Just received the DNA results from Embarkvet.com - not a drop of Basenji in Lucy's gene pool. She is 46% Pit, 23% Min Pin, 7% Chow, 6% Siberian Husky, 6% Rottweiler, 6% Boston terrier & 6% supermutt. Even though she's not in the Basenji gene pool, this is a great forum as she seems to have a number of B traits & behaviors. I find all of the advice helpful. Thanks everyone for your input!
When basenjis help (or not)
-
Wow, how nice!! Very beautiful!
It's funny.. I was thinking.. where have I seen something like this before…? Now I know: Tillo's breeder was also doing this
-
And B's can be very helpful.. when they just don't do anything!
-
Oh my!! I would be interested in purchasing one of these too!! They are beautiful!
-
That is adorable! I too would be interested in purchasing one!
As for your pup checking things out….I bought Shango a stuffed animal basenji that I found at a local petshop (its adorable and looks just like him!) he he does not like it….he looks at it apprehensively and will raise his fur....it's so funny!

Where did you learn this craft?? I do a lot of needle work and would love to learn! It is so cute! Isn't Zest just so helpful? At least he didn't grab it and run like mine would have!
-
I like one of these too. Please ?
I'm waiting in line !Greetings from Belgium
-
Are you taking orders? How much? I'm interested.
-
See what you started?? hahahaha

How precious! Put me on the list to get one also haha!

Uhm, actually I do have some woolies for sale and am happy to do commissioned works, but I don't think we're allowed to sell things on this site? And I know there have been some problems with pm'ing. BUT I am the only Kim McNeill in Colorado in the BCOA membership roster. I'd be happy to put more information, but don't want to break any rules put forth by the admin's. It such a nice board they've created for us.
You can see some of my other woolies here:

the berner was a memorial piece and I used some of the departed's fur. I'm not sure that would work well with basenji hair, but i can match markings.As far as other works, go to etsy.com and put in "needle felted dog" or just "needle felted". There are lots of nice works on that site.
If you're interested in creating your own (and that's lots of fun!), try your local library or these links:

There are several ways of felting - knitting then felting, wet felting, machine felting and needle felting. Enjoy.
