Hi to all

Member Introductions
  • We are new to the forum,but not basenji's. My husband has had basenji's for 35 years. When we married 8 years ago he came with a senior basenji and I a elkhound. Sadly old age claimed Oreo's life at 15. We now have two basenji's a 3 year old red and a 2 year old tri. I have gained alot of knowledge over the years and really love this breed. Its not hard to do that. My elkhound has been with basenji's so long he now acts like them. Not many elkie traits left.
    He even sleeps with his leg in the air every now and then. We are lucky as they all get along. Just wanted to say hi to all

  • Hi there! I'm sure you'll have fun here-my boxenji sleeps the same way!

  • Welcome!! How funny about your Elkie :)

  • My mixed breed Missy is getting that way but I don't know what kind of dog she is but if you saw her tail you would say Basenji. That is just tooooooo funnnnnnnnnny

  • It's funny how the other dogs become Basenji's!! Not the other way around!

  • Welcome to the forum. Can't wait to see pics of ALL your dogs.

    I think they just look solid so my mind saw "bigger." I have one of the Wimaumau rescue giants (44 pounds), but even my 2 previous gals were far from petite... about 26 to 28 pounds. My dream of a petite 18 pound basenji just never happened, lol.

    A tired Basenji?!!! Joking apart, I agree with the previous posts. It is really important that she doesn't get something for nothing as Wizard advises make her work for it. Welcome to the Forum to you,Teagan and the others.

    Thanks, I will pickup some SAM-E at the store today, I had no idea what dose! I hope Pete has a comfortable time with you, you are doing everything to keep him happy. My friend's mastif-dobie mix has very high liver enzymes, she is 10 and otherwise looks great. She is slowing down, sleeps a lot but has good appetite, etc., he opted for no more tests (at her age, he would not put her through any treatments other than meds). She loved the liver-cleansing diet, is back on regular now and taking Sam-e; like you, he is just hoping for some good quality time with an older beloved dog. Hugs to Pete!

    Luzambo, I too had one pass last March. After that I was left with one and said once he passed, I was going to be done with dogs – too much of work and emotional strain. Yep, I was going to be free to... well, to do something. Then I found a little girl related to Brie just 2 weeks later and 6 months later I have yet another. Yes, they're a lot of work at times, but so is most everything in life. I love having them around and the house would be often boring otherwise. I'm sure Pharaoh and my Brie are hanging out in their private club looking down on us saying "what are you guys doing down there?" And with a signature like yours, I don't think you'll be waiting long. Welcome to the forum!
