The Dancing Basenji

That's amazing. It shows you what can be done.

Love it! I've never seen a basenji so obedient for so long! :D

That's great! My girl does the part where she crosses between your legs, but usually with a leash attached! :o

[WBL]

LMAO that was great!!!

Here's one w/ a Golden Retriever… its amazing! No offense but it puts the basenji to shame! But I'm sure it was harder to teach the basenji to do what he/she did than to teach the golden his/her stuff!

Wow - I was impressed with both videos. I bet training the Retreiver was far easier than to the Basenji too. I didn't expect to see a B hanging on to attention that long.

My dogs would have been off & running- somewhere else.

WOW!!! That's awesome :) There's someone in our Basenji club that is into teaching "Freestyle"

That was very cute! A couple of my friends do freestyle (not with Basenjis!) They were trying to get me to teach Blondie a routine to 'Walk Like An Egyptian' ;) I think it would be a really fun sport…but I HATE dancing...so I don't think it is for me :)

On another note...Hillbilly Rock and Roll? Can anybody think of a dog that is LESS of a hillbilly than a basenji? (No offense to any Hillbillies reading this...love our Appalachian friends...and I think I MIGHT be a red neck, according to Jeff Foxworthy...I DO like NASCAR!) At the beginning of the routine the dog is looking at the woman like, 'are you kidding me? You want me to do this in public?' hee, hee...very fun though!

Absolutely awesome. I really am impressed at how long the dog lasted.

Love it. I had seen the golden video a couple years ago and though. well of course a golden would be willing to learn that. Amazing that a Basenji actually decided it was worth while to learn that :)
