My Rosa wrote the "How To Be a Basenji DIVA" manuscript - as many rules there were, it was so worthy of a 'script' at the end! She, and all her offspring, had spring and fall heats, but I only bred her once in the spring. That produced one puppy, my Captain. She always ruled over her pups, except when Captain came along - she did what HE said when he was about 2 weeks old!
Basenji 101
-
I was just alerted to an upcoming episode on Animal Planet's Dogs 101, in which the Basenji will be spotlighted:
http://animal.discovery.com/tv-schedules/series.html?paid=15.14743.130247.39951.x
Currently scheduled to air on October 2nd.
I don't have a television, so I hope they'll upload the clip soon. Do we know any forum members who will have their dog(s) on the show?
-
One of the Basenjis that will be on belongs to Laurie Gilchrist, Tammen Basenjis in Maryland.
-
Thanks for the info, will look for it.
-
Marking it down in my calendar!
-
Finally! I watch that show all the time and have been waiting forever for them to do Basenji's

I am just waiting for Cesar Millan to do a show with a basenji in it. Guess it won't happend because lots of Cesar's methods probably wouldn't work with a basenji.
-
Thanks for the info. I will have to DVR it. I try to catch it when I can but it comes on Saturday here and college football takes precident in our household.
-
On the commercial they show a banjo, chortling for a quick second
-
Basenji not a banjo !!!!:mad:
-
I actually wrote a comment on Cesar Millan,s newsletter but never got an answer asking wether he had any experience with basenjis because I thought the same thing, I don't think all his methods would work on basenjis
-
I am actually dreading this. Basenji's have such a undeserving bad rep, and I would hate to see it strengthened with a bad 101 video.
-
Marking it down in my calendar!
I checked Animal Planet's listings for the show, and cannot find that basenjis are going to be on. But I did the checking using the 'guide' feature on my TIVO type unit. Maybe the info is not up to date there. Will check the animal planet website.
-
Found it! I think the info on my TIVO guide just did not list all the breeds, and being a basenji lover, I was hoping the whole show was going to be on basenjis. Ah well, you take what you can get.
-
Is Dogs 101 pretty much a redo of Breed All About it? I found the old video they had of basenji http://animal.discovery.com/videos/breed-all-about-it-basenji.html I wonder how it'll differ, can't wait to see it thanks!
-
I hope it is accurate.
Time will tell.
