idea what the significance of Gettysburg was but she knew she was going somewhere and that was enough for her. I had made all these preparations, bought all the clothes and “stuff” we were going to need, stockpiled gas cards, stockpiled Cracker Barrel gift cards, bought a van, made reservations, bought Ashley a plane ticket, saved money, and all my planning was going to be for naught as we couldn’t go. For a whole day I didn’t tell anyone. I played every scenario I could think of in my mind. I rehearsed telling everyone in my head and thought about it while trying to sleep. By the second day, I had begun to make peace with the situation. Finally, I got up the nerve to call Wanda as I figured she would be the most sympathetic. I must say that was a miscalculation as she began to try to figure out ways I could just fly into Washington before the National was over. Even I knew that was not feasible. Connie, Janice, and Susan were actually pretty stoic about the whole thing. I still had not said a word to Ashley or the children. Jack and Monica were out of school by now, and all they could talk about was their upcoming trip. I let Ashley finish her closing
days at school, and then I told her, “Ashley, you are taking the children on vacation, and I am staying home to take Quianna up to Atlanta for AI surgery.” To say that my daughter was less than thrilled was an understatement. However, when faced with the prospect of telling the children the trip was off, she gave in. Ashley didn’t drive the van, so I have a “brand new for me” van that’s been driven four times since June. Ashley packed more than the law allows in her little Toyota Rav 4, and off they went. Thanks to Janice, Connie, Sam and Olivia, they all had a wonderful time. Jack has given two talks on his trip in school, and they’ve only had classes for a week. He kept a journal of the trip, his mother kept a journal that she shared as they went along, and Ashley and Connie took many wonderful pictures. While it was not the trip I originally envisioned, they had a blast and Ashley and the children developed a closer bond than they had when they left Thomasville. I certainly appreciate all my friends who made it happen. After much nerve-racking time, money and effort, Quianna received her surgical implant with frozen semen from Jack in Atlanta. Many, many thanks to Pam Darwin who left Bill in charge of her geriatric set of basenjis and drove me to Atlanta. We left on Sunday expecting to be back on Monday or early Tuesday. Instead, we didn’t get home until late on Wednesday. This whole frozen semen breeding has been a learning curve for me. Next time I’m sure I’ll be less nervous about the whole thing - especially if we have puppies. Then all the trials and tribulations will be forgotten. Back to the future will have happened. Appropriately enough, pups are due on Labor Day weekend.

American Kennel Club
NEW TITLING OPPORTUNITIES ALL AKC CLUBS LICENSED TO HOLD OBEDIENCE EVENTS
THE
AKC Companion Events department has some exciting news for clubs licensed to hold obedience/rally events regarding changes to the regulations. The Department continues to focus on growing participation by varying levels of competitors. To continue generating new competitor interest, the AKC has developed new Optional Titling classes and titles: • • •
Pre-Novice Class Pre-Open Class Pre-Utility Class
THE classes have been developed with no Group Exercises and the jumps in Pre-Open and Pre-Utility are set to half the height of the dog at the withers. With the addition of the new Pre-Novice Optional Titling Class, the current Non-Regular Pre-Novice Class has been renamed the Sub-Novice Class. These new classes become effective and may be offered at events beginning July 1, 2013. WITH the addition of more new classes, it became apparent that AKC needed to allow exhibitors the ability to move their dog to more than just the traditional level classes when they complete a title. The language in the Obedience Regulations, Chapter 1, Section 16a has been changed from “Move-ups” to “Transfers”. Effective July 1, 2012, after a dog earns a title, it may be transferred to another class in a future trial even though the closing date for the trial has passed, provided the club offers
PRESS RELEASE FROM THE AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB From Pamela Manaton Director of Obedience, Rally & Tracking
transfers and provided the dog and handler are eligible. Dogs competing in obedience in the Optional Titling classes may be moved to Regular Titling classes and vice versa or even to Non-Regular classes at the request of the exhibitor. TRANSFERS are only allowed within the same sport, e.g. obedience class to obedience class, or rally class to rally class. The request to transfer must be presented in writing to the superintendent or trial secretary at least 30 minutes prior to the start of each trial. Transfers may be approved provided the class and judge are available, and the class has not reached its limit. Movement between an “A” and “B” class at the same level is not considered a transfer — refer to Chapter 1, Section 16b of the Obedience Regulations.
