Hello from Austin, TX!

  • Hey guys, I'm Jonathan, and this is my new buddy Kingston. We think he is mixed Basenji and Australian Shepherd (he was adopted on May 5th from an Austin shelter). I am a personal trainer and pedicabber, He is a royal pain in the ass!! But I love him to death. Seriously, anyone else have a mix? How do you not love them all the way to death? 😅 I digress. Apart from chewing on things, he loves to run around and attempt to destroy things. He truly lives up to the Basenji breed, as far as I have read. I'm excited to have a place to learn a little more about his temperament, and especially looking forward to training tips and advice!

    Having trouble uploading picture of him from iOS. I'll figure it out shortly, or do it on computer later.

    Big hugs to you for adopting an older basenji. My heart gets broken when I see the senior b's on the BRAT web page. :( So give Pippi a hug for me.

    First off, Welcome to our site of valueable Basenji information. I have learned so much linking into this site, we have lots of laughs as well. My B, Sahara, crosses her legs all the time, she is such a showoff and often has the regal queen look. I love the look myself, they are such beautiful dogs I must say, not that I am partial or anything. Your Piper is so cute, welcome again.

    @WriggleysMom: We've always had rescues and I feel like I've missed out on puppy antics, so I'm debating. Toby doesn't baroo or wag his tail and I really miss being met at the door with a welcome baroo and a tail trying to wag itself off!! I had a puppy and was getting the urge for another but now we have a 7-mo old foster and I can't take my eyes off her. I remembered I really did not miss that!

    Dave hello, I also am new to this site. I had my frist Basenji for sixteen years and lost her last year. I could only go for about a month before getting my next Basenji. I really love this breed I have two now. Good luck in your search for your next Basenji.
