I have an alpha female basenji and brought a newborn into our family. I was in the hospital for four days (my in laws stayed with dog and horse), when we came home, we had my Mom bring her new boyfriend. He was a great distraction, but also allowed me some alone time with Cricket. When they left, she noticed the baby in the bassinet and was a bit concerned.
She adapted to the baby, but I don't leave them alone just in case. Cricket is not nearly as jealous as she was, now that he drops food for her at the table, but she did get a bit jealous for a few weeks.
While I was pregnant, I was told that 'the test' was to play baby crying videos on YouTube. How the dog reacts will tell you how they will interact with the baby. Cricket beat the crap out of my phone when I tried… So not a great test! đŸ™‚
Basenji-pulling

Hailey is in season at the moment, so we have to watch closely because we don't want to breed a Basenji x Ibizan hahaha
I was feeding Ryan and I kept Buana next to me (Ryans feet were on top of him hahaha)
Hailey was sleeping on the couch next to me.
Kas took Chafuko with him into the bedroom, he was changing the sheets..
The next moment, I heared playing sounds and after that…Kas came back into the living room, Chafuko sitting down on a big sheet and had a sheet of a pillow on his head...
Both had so much fun.. Kas pulled him trough the intire living room, Chafuko sat down like the king... baroooooing...hahaha
I become sooooo happy when I see them playing around
-
Kas was giving Chafuko a "sleigh ride." I bet that was so funny to see.
You have such an amusing pack!

Oh, I wish there were pictures involved, sounds like they had so much fun.
Otis loves playing with the sheets if I am changing them, but I have never thought of pulling him..might have to give that a try.
