  • He's so handsome!

  • We have had many adventures and many more planned this summer so look forward to many more photos! =)

    Here are a few photos of Dudes housemates, cats Hana is the tabby and Mamba is the tuxedo…



    And here are a few of my horse I had until college and living on my own, Toby the National Show Horse (Arabian x American Saddlebred)
    Someday I hope to have another or rather, a few more…


    We also have 3 freshwater aquariums… Im an animal junkie =)

  • Awesome, I am an animal junkie as well, glad to see I am not alone, although my hubby seems to think I am.

  • Great pictures thank you for sharing. Your little guy is very handsome.

  • He is super cute! My girl was born on Christmas too!

  • Great pics!! I love the little black spot on his tail, how neat that is. Great looking pup

    Love all your other critters too, they are all beautiful

  • Thank you all for the wonderful comments, we think he's the greatest thing ever. So much fun and always entertaining!

    I beleive a lot of our red/white basenjis do have black hair on their tails, I am told it indicates the possibility of producing tri colored offspring if bred properly. Commonly referred to as 'tri-factoring'

  • What a cute boy! Thanks for sharing these lovely pics!

  • They are very cool pictures…........and a great name too!

    Not a fan of bowling are you?

  • Bowling, I wouldn't call myself a fan… Do I sense a 'big lebowski' reference coming on? =)
    We decided on Dude after weeks of name deliberation, trying so hard to pick an unusual, awesome name... We called him little dude in the meantime and it stuck, lol... It fits him perfect, such an easygoing goof... And I'm pretty alternative, skateboard, snowboard, surf, rock and underground hip hop music, camping, hiking, road tripping, tattooed little spitfire... I think a basenji was the perfect choice for a puppy, lol

  • It was a 'Lebowski' referance!

    Tattooed spitfire! - With an ace dog, is it me - or has it got a little warm in here?

    Great pics!

    Yes, that is correct, breeding to a Tri colored or another color with the Tri Factor and you can get Tris.

    I have always used a dremmel, then a finishing file to smooth. But on dogs with really dark nail, it is nearly impossible to see so I do a very small amount and check,drill, check .

    I think I see some of the basenji ears, especially in the second picture. I just want to grab them and rub them good! :) It's most likely that there is at least a black lab there too. Also it may be not the first "mix". If it is a generation over there may be more then one mix in there. But either way, Lilly is adorable! :):) It's awesome that she has a good forever home now.

    Can see all the pics now. What a good idea to let the younger Basenji spend time getting used to your cats. Trouble is if it were me i dont think i'd want to give her back :D

    Yes, I know what you mean. Cairo now has a full set of big teeth and is learning bite sensitivity.
