Basenji sitting on other dogs' heads

    Do your Basenjis sit on your other dogs?
    It's been established that my Bailey is a little pill, but she does the strangest thing when she is annoyed with one of the other dogs, she'll sit down on top of the other dog's head. She calmly looks around the room and at me - then gets that "Oopsy, am I sitting on YOUR head?" look. She is a very strong female, and I swear if she could laugh out loud, she would be when she does this.

    LOL! Cody used to do that to Remi! Granted, Remi is 100% Meanness poured into a cute puppy package, so usually Cody did this after he was tired of Remi's antics.

    Remi would be taking a two minute rest break from attacking/pouncing/playing with Cody. Usually he would rest on the cushion by the window. Cody would just calmly walk over to the window, circle around by Remi, sit right on his head, and look at me with his forehead wrinkled so as to say, "Mama, you know you'd have done the same thing if he was going after your dangley-bits, if you had them."

    In the video, I do see a lot of basenji traits, but who know... some mixes look like nothing they are really related to. Some basenjis, espec mixes, can be quite large.

    Love it! I would not even dream of putting Dolce on the back of my bike. Firstly she hates when any wind blows in her face and freaks out when the windows are down in the car. Second, she is such a squirmer I fear she would wiggle herself right off the bike.

    Oh WOW, you guys are sooooo helpful. Thanks DDS for the link, that was especially helpful. I'm just intrigued with this breed for some reason, and I'm not sure why. Reading what all of you have to say is better that the typical things that you read on the computer. They all just repeat the same thing over and over where as all of you can give me personal experiances. I know all puppies are a lot of hard work, but compared to other dog (which I see some of you have had other breeds) are they actually a lot tougher? All pups like to chew and get into trouble but are they especially hard to train. Lets say with housebreaking and such? Oh and for all of you that have cats too, do they stay out of the kitty box or are the prone to make there way there, if you catch what I'm saying. I read they they are very clean and often times will clean themselves like a cat does. Really? And they are aloof like cats? Soooo much info and I would rather hear all of this from you than get false info. HELP!!

    In my personal opinion, basenjis don't get along with most dogs generally unless they are brought up to do so. They are a small package with a big attitude. My dog liked some dogs, others she would have outright wars with, especially if it had anything to do with her territory. My girl had a peeing competition with the scottie terrier across the way from us, every time we let her out, the first thing on her agenda was race off and to reclassify her boundaries! And when the scottie was let out she did the same.
