Capt. Jack For Sale

Basenjis For Sale or Wanted
  • I have been away from the forum for a bit of time due to work and well since we have our 2nd B, my hands are really full at home but I decided to come in and check on my old basenji friends. I remember when you frst announced ur pregnancy and have followed you through the whole thing and reading up on Jacks attachment and behavior with you. I came on and was sad to read that you had decided to give him up, though I do agree at that time, it was best and now I'm so happy to read things are working out. I wish you the best and look forward to reading more updates. Best wishes!

    ew. :p

    Maybe it's a re-establishing of his "ownership" of you, since you went away with "the new guy"?

    Just a guess…....

  • Just curious, what does Jack do if you put him in a large wire crate?

  • Mounting is usually a sign of domination. He could be seeing himself as the alpha, trying to re-establish the pack order ?

  • he quit after about and hour. Thank goodness, he is SO random and weird somtimes…If i put him in a crate, he paws and bited the wires until he gets out or makes himself bleed....and he SCREAMS the whole time....

  • @Barklessdog:

    Actually, many people in research no longer feel that mounting is usually a sign of domination. Though it can be a sign of domination it seems to be used in many other situations including as a stress reliever.

  • hahahah..I'm not laughing at you I'm laughing with you, Sally does that same thing to my son. Yes she is a girl, and extremely shy, but when my DS comes home from school she sometimes does that. We just laugh and she stops. We haven't tried to fix it, because she does stop once we start laughing at her. Poor thing she just loves her brother's. Strange still the same!

  • Sorry you have to give away Jack. I hope you are able to find him a great home.

  • A lot of times dogs also mount as a way to initiate play. Most B's hate water and you can use a squirt bottle to get their attention, and possibly stop their mounting. One of my alpha females (until she was recently spayed) used to run around and mount all of my male dogs, she would even follow my service dog around and attempt to mount him when she was in season. Now that was a site! A Basenji trying to mount the head of a Thai Ridgeback. Bruiser would just look at me w/his pleading eyes saying "please help me MOM!" as soon as she was spayed (or came out of season) she would quit. I think she just wanted them to know she was (and still is) boss.

    Breeding once a year actually is not a problem health wise. Breeding to produce pets for income… not so much.

Disagreement is fine, but attacking another poster personally will get you in trouble and result in a ban from the forum. But he started the fight by attacking me! Can't I defend myself? This is a forum for the discussion of Basenjis, not a dueling society. If you feel attacked, please report it to the admin and then ignore the poster, respond to another thread. Remember, however much you were provoked, if you attack a poster personally then you are just as guilty of breaking the rules. Why can't I tell a poster that he's breaking the rules? This board has a moderator. Telling other people what to do is rude, derails the conversation even further and often ignites flame wars. Please just report the user to the admin and move on.
