Basenji folks in alabama

Basenji Talk
  • hi, i noticed that we had a few members from alabama. i was wondering if any you owned or knew who owned a dog by the name of mugsy the mug? my sister had a pup out of him and when she asked about the parents they had been sold to someone in alabama, they never found the contact info for her. its a long shot but i thought i would ask here for her.

  • Hi Ambered, I don't know about that particular dog. I bought Abbey two years ago from Mike McAnnalley in Morris, Alabama. He bought the father, Playboy, from someone in Missouri, but the mother, Guinivere, was rescued from someone locally who was about to make a puppy factory out of her. I don't know of any other basenji breeders here.

  • lenora, i just read your profile, funny. my mom is in alabama, a nurse, and enjoys celtic music, she even took a trip to ireland recently.
    this dog was purchased in south florida, there was a female too. cigar bugsy, i beleive is the name. they would be about 6 or 7 nowadays. i was just curious what happened to them. i did check the zande pedigree search, there are no others pups registered. somewhat of a relief, so no one does this

    but the mother, Guinivere, was rescued from someone locally who was about to make a puppy factory out of her.

    i knew one older couple in dothan that had a few basenjis, some were show, mostly rescues. my mom is in abbeville, she just has pets now.

    I'm not sure why your pictures are not showing up. I'm going to experiment. [image: 1467823614030-bathtimex.jpg] O.K. that seems to work. I dragged and dropped it and I see it. Now to check whether others can also see it! This is a picture of my two girls, taken a long time ago......probably in the '80s. I am wondering if the picture you are trying to upload is too big. Trying that now. I am not seeing the picture I just uploaded, so that may be the problem. ![0_1467823932526_Bathtime.jpg](Uploading 100%) Yes, I think that is the key. Downsize your picture and I bet it will work properly. As you see, I get the same uploading message that you did, but no picture, when I try to upload a large file.

    There's nothing like a basenji in the works, from the way they instinctively lay with their had on the bum looking the other way ( I've never met a B that doesn't) to the way you KNOW they all rub on wet towels or play bow…it's all very endearing and in this breed you often identify traits that they all have, an insight into their genetics and their behaviors. I've never enjoyed a breed so much.

    I read your blog and find it kind of confusing and ….. your comment about "messing with ..." hmmmmmmm.... Anyhow, yes, it is so cool when you come across another basenji, because they totally understand each other and how they want to play. We were fortunate once to have another basenji play chase with Kipawa at a dog park. I just don't think there are many basenjis in the Lower Mainland. :(

    Oh Barklessdog, you are a brave person. I must now stand with you in insane-solidarity and admit I bought it too. It is awful but when you get the line "we couldn't say goodbye so we took him home" part, you know you got to help support the woman. lol

    lol usually when you breed a bigger dog to a smaller dog the Male is the tiny one. Its just dangerous to do it the other way around. As far as DNA breed testing I would go for it if I could. But i am just interested in those kinds of tests. We offer them at our clinic but i haven't ever seen results for them.
