As one well known judge said, "Zizi has the most dynamite front
and rear I have ever seen on a Basenji" Also please note the well laid back shoulder
and great topline! Zizi has a dark red coat and an affectionate, fun-loving temperament.
Zizi's show career began with 4 majors, and a Best of Breed win on the
5th day. Zizi has 'Major Style' and is truly an "all around Hound": proven on
the field, in the ring and as a house companion. Zizi won a the Compendium Award at the
Turkey Field Trial by defeating the most Basenjis in 4 days of trials plus having a higher
overall score. In the 80's, Zizi was among the select few with multiple Group placements,
as well as being a Field Champion.
Even at 6yrs of age, Zizi had a superbly sound stride. His gait is
swift with reach and drive to exhibit a long smooth effortless stride. He has true Basenji
movement, for he is properly balanced and possesses moderate angulation front and rear.
Zizi's rear is strong and muscular with hocks well let down and long second thighs. He has
angulation both at the point o hock and at the stifle. He flexes the hock joint well out.
His forearm and shoulder blade are of equal length and angulation.
Sadly, Zizi was released from the mortal coil in 2000, and now runs the
green, green Elysian fields. He never came down with any diseases and simply succumbed to
geriatric comlications.
