@zande I know that I’m lucky to have found him! I hope he feels that he lucked out, too. Actually, I don’t care very much what “mix” he is. I had just never heard of basenjis before my Vet mentioned it. He doesn’t have a long tail - it seems to have been clipped. The barking is only when he hears someone approach my apartment door or if someone comes in that he doesn’t know. I’m working on desensitizing him to the latter. He DOES make noises like the dog in the videos below make & he grooms himself quite a bit. He DOES NOT play with toys. Don’t know if that’s breed specific or just Jack! He also isn’t too active; he’d be happy to sit on my lap or with his face in my arm pit all day!
Basenji in an ad

Here's a Basenji in a Foster and Smith catalog.

I've seen that a bunch…I get the catalogue in the mail and someone posted that on here a while ago.

Nice find.

I saw that the other week too, when I was scouring the catalog looking for at least one B pic..nice.

If I ever got that, I would never be able to get Medjai to use it. He'd just jump straight over it.

Haha! I know, right? I was thinking the exact same thing!

I bought one for my older B Nika when she was 15-1/2 and she wouldn't use it or just couldn't use it. I still have it. Buddy wanted to chew on it.
-
I'm more tempted to get a cat tree before I get steps. Medjai likes the cat trees at the store if I hold them still. He's a little heavy for those things because they're base is so small.

Shouldn't it read durable enough for basenjis, ha ha
