Basenji plus another dog

    Hollie is only a basenji mix, but her doggie day care loves to see her arriving, because they have a Welsh Terrier attending day care that is HIGH ENERGY and Hollie is the only dog with the same energy level. I have noticed even small terriers, like a West Highland Terrier, has alot of energy too. Good luck, let us know what breed you decide on.

    I ask this because we are looking for B #2 and want to know which fall into the category for nonbarkless.

    Hollie is a Basenji & Whippet mix… she can bark and yodel!! I love to hear the Barrroooooo -- it's just TOO cute. I only wish I could get her to do it on command.

    @luzmery928:

    Duke and Daisy are B-mixes. Daisy doesn't bark, except when she's in a scrappy match with Duke. If they end up fighting, she'll growl and get so excited that a bark pops out. :D It's very surprising to here a bark out of her. She is Basenji/Beagle, we think. She is so sweet, but strong willed.

    Duke is very quiet, but will bark up a storm when the door bell rings, or he sees other dogs. We think he is Basenji/Jack Russell.

    Vanessa - I'm so glad that Duke has a playmate. Right now, your cat is Chance's only focus of attention. I bet his focus would be redirected to another dog - they play and do everything together.

    Phoenix was very accepting of cheyanne and aspen cheyanne is a whippet so the basenji 500 has nothing on her running stints and aspen is a cattledog/terrier {rat or jack russell} i cant remember what they said, either way he is just very playful and they all got along great the only dogs i have yet to see phoenix not like are the ones that bark at him alot or if they growl and he is with cheyanne. he's cheyanne's little protector lol but other then that he is great with most all dogs big or small.

    Wow! I'm looking forward to seeing that. I can't even imagine Cory and a pet squirrel together. Some years ago a country comedian (whose name I can't recall) did a very funny comedy routine about a squirrel getting loose in a church during a revival and that is what comes to mind when I think of a basenji and a squirrel in the same house.

    @eeeefarm said in Can a male Basenji live with another male dog?: Tamu was considerate of Lady when she started to fail, The Duchess, a bitch bred by us, went to live with a another Basenji bitch. When Tok started to fail, the Duchess felt it her duty to feed her and went miles out over the fields, hunting. She brought back flea-ridden rabbits on an almost daily basis which she gently nosed towards the aging Tok. While she appreciated the deed, their owner didn't like the choice of diet which the Duchess provided for her friend. She was utterly devastated when finally Tok crossed the Bridge at 15 +

    In the video, I do see a lot of basenji traits, but who know... some mixes look like nothing they are really related to. Some basenjis, espec mixes, can be quite large.

    My mum has one of these, though a bit different.A good friend of hers, sadly no longer with us of the Taysenji Basenjis brought it back for her when she spent time living in Zambia many years ago. It will be passed down to me when my mum is no longer here as it has sentimental values and I will never be parted with it.

    my thanks to all of you for your wonderful advice - i will take everything that you all have said into consideration before making a decision - however my wife and i have decided that our grieving over the loss of our 4 year old is not over yet so we are going to delay any decision until we can get past this point - with that in mind, and realizing how difficult these discussions have been for me, i am going to unsubscribe myself from this site until such time as we can come to better terms with our situation - again, my thanks to all of you for trying to help - Manny

    In my personal opinion, basenjis don't get along with most dogs generally unless they are brought up to do so. They are a small package with a big attitude. My dog liked some dogs, others she would have outright wars with, especially if it had anything to do with her territory. My girl had a peeing competition with the scottie terrier across the way from us, every time we let her out, the first thing on her agenda was race off and to reclassify her boundaries! And when the scottie was let out she did the same.
