Hello from Wyoming

Member Introductions
  • Here is my first Basenji, 10-month-old Pokey, in the attached pictures. We live in Wyoming where we don't have many neighbors who have seen a Basenji before and he delights them all.

  • Welcome to the forums! My gang and I here at Haus Annandael in sunny Denver, CO say hi to our neighbor in the north! :)

  • Glad you made it over Feebee. I'm the one who gave you this link on the other site. You'll find LOTS of great info here. Somebody will ask you where you got Pokey from because we like to know who we're related to via our dogs. ;) I have 3 badsenjis and one crazy malinois. If you ever get down to colorado, let us know.

  • Cute pup. Love the photo behind the blinds!

  • Very cute puppy!

  • A big WELCOME to you and your new little monster (just kidding!). We all know basenjis are perfect. :) I too love the pic of him poking out from the blinds.

  • Your puppy is adorable! The picture behind the blinds is priceless - and odd from my point of view, because my girls, within reach of a venetian blind, have and still would tear them to pieces to see out! Needless to say, we had to replace all of them, and they are all "half-mast" forever to protect them from being destroyed.

  • Welcome onboard..and yes..those are great pics..the blind picture like said before..priceless.

  • Welcome!

    Yes, the blinds, my B does the same thing. I have roll down shades that he likes to climb around and walk along the curtain wall. It's tough for him to get out though and it's always entertaining watching the struggle. :D

    I often get to Colorado!!! We moved here from Fort Collins, although my husband was in Grand Junction with his job. His job is moving us again to North Dakota.

    We got Pokey from a breeder in Utah.

    Hahaha! Pokey too has destroyed them all! We have resorted to replacing them with cheap $5 ones until I find something better :)

  • Glad you found us!

  • Welcome to our pack - you'll find lots of great information, training and feeding tips here for your little beastie (I mean basenji :))

    You will find a lot of new friends here. Do you need the site to order the cheekswab? You order it and do it at home. Very easy!

    I look forward to your pictures. I'm a technophobe too - I keep telling myself I can do it but so far haven't posted any. One of my bitches was spoiled for the show ring by such a judge who didn't know how to approach a hound (although he was a Saluki judge and should have!). She was experienced at showing as well but was traumatised because when she backed away at his front on, silly voice approach she nearly fell from the table! Of course she blamed the fall on his approach. I worked on her intensively but to no avail. Yes, Basenjis on the whole are friendly and they never forget a friend either!

    Welcome and kudos to you for helping with rescues! It sounds like Kowboy was a great introuction to the breed. I'm sorry for your loss of him and Indy. this is a great place to share and keep memories alive. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a speedy relocation back to your family in CA!

    I live near the mountains in Colorado. There are some great trails with open space all around to let thme run around. Gosh I'm so jealous!! We don't have any plasce we could let our pooches loose. I would love a big open space sans any basenji prey :) that way they'll come back
