  • It's a bit difficult to translate everything what you all write about your basenji's, but I'm to curious so I'll read post by post.. :D

    I really love to read about all of them because here in Holland there are not so many Basenji's.
    On the shows, there are usually not more then 12 basenji's, so I think after a while my Englisch is very good, thanks to you all!! ;)

    Now about our Basenji's:

    Saturday we picked up Chafuko, the littel Brindle monster…
    When we got home, our cat Spaik did'nt seem to hate him so much.. haha with Buana he sat a couple of days under a closet!
    Buana is very in love, it's a boy again but that does'nt matter..
    They play, and howl against each other!
    We don't think it would go so well!!!

    Both are sleeping now, what do you want after hours playing... :rolleyes:

    I shall place some nice pictures from the two buddy's

    Ow, when I'm offline for a while, then we may stay in Belgium or Germany with the ship. There we don't have www.

  • Glad that Chafuko and Buana are getting along well.
    Stay in touch and let us know what kind of mischief your ship-living dogs do.

  • It's good to hear that your boys are getting along so well. When you do have internet access then you can post more pictures and stories. I'm excited to hear about basenji's on boats.

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D

    I think everyone who decides to have these little furbabies has to make a conscious decison that housekeeping is going to fall by the wayside in some areas. . . for instance it's not real easy to keep carpets nice and clean when they drag their treats and bones all over it! We just vacuum and count on getting in a professional cleaner a couple of times a year. Other than that, our friends just have to understand - we have a Basenji!

    Sounds like a heavenly environment for pups! Yeah, I don't think I'd like to have my b named after a cut of meat either :rolleyes: We named Fiji to sound like her previous name Weegee and she adapted easily. If we bring Peanut home he may become Pinot. Red wine, red dog, y'know ;)
  • I don't own a basenji, but I'm looking for info…

    Oh WOW, you guys are sooooo helpful. Thanks DDS for the link, that was especially helpful. I'm just intrigued with this breed for some reason, and I'm not sure why. Reading what all of you have to say is better that the typical things that you read on the computer. They all just repeat the same thing over and over where as all of you can give me personal experiances. I know all puppies are a lot of hard work, but compared to other dog (which I see some of you have had other breeds) are they actually a lot tougher? All pups like to chew and get into trouble but are they especially hard to train. Lets say with housebreaking and such? Oh and for all of you that have cats too, do they stay out of the kitty box or are the prone to make there way there, if you catch what I'm saying. I read they they are very clean and often times will clean themselves like a cat does. Really? And they are aloof like cats? Soooo much info and I would rather hear all of this from you than get false info. HELP!!
