Basenji-pulling

Basenji Talk
  • 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 :D

  • 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.

    @melduff I for one think this is FANTASTIC news! You guys are so lucky! You have a one of kind super dog with the papers to prove it. Walks around the neighborhood and trips to the dog park are going to be very much fun... Friendly neighbor: Oh, she's so cute! What kind of dog is she? You: Thanks you so much. Why, she's a Staffy Chow Lab Rott Russell Husky. (Ya haff ta memorize that) :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :thumbs_up: Thanks a bunch for letting us know. Very much enjoyed your thread.

    Where I am it costs about $2K+ for a dog from a breeder for just about any breed. Goldens may be less because the litters are so large. That may seem like a lot, but, as Debra mentions, dogs cost money to care for. After vet bills and boarding fees and food, it matters little what the dog cost to acquire. Leaving true puppy mills out of the discussion, given the costs of being a responsible breeder -- testing, vet bills, feeding -- and how much work breeding is, I can't imagine anyone doing it for the money. That leads to two problems for people looking for dogs. One is that since breeding isn't really lucrative, there aren't a ton of breeders, which means the supply of pups is low. Second is that most Basenji breeders want to place their pups in the best possible homes -- remember they aren't doing it for the money -- which means they're looking for people who have had Basenjis before. Something of a Catch-22.

    @Thana: she does have basenji characteristics then apart from her colours and looks.- i also think she must have some basenji blood! She is lovely and lucky no matter what! adorable little face:))))) Having read about the characteristics I think she does. The lady with the basenji that we met also commented on some of the things she was doing as "very basenji" (eg. standing on her back legs so she could see what was going on). Has a lovely wrinkly forehead too. Got very frustrated with me earlier and did her funny bark, more of a wierd howl really. She is def one of a kind. Its a shame we have to have her spayed (not that I could ever justify letting her have a litter).
