Hi basenjipeople…

Member Introductions
  • Welcome to the forum. I would love to get my girl in one of those coats…ha ha...so cute.

  • welcome to the forum. The second picture of your girls is fabulous. Look foward to hearing more about them.

  • Great pictures, especially the two together. Welcome! :)

  • Thanks for everybody wishing me and girls over here :)
    Your dogs are (of course) looking just lovely basenjis, great pictures and situations (basenji have just a great sense of humor in different situations). in Finland we have worst winter ever. There is not snow at all, just rain, rain and rain…and DARK! Last two winters have been so much better, picture with the jacket is last winter when we almost drown in the snow. Winter is also been bad and we have had some storms this winter. We are also living in small island front of Helsinki, so it means even more wind. Okey, that's about weather :D

    I don't know how many people here is from Finland, but here is link for the Finnish Basenji sites: www.basenji.fi

  • Love the pics and I also think your English is good… I swear my basenji, Oakley looks at me as if to say " of all places I had to end up in New England"... Which is infamous for its crazy weather and winters... Luckily I bought him some hurtta overalls and winter jacket and that has been a lifesaver. Nice to meet you!

  • ^ Do you mean Hurtta- brand? Are they seliing that brand over there or have bought it some other country? Brand is Finnish. Luckily because of weather is awful. Our jacket is made by Janutec and Pomppa :D love boths because they fit for basenji.

  • Hello and Welcome from Canada!

  • Welcome. GREAT PICS! Love the coat too. Wish I had one with footies so Cara's feet wouldn't get wet! HEY, maybe I could get one and sew on rain boots?

  • Debra, I think you are onto something there! Like a onesie for a B! Make them with grippy feet and leave the bum and underbelly somewhat open so they can go potty. Ohh, I am so on this!

  • with my basenjis treats (something good to eat) and being leader for them in every part of life. hard to explane. Of course depending of dog. I have two basenjis and they are really different kind of, other is sensitive and other is hard kind, so we need two type of training methods.

  • Your girls are stunning.. such beautiful pics you posted.

    @Nancy-Berry The saying is a very true one... when people ask how your dogs are with children, say "It depends.. how are your children with dogs?" Toddler Leora got her little legs smacked more over the dogs than anything. Not training your child to respect dogs, to understand that a hurt dog can and probably will respond, ... well it puts your child and dogs in danger.

    dear muffen hi and welcome :) rescuing a dog is a wonderful thing, i hope this is a good option for you. i know brat has many dogs in florida that are looking for their forever homes. they do a great job of matching dogs to the right owner. disclaimer if you have small children it might be a good idea to get a puppy from a reputable breeder. luckily, puppy season will be here soon and there are a couple of really great breeders in florida.

    Luzambo, I too had one pass last March. After that I was left with one and said once he passed, I was going to be done with dogs – too much of work and emotional strain. Yep, I was going to be free to... well, to do something. Then I found a little girl related to Brie just 2 weeks later and 6 months later I have yet another. Yes, they're a lot of work at times, but so is most everything in life. I love having them around and the house would be often boring otherwise. I'm sure Pharaoh and my Brie are hanging out in their private club looking down on us saying "what are you guys doing down there?" And with a signature like yours, I don't think you'll be waiting long. Welcome to the forum!
