Can you spot the basenji


  • I know you can…but he mussed up the covers, carefully placed the stuffed animals, and put himself to bed like this it was too cute. Turin thinks he was pretending to be pack leader of his stuffed animals (placing them all around and sleeping in the middle is apparently an alpha thing to do)...whatever it was it was really cute.

  • Way cute..thanks for sharing.


  • Did he actually fall asleep like that, or was he just playing??? Too funny!


  • Really cute!


  • So adorable!!! It's amazing how these dogs can sleep :p


  • Too funny! He looks like King of the Crate! :-)


  • Toooo funny :D :D :D


  • He was dead asleep in this photo


  • I filled Lola's crate with stuffed animals today, hoping she'd do the same thing. No such luck.
    Very cute


  • Lol..Indi has always been wierd about his stuffed toys. When we first got him at 10 wks we would let him sleep in our bed alone when he was napping. After a few days of this he would take his stuffed animals and put them down for a nap. Bring them to our bed, put them down, cover them with the covers just like we did for him. It was funny for a while because until I figured it out I would walk by the bed and say "Huh… how did that get there" put it back in his crate and then a half hour later when I went back in the room there was the stuffed animal taking a nap again.

    Its good hes so cute


  • Great picture! I hope I am not being indiscreet but I live in France and cannot find crates as big as the one on your picture, are they easy to find where you live? Do you know if they can be ordered and sent to Europe? I must sound silly but I have spent a lot of time looking for a good crate for my basenji and haven't found one yet. Have asked in pet shops, they are horrified when I tell them it's for a dog!!!!!in other words…back to work soon and worried already about the dammages in my appartment when I'm not in!!!!!
    Sorry if this comment is not appropriate and indiscreet, it's not meant to be

    Hi Christiane,
    If you contact me privately (you can go to my profile and then to my website to find my email address) I can give you the name and email address of another Basenji owner/breeder in France. I think that maybe she might be able to help you out with your questions about crates.


  • Thanks a lot, I'll do that right now.

    …stuffed animal taking a nap again.

    Napping! That's what those stuffies are doing! I always thought they were playing dead, hoping their B master wouldn't tear them apart for their coveted squeaker organ! ;) :) ;) :)


  • Thats a great picture of Turin. I had to do a double take just to find the guy! He really hid himself well


  • very cute!


  • I love it! Classic B behavior! Makes me wanna rub his belly.

    I agree with the others that although he seems to have Basenji in him - his head is def. not Basenji. As for the leg I'd have it amputated if it troubles him - He'll cope with 3 legs I'm sure, but certainly consult a specialist first. Please keep us updated.
  • How many basenjis can you spot?

    Oh Gosh yea. I have one outside on the porch because when charlie was younger he would try to climb up on it. He was never bad like Zaire is at the dinning room table so I haven't switched over inside, but the cafe style deck table totaly keeps Charlie and Zaire from even getting onto the chairs. I LOVE IT!!!!!!

    Thank you very much for the info. I will have to try the time out. He was crate trained as far as being house broken, but now when I put brownie in the crate all he does is whine.. I do have 2 older dogs. one that plays with him and the other, well he just growls at brownie. The mother that was there when I got Brownie was a white shepard, maybe that is where the broad nose comes in.
