@jordandwilly - Thanks for clearing that up.... 9-5 is just fine, IMO.... I work and have always had to leave mine when I was at work, never an issue. That said, we were able to set up the house that access to the backyard (with 10 to 12' privacy fences) with a doggy door and a dog room in the house for them, Locks on the gates so there is NO access for anyone. Dogs sleep 90% of the day so being at work doesn't bother them... never have mine even when I had a litter in the house (And have been in the breed as owner/breeder for 35+ years). You can hire a dog walker to take them out mid day..which is a good solution. and give them a mid day meal depending on their age. I do not and never have used free feeding, period. Especially if you have more that one... you never know what/who is eating what. And you can set up camera's on line to watch them from "afar".... LOL. Keep in mind people that many of us need to work and have day jobs. The most important thing is the time you need to spend with them when you are home. Example would be, if you have young children and you work... when you get home you are going to spend your time with your human children... NO dog would be happy if left out... they need their time also because they are a family member and need as much time as a human child. Again in my opinion
Baby-Basenji and two big happy labs
-
She's beautiful, whats her name.
I like the stacked pictures, i try to stack my Pup even though we're not showing her but i'm not very good at it
-
She is Itury Puzzle Laela Limber (Imba at home)
she didn't want to stand good -
She looks very handsome…...
I like her! -
she's very cute. my first basenji had a lab.
-
What a lovely girl. In my experience Basenjis get on with giant dogs and vice versa so I hope she soon merets your Great Dane.
-
Imba already met Great Dane, it was quite good to see that. The big one thinks that basenji is some kind of dog toy, but plays with it very carefully. I have no photos of that meeting because girls are run everywhere in the house very fast. All photos that i get is too bad.
-
It always amazes me how gentle these giant dogs can be . My Kangal (although not as big as a Dane) always crouched herself as low to the floor as she could - the Basenji puppies used to crawl in and out of her mouth!!!
-
I'm pretty sure you will have no trouble with the Great Dane either! I've had Great Danes in the past, and they are a gentle, loving breed which seems to adapt to anyone new pretty easily.
-
OK that little face when she is sitting is absolutely adorable!!!! she is so lovely.
-
Great pictures!!!
