Thinking we're half basenji

Member Introductions
  • Hey Everyone,

    Just recently adopted a new pup - well he's 7 months now and i've had him for 2. It's been suggested to me and after reading all these posts that he looks just like a "B" but he's all black (maybe some lab???) and exhibits so many of the "B" behaviors. This is my first pup and he's proving to be a challenge but we're learning together. I'll add a pic soon enough and maybe we can get to the bottom of it. Thanks for having us! Everyone has such beautiful pups here.

  • Welcome to the forum JackBoy…we'd love to see pic's ... I have a red and white basenji mix also, she's 5 months old and a handful...This is deffiantly the place to be for information or just fun reading...Hope to hear your stories and see pic's soon

  • Welcome Jackboy
    My husband and I have a red and white Basenji boy 4 1/2 mths called Bandit and a 2yr Lowchen boy called Alfie.
    We are revisiting obedience for Alfie for first time training for Bandit.
    We are walking 2 a day with haltis now and what a difference it has made to our walks. Instead of having our arms pulled off, the boys have progressed to walking beside us…. Hooray... and oh so enjoyable.

    He is definitely a cutie! Great to hear he is doing well in the crate. Our Loki still does not tolerate his well, but Kaia doesn't have problems. They've been in the bed with us from day one. Made potty training so much easier, we all bonded incredibly quickly, and I never move as fast as I do at 2am when someone starts heaving…. Enjoy puppy time. It goes by too quickly!

    @wizard: They look like they are perfectly matched - and neither one looks "fat". I have uploaded the contrasting photos. Go have a kick

    Yep, we do agree on most things (bossy? or boss?)(both I think-it has something to do with me being a control freak-I like orderly fashion). True there are some dogs/bitches that will just not get along EVER. If I do leave with dogs that typically don't get along-grouch,snarl,sneer,etc.-I'm sorry-but they're separated. Either in separate rooms or crates. If you can't get along when I'm here, then chances are you won't when I'm not!! I did train other people and their dogs (notice I put people first) but as you say-meager. Now I just train my own, the occasional consult and focus on grooming, and the B's. I would love to make a living with just dogs, but, alas, that is really hard to do!
  • Do you think Lucy is a Basenji mix?
