LOVED the costume, so it was an easy vote. And, if you're looking to donate food to needy dogs, might I suggest a basenji-related rescue group especially if they give out coupons/certificates instead of the actual bag. I know Colorado Basenji rescue has a glut of dog in right now. I'd imagine Medfly or BRAT are also needy. (I just sent CBR a coupon for a bag of food that Zest won, much to Z's dismay as she was looking forward to eating the entire bag in one sitting.)
Royal dog

Juliana, the mother of the current queen of The Netherlands (Beatrix), had a basenji, Sarah. Probably a gift from her husband Bernhard, who was a real aficionado of all things African. I found a few pictures on the web. I believe it's the 60's and 70's.

Great the see Zara full in the face - interesting that the basenji didn't become very popular, as Juliana was a much loved 'mother of the nation'.

That must be a Basenji's dream, living in Royalty. I swear these dogs cannot be overspoiled, they keep demanding more.

Nice gallery! Does anyone know this Basenji's pedigree?

I think it's awesome that he doesn't stop pulling , so typically basenji, not even for a royal picture!!!!!

I'm not royalty but my Basenji lives like it. (-:

Fula Nzara of the Congo was sired by Fulaflyaway of the Congo and my dogs are related through him. Queen Juliana was a patron of our club - the Basenji Owners and Breeders Association. It was wonderful to see the pictures, thank you for posting them.
