My previous males never had an opportunity to meet other basenjis (outside their breeder kennel) so don't know if the experience with my current female is "typical" or not. The first time she encountered another, it was a tri-color older female that was a real bitch and instantly got aggressive (now whenever they see each other its "hackles up"). The first time I took her to a lure coursing event, mine was friendly enough until a little blind female came up and bit her. The second time I took her to a LGRA event, a lady came up behind us (while mine was trying to potty) with her tricolor female and her dog attacked mine. So now hackles go up any time another female comes within shouting distance.
I've discovered why basenjis unstuff furniture!

Sorry if this is posted twice. Thought I posted it, and then I couldn't find it

Nice cave. Good job!

That's an African couch!

I have that couch (passed on to me from my ex)….it's kinda nice to see what it would look like if a basenji built a cave into the back of it without actually seeing it first hand...lmao

Yes, it was a nice couch at one time…not anymore, lol. She was all the way inside of it, just stuck her nose out when I called her name.

I once bought a really expensive dog bed, brought it home and my boy pulled all the stuffing out of it and climbed inside the hole. I was laughing so hard. I've got a picture somewhere, just not digitized. He had great fun throwing and catching all the stuffing.
