2 Bs in Leschi

Basenji Talk
  • V

    I saw a guy walking a red & white, and a tri, along Lake Washington in Seattle yesterday.

    I have a friend who lives in the Leschi neighborhood and she has told me she has seen them before. She thinks they might live in an apartment on the Lake. She was walking her Puggle one afternoon and came up on the basenjis. She told the owner she has a friend who has 2 also and I guess the guy was super rude to her. She said the dogs were both super nice, but the owner, not so much.

    Anyway, I spotted them as I was driving and I yelled out the window "there's the basenjis, I have 2 too!!!!!". I am pretty sure he thought I was absolutely crazy, couldn't understand a word I hollered and thought I had no idea what a basenji was!!!!:D Too funny!

    Okay, that is interesting. An 'aloof' owner and 2 outgoing dogs - go figure.

    This was her Saturday night while I was assembling some furniture, she was fast asleep! She's cuddly but was literally under me, it was unusual but now I know why. [image: 1669635577308-tn_signal-2022-11-26-180406_002140.jpg]

    oh - should add that the white pine people have samoyeds and there is no bleed from the collars onto the white coats. and my bearded collie friends have them and swear there is less hair breakage.

    Nemo's on to something. A good B&W could pull that off without an accomplice though.

    I would have to agree with the others. Surgery is pretty tricky especially if the dog is on meds. Some medication is mood altering. If you could possibly wait at least a week to bring in the new dog that would be ideal. Males usually recover pretty quickly and are back to normal within a week. This will give your pooch some much needed rest & healing time. To introduce the dog I would have them meet in neutral territory some sniffing & such & afterwards I would take a nice long long long walk around your neighborhood…like 2hours at least. Let them get used to being together with you on your walks. I would even make it a routine for a while until they get used to the pack order. I would also suggest RULES from Day #1. Establish the rules of the house so both dogs understand that you're the boss & these are the rules...My rules I don't allow the dogs to hoover while I make their meals. They have to be sitting calmly until I'm done. They eat in separate crates & before I put their dish down they must sit & give me eye contact. I do the same for treats and toys...everything is given only if they sit calmly & give eye contact. There's no jumping on me EVER...if they do this they get my back which they hate because they love mom's attention :) Good luck to you :)
