Basenji walk

Show Off Your Dog
  • Yesterday we had a Basenji walk organized by our club. It was a big succes! There were six intact males and two intact females and not a growl was heard. They were all off leash and had soooo much fun! Even the meetings with other dogs went OK! It was lovely to watch and I was very proud of Tillo, who was also showing his best behaviour :)

    Job took some pictures:

    This looks like the perfect place for a pee…

  • Fabulous pictures! I especially liked the jumping shots, and the picture of Mirtillo looking regal in the forest. :)

  • so much fun to see so many R&Ws (that's my favorite color) :)

  • What a gorgeous group of Basenjis. IMO, Tillo stands out as usual, maybe it's because he has such distinctive wrinkles - I've noticed some B's kind of lose that wrinkled look as they grow up.

  • What great pictures :)

    I love seeing that many basenjis having fun together :)

  • Wow, really nice pictures. Miss my forest walks with my Dad when I was back in Holland.

  • Lovely pictures and wonderful to see such a large happy group.

  • All these beautiful pictures make me want to move to the Netherlands… Last winter you took a picture of rows of trees in the snow that I still can't get out of my head...O to dream...

  • Thank you all for the nice comments :) It was such a lovely walk, I'm happy we decided to go. Normally I'm a bit worried about all those B's getting together.. But they proved me wrong :)

    It was a beautiful sight! We got quite a lot of positive comments. And the R&W's are my absolute favorites as well :)

    I remember that picture as well! It took my breath away. I am not sure who took it (Janneke or Job), but the composition and feeling the picture gave made it so remarkable.

  • great pics :) as a photog for a living nice to see killer pics :)

    also love the log jumping ones both technical and subject :)

    so does Moyo like to ride around on shoulders then ? thats pretty funny :)

  • Job got some wonderful photos of your outing. Looks like all the dogs had a great time and got along, obviously all well socialized, as well as gorgeous.

    She is really cute though I don't see Basenji. Like Shirley said, only a DNA can tell you much for certain.

    She was only 16 pounds when I took her to the vet last but I know she is more now. She was also malnourished when we got her, she is gaining weight but she is still skinny. I made a photo album with some better pictures. I'll add more as I'm still searching through pictures on my camera to find some side views. But right now I'm off cause she is complaining that I'm ignoring her and not throwing the ball! :)

    @Lovelace: Really? What ones? I don't know of any that have all the criteria? I've done extensive research on the breeds, and i'm curious I don't recall any. I think Pat means lots of dogs have one or more of these traits. Those three things all together MAY be an indication that the dog does have some basenji in it…but not for sure. Because the dog could be a boxer/husky mix...and end up with right color/markings, pointy ears, a curly tail, and have wrinkle on the forehead (lots of dogs have wrinkles around the face). Rat terriers are notorious for looking like Basenjis...but the shape of their head is slightly different, and the breed was founded using some Basenji way back. Another thing to remember is that after several generations of mixing, all dogs tend to go back to a natural or pariah dog shape...squarish, brown, pointy ears, slightly curled tail...that is just the natural phenotype of "dog"...so a dog might end up looking Basenji-ish even if there is no actual Basenji there. I am not refering specifically to the OP...that dog does look like it might have some Basenji in it..or Rat terrier...but it is REALLY hard to say for sure. It doesn't matter really, because everyone is welcome here...Basenji, mix, B-look alike...welcome...

    Thank you very much for the info. I will have to try the time out. He was crate trained as far as being house broken, but now when I put brownie in the crate all he does is whine.. I do have 2 older dogs. one that plays with him and the other, well he just growls at brownie. The mother that was there when I got Brownie was a white shepard, maybe that is where the broad nose comes in.
