Are there any Lehigh Valley, PA area Basenji owners who would like to have a playdate

    I live in the Lehigh Valley area in Pennsylvania, and I have an 8 yr old female basenji who loves to play & has never met another basenji. She gets along with all dogs, but I think she'd really enjoy meeting a kindred spirit. We also have an 8 yr old English Shepherd (think Lassie), and she spends hours grooming him, but he never returns the favor! They play non-stop & Foxy has yet to meet a dog (or any animal) that she doesn't like. Are there any other Basenji owners in my area that would like to get the dogs together for a play date?

    Hi Tasia. I see that it has been a couple of years since you posted but we are in the Lehigh Valley and have a Basenji mix who would love a play date. He is only 3 years old though, so you know.

    There is a dog park in Bellevue. Is that too far? It’s not usually very crowded. That’s why I like it. Maybe we can wait until the weather is a bit better and not so wet! My cell. 4122511212. You can message me

    I think Joan said she has talked to you before. We have 1 10 year old female from Indiana and I think a brother of your younger one - Bourbon who is also 1.5. Joan takes them to Snyder almost daily so if you plan to be there let us know when. Dave

    Find a good positive reinforcement puppy class, like clicker training and you will both have fun. All of mine have earned at least a rally novice obedience title and love the training. There are some things that you should not expect of a basenji such as being outside off lead. They are sighthounds and must be on a lead or in a fenced area at all times. The biggest issue with a house with children is that the children must understand the door can never be left open. My inlaws have a terrible habit of wanting to stand in the doorway and talk as people leave. I have to shoo them outside so the dogs do not try to dart outside given the opportunity. We have had ten basenjis since our son was two, he is now 27 and the basenjis raised him.

    Anyone interested & available to meet this weekend? Weather looks best tomorrow (Fri) or Sat. Also looking like the weather will be good next Fri & Sat. I'm willing to meet at any of the parks we have been considering on this thread (West Chester, Phoenixville or Oaks) Also, if you're interested, Wagsworth does a FREE Saturday stay & play (which just means you stay with your dog while they play - rather than dropping off for day care). Chase had an unexpected "sleepover" there Monday night - brought him there to play just for the afternoon & then couldn't get back because the roads were so bad from that unexpected storm. We missed him, but he LOVES it there - a treat for him & a little break from him for our sweet little (neurotic) border collie! Cindy
