Eastern Ontario/Ottawa Valley Basenji Owners

Basenji Talk
  • I'd forgotten how hard it is to entrust my semi-special needs boys to an unknown commodity but have recently moved & must attend a destination wedding.

    I have 3 rescues: a 'normal' female, a male who's terrified of strangers and an extreme flight risk, plus a visually impaired youngster. The female & timid male do best sharing a kennel in non-free range facility with experienced staff and excellent security. The puppy wouldwould be happier in home setting with lots of humans, including older kids…he'd knock down or scratch a young child, plus he's a door Bolter.

    If anyone knows a warm, experienced super-secure boarding kennel, or if you'd be interested in baby-sitting the youngster in exchange for similar care for your B, let me know!

    She's gorgeous - Probably Basenji in there somewhere, yes, Beagle though ? only the colouring might suggest it. Try a DNA test if it really matters !

    @EMurata said in Advice for potential basenji owner: The "weather permitting" part of your statement wont work with a Basenji. My dog doesnt care if its 100 degrees out or 10, she needs constant exercise. If outside exercise isn't available for whatever reason, mental exercise is a good substitute. Basenjis are very clever and if you keep their minds busy it often serves to minimize or avoid destructive behaviour. You are not going to wear a fit Basenji out by walking him or her a couple of hours a day, but I have seen them perfectly content to kick back and relax after half an hour of demanding mental exercise! Clicker training can be useful here.....

    We take Harley to Lansdowne Park, behind the baseball diamonds there's a fenced in Dog Park. How long have you had your Basenji?
