Hello, everyone!

  • Hello! I just found out about this site. Our family's basenji, Aladdin, is 15years old and his health is not good any longer, but growing up with him (I was thirteen when we got him) sure taught me a lot of love for these wild and independent dogs. He's a funny dog and has a great personality; he's suffered a stroke and so he does not do many of the things he used to, but he still can sing to us when he's happy. And that's just the happiest sound in the world, isn't it? I'm in an apartment right now that doesn't allow pets, but when I have my own place I'll certainly get another one - though NOT another puppy.

    Anyway, just wanted to say hello!

  • Hello to you from Belgium-Europe and welcome.
    We are just about leaving the house now to go and see our first B puppy ever at one of the 3 B-breeders in Belgium !
    Expect to see lots of pictures one of these days on the forum !

    Welcome. Yeah destuffing is a fave activity with many of our guys. Please share a picture of your dog! What about him makes you think he is a basenji mix?

    Welcome to the Forum. It sounds as though this 'protectiveness' has been going on a long time. I agree that probably it would be best to get help from a behaviorist but make sure that they have experience of Basenjis. In the meantime keep him away from your guests. It's possible that he's stirred up by the excitement so it's best to try to keep him calm when people are around.

    Where in Ontario? I also live in Ontario and know of litters and puppies. Same thing as dmcarty. You can click on my name and then on my website, or go to the BCOC website @ http://www.basenjiclubofcanada.com/ Depending on where you live, I may know of someone close.

    Do you think he may be reacting to the big change in his family - the loss of both your ex and his basenj companion?
