    I used to have a basenji who would chase a plastic bag I tied to a "wand" around the yard. He seemed really in to the "bunny" so I took him to a couple of lure coursing events in central FL. It was wonderful to see the dogs running and so hard to hold my boy back from joining them. At the end of the day, we were able to do a straight out and back run to see how he would do, and he was great. Not long after, 2 guys that I placed a basenji with rigged up a reversing motor and set up a very small "lure course" in their back yard! There were about 12 of us there with basenjis and we let them chase the bunny one or two at a time. It was great fun. You do have to be careful not to run them too young, or too hard without conditioning. My current basenji gets to run like crazy at the dog park (it's huge and everyone is very impressed at his speed and agility) and at the baseball field (when it's not locked up). Slents: I loved your video! Thanks for posting it. I hope you eventually get to attend a lure coursing event in person - it really is something to see!

    Great pics!! Same reason I always get nervous if Shera wants to play with fluffy dogs - she chases the tail and the fur always ends up in her mouth!

    @Kananga: Hehe, Buana looks like he's trying to keep his paws clean. He really wanted to hold onto it but knew it would get his paws all dirty. How often do you feed them raw food like that? I've been thinking about doing that with my B every once and awhile. Well, raw like a fish or a pigs nose/ear or someting similair we give them once in a while. When we see someting that looks really fresh and delicious (fin the B's eyes of course) we'll take it. We bought the last tima some baby chickens but they didn't eat that.. (it's to furry I think) Snake food like frozen mice or rats (healthy and especially for food, not wild rodents!!) the love it.. Here in holland you can't let them eat road kill, it's often poisened or sick. @AndrewnShango: Oh, I am just in love with Chafuko! He's awesome!! :D We hope so much, he'll get daddy in a few years when al the health tests are good!!!

    OMD! That's the biggest bean bag type of pillow I've ever seen. Those pups must be in heaven! Well maybe not heaven. Heaven would mean the main human bed. BUT those pups look like they have a great comfort right there. Great pixs!

    I am a teacher and the computers at our school have this. The kids absolutely love it, and they make some really cool stuff!
