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.

    You had me confused and then I realized you meant the write up on the other rescue (Okapi)… I like less white also. So I had to go look... wow, coloring reminds me of minpins. :) Cute dog though.

    The question about the doggy smell is a good one - basenjis do not smell like dogs. If you stick your face right into their fur the comparison is like sticking your face into a nice clean healthy cat - warm and not really a discernable smell. Except their feet. Their feet smell like Fritos sort of.

    I'm originally from California so that is where we got them. I will have to ask my mom if she knows anything about their breeding. They were both over a year old when they came to us. The male was an escaper. My parents had to add an extention on our 6 ft wall because he would jump it. Even then he found a way to get out. We couldnt figure it out for the longest time how he did it. He had found a window upstairs that didn't latch, he would nose it open get on the roof then jump to the wall and from the wall to the ground. The male in pic is prob just sniffing We were working on that bedroom so there were alot of new scents. I cant recall him ever barooing. The female though was very vocal. After talking to my mom, I don't have any more info. Both dogs were given up by their owners because they became to much for them to handle. Alphy the male was a handful being an escaper, Lady was a great counter surfer. Alphy liked all dogs and people. Lady only liked people. But other than that they were sweet and loving dogs.

    We got Killian from a breeder in Ohio–-Jim Edgerton. That's where he had gotten our previous male basenji. We took Logan and Jasmine to his place and looked at several 1 year olds and a puppies and Jasmine eliminated the others and we agreed with her pick.
