Basenji Talk

Very nice work Basenjibratz! They look totally comfortable! And I agree that once the basenjis are used to other dogs, and have a chance to acclimate, often things go quite well. It is that initial interaction that often goes so well! You have done some great work.

awesome story!!

Luke barks sometimes…Usually when someone knock into the door, or when somebody opens my door when it closed...

Basenji seem to be the masters of the non-verbal put down. And I also agree with Basenji Boy's comment, reminds of that bumper sticker: the more I know of people, the better I like my dog. What is the correct plural of Basenji? 'Basenjis' or 'Basenji'? A Yodel of Besenjis?

@Mantis: can you guys post pictures of your elder basenjis…. how many dog year vs. human years? 7 That cant be the same ages for basenjis....Maggii would be 112 years old. Let's try 5-6years for every human year? That would make Maggii 85-102yrs old? Does that sound right? Maggii is my avtar (the red and white) Mickii the tri is 14 1/2… I will post some pictures later...

All teary about this..THANKS for sharing :)

We just have two- but I LOVE everyone's basenjis… love those pics!!

Ours actually stopped within the last two years and she's 5, so it did take a while!

Jojo tries to catch bugs especially if they are bothering her but she misses a lot but sometimes she gets one…I don't like it when she goes after a bee...I am glad when she misses those...

Thanks for all the info! I especially liked the one with all the pictures!! Sure makes me wish I had another B.

I do not think so. It's from the music group Gorillaz last CD booklet.

By the way, if you read this bill, it also says that you can NOT sell your puppies from that "one" breeding, you have to give them away among other requirements…. Please folks I urge you regardless if you are in California or not, write a letter against this bill, what happens in California is the "poster child" for the rest of the country...

I love the one where you are carrying him and he is looking over your shoulder! Too cute!

My husband was afraid that Cooper was "my" dog at first, but things really evened out after we went through training as a family. Now, Cooper is attached to me during the day (when I have days off), and glues himself to Geoff after dinner every night. He still walks and rides in the car better with me, though. And I'm the only one who can brush his teeth!

Sorry-can't access says access denied.

You could also try the small RC cars. The B's really like it as well as this little helicopter thing I have. They also like my furry blue pig-but they can't have that one!!

Until last night which THIS IS REALLY GROSS….. Cairo expressed his anal glands as he relaxed on the couch. Ceasar began licking his bottom to clean him.....I mean, GROSS.... I suppose we have a visit due to the anal gland fairy.... And I was getting my bath right before that!! thank god it wasnt after:eek:

I have a doggie door for Sahara and it has been great so far, Knock On Wood, haha!!!!! I have underground electric fencing and I feel secure that she will not cross it. She has been shocked testing it a few times, but not lately. She stays in and out, and there are days that she stays outside alot, depending if my hubby is home working in the yard. I work days and my hubby works nights, but sometimes he is busy and leaves the house for a few hours. I do wonder when I come home what I would do if she was not here, but I see that sweet face laying in the driveway waiting patiently for me to come home.
