Hello to everyone...Thank you for your great comments about Mr Biggles, we also think he is very special. We live in South Australia, and it is very interesting to see all the beautiful dogs being shown off in this forum. Mr Biggles was aptly named due to being a biglet as a pup. If anything that belonged to us was in his reach it was certainly not worth while worrying about after he had finished with it..only pieces left, if he didn't want them, we learnt very quickly to ensure everything precious to us, other than him😂 was well out of his reach.
He certainly was a handful the first couple of years, I always refer to that time as like having a set of twin 2year olds, on red cordial. I found that being very very constant with him worked well. He is a very structured guy, and has been very easy to train once we got through to the end of the tunnel 😌. You certainly do need a sense of humour, would not own any other breed, the antics our guy gets up to continues to be entertaining...he certainly gives us a great deal of happiness. I hope everyone enjoys their Basenji as much as we do.😘
One week with Gambit
-
Gambit is one of the smartest and friendliest puppies I have ever known, that said she is going thru the puppy teething stage right now. Her breeder warned me that she liked to chomp on his toes. I find she really prefers a good nyla bone and is quite easily channeled onto good behaviors. Her favorite thing to do, is to go with us for rides in the car, such a pleasure after our whippet who shakes and drools the first couple hours even at age 4 This weekend we are going to Hutto TX for an AKC trial, a nice long 12 hour drive in our tiny RV. Will see how she likes that. I know she will appreciate the 70 degree temps vs our 30 degree, wet weather.

My husband just sent a few photos, this is the first time Gambit has been outside as its been cold and rainy ever since she got here. Look like she is enjoying her time with the big brothers.
