25.01.2022 This is Astrid, she is ready for adoption to an approved home only. Astrid is 2.4 yrs old, super active, desexed and fully vaccinated. Please let me know if you are interested as her human's lifestyle circumstances have changed, and Astrid needs her next furever home.

20.01.2022 Dream of Afrika is expecting a litter very shortly, pictures of pups will be posted soon.

20.01.2022 Critique from Basenji Specialty 2019. Opposite Limit in Show. 2nd 30. Notsyoranala Wulkguni, AKA "Asti" Brindle bitch with a feminine head, but her ears could be higher set, and she could have more wrinkle. I would like a shorter body. Well set tail with a nice curl. She moves well. STATE BRED DOG 1st 10. Notsyoranala Nugan, AKA "Aray" Nice dog but I wouldnt want him any longer. He has a good head, good front, nice feet, level topline, good hindquarters, a well set tail and he moved well.

12.01.2022 -Liver & Pancreatic function of Dingoes, and Why They Require a Raw Diet- Dingoes are very different from domestic dogs. You may already know some of their beha...vioural differences or their physiological differences. But did you know that dingoes are also very different from domestic dogs in their nutritional requirements? Indeed, dingoes are even unique from other wild canids when it comes to nutrition. For today, we're taking a look at these: 1) Liver function / Fat metabolism 2) Pancreatic Amylase / Pancreas function _______ LIVER FUNCTION & FAT METABOLISM: Domestic dogs require different quantities of fatty acids in their diet than dingoes do. Both domestic dogs and grey wolves convert saturated and monounsaturated fats into energy, their metabolism and liver processes fats efficiently. In a dog's or wolf's diet, fats are essential for the health of arteries, cell membranes, omega-6 to omega-3 balancing, the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, thermoregulation and more. Dingoes on the other hand, have retained their primitive canid liver function and metabolism, which is adapted for the unique Australian climate and environment. Dingoes cannot efficiently metabolise saturated or monounsaturated fats, they require only very small quantities for optimal bodily functions. Consuming the same quantities of fats as a domestic dog can cause increased fats in a dingo's liver, fatty liver disease, thyroid function issues, pancreatitis, immune system and mineral imbalances. __________ PANCREATIC AMYLASE Pancreatic amylase is a digestive enzyme for digesting carbohydrates. In humans, carbohydrate digestion begins with salivary amylase. Later, pancreatic amylase is released into the small intestine to digest carbs and begin the production of glucose. Whilst neither wolves, dogs or dingoes produce salivary amylase at all, they do have varying copies of the AMY2B gene (pancreatic amylase). Wolves and dingoes have 2 copies of this gene, while domestic dogs have between 5-20. This means that these canids can digest small amounts of carbohydrates as a survival mechanism when meat is scarce. But what about Dingoes? Dingoes, like wolves, lack adequate enough AMY2B gene coding to be able to safely handle starchy carbohydrates (grains, root vegetables -such as carrots, pumpkin, sweet potato- most processed foods). The tropic dingo ecotype may possess more copies of the gene, which may explain why they are able to consume more fruits. There is insufficient data on the precise nutritional differences between the dingo ecotypes at present. Dingoes fed high fat, high carb diets have around half the life expectancy of a dingo fed a species-appropriate diet. They may also be more prone to bouts of pancreatitis and liver complications. __________ A MAJOR CONCERN A dingo fed a domestic dog's diet will show increased lipase levels in their blood results. Whilst we are so grateful to all the studying and work veterinarians do, unfortunately vets receive little nutritional training (and it is not dingo specific). Low-protein diets are one of the most frequent recommendations to dingoes who are showing increased fats in their liver and/or pancreatitis. The problem with low-protein dry food diets: They're extremely high-carb. And as you've just learned, dingoes cannot digest starchy carbs. Sadly, it is very common to hear of dingoes with increased fats being put on a low-protein dry diet, only to end up with pancreatic issues as they cannot digest these carb-laden foods. The protein is not the main problem in these cases. The problem is a combination of the poor quality of the proteins in a processed diet, along with the high fat content and these fats having become rancid or oxidised. Combine this with the dingo's unique digestive system and nutrient requirements... and you can hopefully understand why issues occur, despite the best of intentions. _________ SPECIES-APPROPRIATE DIETS FOR DINGOES: We advocate and encourage a properly balanced raw diet of lean proteins, digestible bones and organ meats. Following the Prey Model Raw (PMR) ratios of 80/10/10: 80% muscle meats, 10% digestible bones, 5% liver, 5% other organs meats. How much to feed? Around 2-3% of your dingo's ideal adult weight is a good starting point, you can increase or decrease the amount fed as you observe your dingo. Variety and rotation are important in a raw diet. Some of the best lean proteins to feed your dingo include: Kangaroo, Rabbit, Venison, Camel, Goat and Turkey. With Beef and Chicken in moderation. Avoid pork and lamb. _______ Transition Guide for Switching Your Dingoes to a Raw Diet: https://www.facebook.com//a.19427860693/1942795499312581/ ________ Raw-Feeding For Dingo Puppies: https://www.facebook.com//a.19427860693/1947108542214610/ ________ References: -AMY2B genome sequencing study: http://journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/article - https://www.nature.com/articles/hdy201648 Behavioural Ecology of Inland Dingoes: Hunting & Feeding, diet: https://www.researchgate.net//240505670_The_behavioural_ec -Books: The Dingo Debate, by Bradley Smith.
