  • P. Rossi,

    Welcome to the forum!
    You can make a new thread to introduce yourself. We love pictures!

  • Welcome to the forum Pirjo

  • Since first listing, I have adopted a 16 month old Basenji mix (I think with sheltie somewhere in there). So:

    Me - Susan

    Dogs: Shaye - Basenji
    Gemma - Basenji mix

    Cat: Missy

  • Hi Susan,
    have we seen a pic of Gemma?

  • Welcome to the forum Pirjo. I love the pictures of your dogs on your website.

    Steve.

  • @thunderbird8588:

    Hi Susan,
    have we seen a pic of Gemma?

    No, you haven't seen Gemma yet - attached is picture of Gemma, and another of Shaye. Gemma is lighter in color, and bigger around, and 7 months older than Shaye. She also has a drop of "obedience" in with the mix. Shaye has about decided most of her obedience training was only a suggestion if she was in the mood.:rolleyes:

    Oh - and lest we forget the strongest member of the pack, attached is a picture of the cat, Missy, on our last motorhome trip - she owns the area over the cab, and God help any dog who tries to get up there.

  • Susan, those are great pics. Gemma is very pretty, wonder what her mix is? I love how dark red Shaye is, beautiful and the queen, she looks just like a queen.

    Thank you Basenjimamma! At the dog park, the general consensus among the Basenji owners I talk to is that Gemma probably has some Sheltie in her - she has little "skirts" and her face has that look about it somewhat. Her hair is longer, with a "rufflike" collar. The Basenjis think she's one of them and she certainly "packs up" with them and stays with them.

    As to Shaye's color, yes, we are really happy with how dark she is - I've been told when she blows coat, it will lighten, and then darken again. Whatever, she certainly does think she's the queen. Although Gemma is 7 months older, Shaye pretty much sets the pace and rules the roost. She runs Gemma ragged and is the last one to stop.

    We are very glad they get along so well - as you know, it sometimes doesn't work that way with grrrrrrrrrrrrls. :D

  • Maybe it's better to start a new thread about Gemma.. This one is for telling who you are and which dogs are yours :) ;)

  • Sorry - was just answering questions.:(

  • Susan, lovely pics, sorry it was me who asked you to post them. we get carried away in threads :D

    @MacPack: Dusty is darling1 How great that you ignored the trainer and figured out your little guy. They can be so smart that they "fake it" in many ways, making it hard to realize they are deaf, or don't see well. Kudos to you for being such a great mom! Thank you, I think he's a doll myself but I'm partial. You know with him not being able to hear he is very visual and he will watch TV with me. I find that so interesting. He likes animated movies like the ones from Pixar, I can not watch any program with dogs, cats, horses, cows, bears or basically any animal because he starts barking like he is going to be attacked at any given moment. But if we are outside, and we see dogs or other animals he doesn't do anything. Maybe he is just protecting his turf when he's inside. When I tell people that he is deaf, they always say 'oh poor thing' and I always tell them that he doesn't know anything different so he's fine. If he had been able to hear and the lost his hearing that would be much harder for him. But he's really smart and picked up on my sign language very quickly, so he's happy. I'm happy too. Although when he's being a bit unruly I find myself scolding him then I laugh because he can't hear me. Then I tell him 'lucky for you that you can't hear me mister' and I laugh.

    Whatever she is, she's a little doll. It's nice to know that the displaced pups are finding such good homes.

    Ok now comes the story about Missy. Missy would destroy things around the house, get into the garbage, chew on socks and underwear. Mom would punish her , tell her she was bad, and Missy would go pout. Mom would have to leave her bedroom door shut for a week or Missy would go in and pee on Mom's side of the bed, but never Dad's side. who was punishing who?:p

    Hi! Welcome to Basenji Forums! Do you have any photos of Sahara? It would be great if you can post them in the Show Off Your Dog thread. Let us know if you need help posting your photos.
