ANANSI

Basenji

23.12.2009 Today Loa has celebrated her second birthday!! Few pictures you can find under Photos. Besides that she got 4 stepbrothers and one stepsister in OldLegend's kennel!!!

4.11.2009 This Loas heat was very quick and really real for the first time. We had 2 progesterone tests (11th and 14th day) and found out that next winter we will have to pack our bags and leave to Sweden as soon as Loa starts with heat. She is ready for mating after 1st week of heat.

20.10.2009 Today Loa came into heat for the fourth time. In the next 3-4 weeks we will visit a veterinary for a few times for hormone tests, so that we will know when to go to Sweden next year.

22.9.2009 As you could already see under the litters, we have chosen the father of our first litter. He is red/white, with health tests and he comes from Sweden. We have also started to collect reservations for the puppies, so if you are interested in our combination, please feel free to contact us!!

21.9.2009 Today we received the results of thyroid and hips tests. Hips were rated A1 and thyroid is normal.

7.9.2009 Yesterday Loa was on her first lure coursing competition. The competition was international (under Eurocup) and it was taking place in our country. There were 57 dogs from 8 different countries. Loa was doing excellent! She was the best basenji and number one Slovenian dog in field.

10.8.2009 For the weekend we were on two shows in Montenegro and Loa become Montenegro champion!!

31.7.2009 We were at the vet on Loa eye tests and we found out that she has totally clear eyes!!

29.7.2009 Two days ago we had a female dog visit in our home for the first time. In our care came Loa's best friend Dory and we were little sceptical how Loa will react. But we were pleasantly surprised. Loa was acting great! She was very hospitable and she shared with Dory everything and they were playing all the time. There were some tense moments at eating time but after that thay were best friends again. After 6 hours of playing (with just few short time outs) and crazy walk they finally fell a sleep. So, Loa behaved very well and I am proud of her!

20.7.2009 Welcome on our new homepage!

What does the word ANANSI means: Anansi is a spider and it's one of the most popular animal tricksters from West African mythology. He can change his appearance to look like a human, a rabbit, a fox, or any other animal. He is sneaky, tricky, cunning, clever and sometimes mischievous. He's also known as creator god who made the sun and the moon, and hit upon the novel idea of day and night.

Many Anansi stories deal with him attempting to trick people into allowing him to steal food or money, or something else that could turn a profit, but frequently the tricks ultimately backfire on Anansi.
