Sticking up for mommy

Basenji Talk
  • Well I have a 12 year old daughter and at times she gets a little attitude when I ask her to do things. Well the other day after we ate I asked her to put her dishes in the sink and she got a little snobbish with me. I asked her to not talk to me like that and just when she looked like she was going to answer me back Champ turned to her and gave a nice long loud baroooo. I interpret it as hey stop talking back to my mommie! I swear he's just an amazing little sweetheart. After that my daughter and I couldn't help but look at each other and crack up, she then called him a kiss up.:D

  • They are funny little dogs. When my boyfriend and I are messing around Alani will do a really loud short Baroo to him. She's always on my side it's awsome.

    Well isn't she a sassy little thing? Thanks so much for the information. I had not heard of this one at all. I will Google it to get more info and find where to purchase! Deb

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.

    We use ones from Rukka. Not sure if they’re available everywhere but they are they best ones we have tried (others always fell off, especially in deep snow). I think having two Velcro closures on each sock has been key. I also prefer the soft shell ones as our B seems to accept them more and they don’t twist as much as the ones with a hard sole. Here are the ones I am referring to: https://rukkapets.com/paw-wear/thermal-shoes-black

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.

    EL D will occasionally sleep partly on the pillow (when I'm not in the bed). Usually though he sleeps totally under the covers (actually his own sleeping bag on the bed).

    I buy in bulk from Bullysticksonline.com, you have to buy a lot at one time but the price is good and the quality is excellent (no odor). If you can share an order with a friend or two it isn't too bad, winds up being about $3.50 for a "deluxe" 12 inch stick. I used to cut them in half, but now I leave them whole, as I take away the last inch or two, I realized I was wasting some. I buy a box about once a year, and give them out every week or so. Anne
