Hello forum friends! We have recently welcomed our second basenji to our home! I would like you to meet 'ono' our new baby girl!
My 14 month old b, 'dude' ran right up to and started piling his toys up in front of her wanting to share the moment she came home… I am so glad that he is as enamored with her as we are :)

She is very pretty. Sounds like Dude has been waiting for a friend to play with and now he has found her! Cute.

Ono is a Hawaiian word, used to describe something that is 'the best'
AND happens to be very basenji appropriate :)We hesitated naming her something that so strongly resembled 'no' but we don't use 'no' very much in our training, we say 'hey' to get their attention and then give them another cue to follow when we are redirecting their behaviour.
The pups love the huge costco bed, and I love the great cedar smell :)
