Bs with large animals

Basenji Talk
  • Does anyone have any input on Bs with large animals. We are hoping to start an alpaca farm and I wonder how Deke might react. Any info is fine I thought maybe someone out there has horses, cows, maybe even sheep. Alpacas are totally non aggressive, they don't even kick, so I know they wouldn't do anything to him. Thanks

    My OJ loves horses…. my Maggii hated them... she would never go near them... OJ on the other hand, left to himself would have most likely gotten hurt running around them... but he didn't chase them.. he just like them....

  • I live in the heart of Amish country in central PA. Storm likes horses from a distance, but he got really skittish when he met one up close. Luckily the horse he met was really even tempered and didn't even flick a tail in Storm's direction.

  • I have Llamas and my b gets along just finr with them at 1st she did not understand them but now she gets along just fine w/ them

    Yep, we saw that one, too (the coffeehouse one). I'm guessing the animator or someone involved with the show has really good taste in dog breeds! :)
  • What funny ways have your Bs woken you up?

    On work days I have to wake up Gossy but on weekends she wakes me up by sticking her face right next to mine and giving me that old basenji mind-meld "I will you to wake up".

    @SyberSade: Thank you Dan (Nobarkus) and Ivoss! You Basenji Forum people come through for me once again! When I get back home (Mesa, AZ) I'll hit the bookstore with my list of recommendations and see what I can find. (I'm flying to Sacramento this weekend to see my son play in his last college football home game….....go UC Davis Aggies!! :D ) @lvoss: Go Aggies! I live in Woodland and am a UCD alum. We will be just down the road in Dixon lure coursing the dogs. FYI Ivoss….........UCDavis won the game I went to see son #2 play in! BUT, last weekend UCD lost to Sac State in the Causeway Classic......which made son #1 really happy because he is in a masters program there. But UCDavis had a great season. I think the guys are pretty happy about it (even though they would've liked to beat the Hornets!). Hope you and your "kids" had a great time at the lure cousing..........I was SO tempted to sneak away and run over to Dixon to check it out..........but couldn't bring myself to leave my boys since I rarely see them anymore. ;)

    I agree about making your entrance and exit as much of a non event as possible.

    @tasha: I'm fairly new to the world of basenjis. My boy is 3. So this may not mean a thing but I've never heard of 'wild basenjis'. Everything I've read and heard says that they have never been wild and have always been domestic/family/village dogs. My sister-in-law and her parents lived in Africa for quite a few years when she was growing up.(Tanzania and Kenya) They said that there were many wild, mongrel-type dogs that had basenji features in their vicinity.
  • Amazing animals!!!!
