Basenji Christmas songs?

Basenji Talk
  • Okay, all basenjis love "Baroo Christmas." Yes, I know I have too much time on my hands. Can't think of any more right now anyway!

  • A preface….
    Our dogs ring a string of sleigh bells when they need to go out.


    Sleigh bells ring. Are you listening?
    I have to pee. The snow is glistening.

    A beautiful sight, yellow snow in the night.
    Be careful in the winter wonder land!

  • That is hysterical! I hope you'll write some more.

  • I'll bar-ooo for Christmas,
    You can count on me.
    Don't like snow upon my toes
    All presents are for me.
    Christmas Eve will find me,
    Where the love light gleams.
    I'll bar-ooo for Christmas,
    If only for some treats. :D

    There ya go, a basenji version of I'll be Home for Christmas!! LOL

  • Now that one's destined to become a classic!!

  • LOL …u guys sound so fun! I love Basenji ppl ...we are all so great! loltwiddles08@hotmail.com :)

  • Hi Twiddles, I had intended to write a Basenji Christmas song but have been too busy to do it. I'm hoping to do something for the New Year. This was a great topic, wasn't it?

  • sure was! lol so how are you? How many Bs do you have? I want to have another one sometime…but idk where to find one! lol even if I dont breed my dog, I just want the commpany of another B cuz she is 7...yes i accidentally put 5 on another part, but she is 7. So i dont know how much longer she'll live! Im scared...I love her to death!!!!
    Good talking to you Lenora
    ~Whitney (Have a Very Merry Christmas!)

    Looks can be so deceiving- here is an article of a woman who adopted a rescue dog in N.J. Dog looks like a basenji - even her vet thought it might be basenji. She did an Embark DNA test - no basenji. Turned out the dog was a mixture of Mountain Cur, Rat Terrier, Beagle, and Boston Terrier. link text

    Where I am it costs about $2K+ for a dog from a breeder for just about any breed. Goldens may be less because the litters are so large. That may seem like a lot, but, as Debra mentions, dogs cost money to care for. After vet bills and boarding fees and food, it matters little what the dog cost to acquire. Leaving true puppy mills out of the discussion, given the costs of being a responsible breeder -- testing, vet bills, feeding -- and how much work breeding is, I can't imagine anyone doing it for the money. That leads to two problems for people looking for dogs. One is that since breeding isn't really lucrative, there aren't a ton of breeders, which means the supply of pups is low. Second is that most Basenji breeders want to place their pups in the best possible homes -- remember they aren't doing it for the money -- which means they're looking for people who have had Basenjis before. Something of a Catch-22.

    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

    My Rue is pretty perfect. She is mixed with something (I don't know what) so she doesn't look like a real B… and she isn't interested in anything in our house (chewing wise), doesn't bolt out the door, and licks like CRAZY! She also doesn't really like to play with other dogs at the dog park, she just smells them, occasionally chases them, then comes back and lays down by me (EXERCISE DANG IT!). The only normal B behaviors that I see in her are the little noises that she makes (she makes a lot of them for different reasons) and her BAROOOOOOO (which is fitting because we named her Rue before we even knew she was a Basenji) and it seems like she is stubborn about sitting. It's like she is saying, "yeah I know you want me to sit, but first I'm gonna spin around in a circle. Then maybe I'll sit if I feel like it." Haha! She is a character!