Clubs may offer a reduced entry fee for Junior Handlers in their Obedience, Rally, Tracking and Agility events effective for events applied for on or after January 1, 2013. ANOTHER change applies to the Beginner Novice B Class eligibility requirements (Obedience Regulations – Chapter 6, Section 2). Previously once a dog had earned the BN title, they were required to move out of the Beginner Novice Class. Effective August 1, 2012, a dog may remain in the Beginner Novice B Class until the handler believes the dog is ready to enter another level class. LASTLY, we know that parents have a lot of choices for their children to participate in multiple activities these days. The AKC has approved that clubs may offer a reduced entry fee for Junior Handlers in their obedience, rally, tracking and agility events effective for events applied for on or after January 1, 2013. A Junior must have an AKC Junior Handler Number and is defined as anyone under 18 years of age on the first day of the event. Please remember to encourage new exhibitors, especially juniors to participate in our sports; they are the future of the sports we love so much.

BASENJI FANCIERS OF GREATER PHOENIX
By Arnieta Kurtz
By Arnieta Kurtz
The usual business April meeting of the GCBC became a party. For the first time in several years both Joyce Banderman (formerly Boehm, of Ericonji Basenjis) and Arnieta Kurtz were in Illinois at the same time. The meeting was changed to the last Friday and was preceded by a pot luck dinner. Everyone contributed tasty dishes, including Italian fare, salads, & terrific desserts. It was great to visit with people we don’t see often, and even some business was (L-R) Sue Joyner & Joyce Banderman conducted! That same week several members (& life members) made the trip to Rensselaer, Indiana, to visit Berdene Sweet, a founding member of the GCBC, and now a life member. At over 90 years old, Berdene still vividly remembers the picketing of (L-R) Berdene Sweet, Dan DeWalt, Joyce the Sun Times Banderman Building in 1964 and loves to talk about it. Berdene no longer has a basenji, but does have a cat as her animal companion. During this week we also held a memorial get-together for a founding member of the GCBC. Former member Tom Diener passed away last fall, in North Carolina. He was buried in the Chicago area, so a memorial luncheon was held at the Parthenon Greek Restaurant, where many happy post-dog show gettogethers were held. This was followed by a trip to the cemetery to say “Good-by.” The GCBC is planning to have our specialty show with the Hound Group Shows in November.
BFGP held its final meeting get-together for the summer. There are no activities, or even dog shows, during the summer. The next show and the next meeting will be in September. This is quite a change from the Midwest, where most shows take place from spring through fall, with very few shows in the winter months, and where meetings are held year-round. This last meeting was a summer cook-out. Hot dogs and summer salads were served. Awards were given to owners whose dogs achieved titles during the previous year. The recipients were
(L-R) Sam Preedasuth, Arnieta Kurtz, Susan Howard.
Sam Preedasuth with Amazing Nowata Sweet Daisy, JC and Amazing Nowata Wild Cat having earned AKC championships; Susan Howard with Sulous Ardith Bay earning an AKC championship, and Arnieta Kurtz with Furaha’s Mwimbaji earning a UKC championship. These basenjis are breeder/owner handled. With show entries shrinking and entry fees going up, for some reason AKC has chosen to change Arizona’s point system. Now, instead of being with New Mexico and Texas, we are with California. This has considerably increased the number of dogs necessary for a major considerably at our shows. It looks like we will be having a lot of one and maybe two-point shows when they resume in the fall. However, we can hope that our specialty in November will give people a chance for those needed majors. AKC has approved our date, November 4, 2012, our site, Pioneer Park, Apache Junction, and our judges Jane Gentzen and Carmella Troisi-Hoerr. Besides a chance for majors we can promise great trophies, a terrific raffle, delicious food, and fabulous company! Not to mention beautiful basenjis.

BOOSTER ANNOUNCEMENT!
Canada By Arlene Bacon
W
ell, it has been an interesting spring and summer. We had our BCOC Specialty 2012 and congratulations to all the winners and participants. Members came from all over bringing great ideas to the Annual General Meeting. Unfortunately, some of our members couldn’t attend because of ill health. Best of wishes and speedy recovery to them. The weather wasn’t too bad, either -- at least no torrential monsoons! Sanda Allen is working on the Regional Specialty that will be held at Farran Park in Ingleside, Ontario on the September Labour Day weekend. Sandra has put together some great awards, and a special guest attendance prize. Sanda has plenty going on and with other members helping, it should be a nice weekend. More information can be found on the Basenji Club of Canada website under newsletter at this address: http://www.basenjiclubofcanada.com/BCOC-Newsletter.html. We will also hold a booster in Abbotsford, BC in conjunction with the Lower Mainland Dog Fancier’s club on October 28, 2012 at the Tradex Center. There are also some great prizes here including an Egyptian Chess set with a leather board and African animal pieces. More about this great booster can also be read at the above web address and in this magazine. The summer has been hot and humid with no rain for the past three months, until this past week, for the Niagara area. But it still wasn’t enough. We need a huge torrential full day of rain. My 10-foot deep pond, usually with a stream running through it, is just about dry. It has been too hot to really race or show dogs. We went to a CARA Race Meet on July 7-8, and the dogs really didn’t put a lot of effort into running. With the 100+ temps we’ve had here, I would hate to see what the folks down south are dealing with! As a 2013 National Specialty Fund Raiser, we are going to make a cookbook containing a collection of recipes from across Canada and around the world from our own BCOC members and basenji fanciers alike.
THE COOKBOOK WILL INCLUDE 9 SECTIONS: • Appetizers & beverages • Soups & salads • Vegetables & side dishes • Main dishes • Breads & rolls • Desserts • Cookies & candy • This & that • Our basenjis favourite food stuff

Judge’s Critique ~ Basenji Owners & Breeders Association 18th of March 2012 By Mia Löwbeer, Judge
T
Photos by Mia Löwbeer
hank you to the Basenji Owners and Breeders Association for inviting me and to all the people who made my stay so spectacular. It was great to meet up with old and new friends. A big thank you to the basenjis and their owners who came and showed under me. A warm and big thank you! I took the opportunity to stay a few more days in UK to catch up with friends. Glen Dymock, Afrika Basenjis, Australia, (though they don’t breed anymore) works at the KC in London, so I visited there and was let in to the arts museum. Fantastic paintings are hanging on the walls. Whenever you have time, go there. It also happened this was the week after Crufts, and when I was standing there the BIS trophy came back, so I could actually pat it. I guess that is the nearest I will ever come to it! Off from London up to Oxford to meet Jill Avis, Mjara Basenjis. She judged the Swedish Specialty show in 1996. We met up at Pitt Rivers museum. The Pitt Rivers Museum cares for the University of Oxford’s collection of anthropology and world archaeology. They have a lot of things from Africa and the Congo. We found this beautiful dog that was donated to the museum in 1938. I spent the night with a former colleague of mine, and in the morning I was picked up by Lisa Tyler from the BOBA. The show was in the lovely little village of Alconbury. I spent a few hours before the judging with Cyril Wright, the husband of the late Catherine Wright. We had a lovely walk with his ‘senjis around the village. Then it was show time, I had a nice entry. The breed has certainly gone through a change since I was there in 1994. Borders have opened up allowing new blood to come into the country. I will start with a general critique and then a few short individual ones. Size, shoulder layback and outlines were satisfactory. Shoulders actually have improved. I have a few major concerns with feet, overall condition, movement and heads plus pigmentation! I am wondering if the feet problem and movement is due to the lack of overall condition. I felt that so many of the exhibits were unbalanced and did not have proper body control. Is it due to lack of training? Or is it due to lack of proper physical training? What do I mean with this? This is just my speculation, but I have a feeling basenjis of today don’t get proper exercise
anymore, meaning long walks on a lead, free running and restrictive training. Basenji are built for walking long distances with their masters in the deep jungle and then suddenly exploding into a fast gallop for a shorter time just before the kill. Walking stimulates the longer muscle fibres and the fast gallop the short ones. Perhaps quite a few basenjis today live most of their lives in the garden and are taken out for shorter walks. Life is more hectic; we don’t have the time to walk several hours a day! On the lead in the ring several had a problem settling and were bunny hopping around; when on a trot they could not move on a straight line, legs were all over the place. Then when they settled and concentrated a little it sure looked better. Are bad feet only genetic, or is this also due to less exercise or exercise on only soft or hard ground? I guess it is both; the foot needs to walk on several different types of surface to develop the arched toes and stimulate pads, also sinews need work to be strong to keep the foot and pasterns together. Movement was quite hard to judge due to the very short time the basenjis showed a steady trot. Have to mention my best veteran; she was sound as a bell all over. Just fantastic! Heads are another worry, as in many other countries as well. There were round staring eyes instead of that very distinctive expression basenjis have when the eyebrows are wrinkled and the eyes have that penetrating look. Muzzles were long and lacked cushion. Quite a few were lacking nose pigmentation, and that really takes away the cleanness of the head. That is also a problem which seems to spread in the basenji population worldwide. Genetically, you need to breed to it to get it. One of the prettiest heads on the day was on a 12-year old veteran dog. So, are we losing it? I was very pleased with my winners and feel the BIS puppy and the BOS will have bright futures. My BIS is already a proven winner. Congratulations! When looking in the catalogue one sees a lot is happening in the breed with new influences, and that is a healthy sign, but also look after what you have before it is lost. After the show I went to visit Tom Rabbitte, Wodella Basenjis in Manchester. Tom owns one of Avongara Luka’s puppies so this was of special interest for me. Had a lovely stay with a nice walk with the basenjis and a visit to the pub to have fish’n chips! Tom drove me all the way to the airport. Thank you! England is always England and I just love to visit! Thanks again to all of you who made my stay a special one.m
