    @Dagodingo said in My pack in upstate NY.: @DebraDownSouth Another thing which seems to be a common trait is the basenji back leg stretch off the couch, I am guessing you have seen this one before too? [image: 1466604677229-image.jpeg] Oh yes, my boy used to do that all the time! Definitely a Basenji favourite. I also have lots of "under the blanket" pix of mine too. I have a throw on one of my couches, and if Perry considered it to be chilly, I would often have no sign of a dog when I returned home, other than that strange hump in the middle of the couch, completely covered up. After a time he would realize I was back and emerge from his cocoon.

    That doesn't surprise me about Chafuko…I know basenjis have great poker faces but there is something innate about some dogs eyes that shows they are windows to the soul. Unfortunately, my little Oakley isn't a window but a brick wall (lmao), but I love him nonetheless. My first dog had that look and he too could sense my childhood seizures and was always by my side when I was sick. I usually find that look in the older ones but even then it's few and far between.

    They do have the cutest faces. Too bad we all live so far away, it would be great if they could all meet each other.

    Thanks for the information on Pet Airways. It is certainly a great option for someone wanting to ship and who might be close to their travel destinations. I hope that that expand one day. But certainly I would consider even if I had to drive to LA to pick them up. Glad that all went well and that this wonderful elder basenji has found their forever home. I am sure that Linda E. is just thrilled. And she looks just lovely!!! Kudos for making this happen

    I might be inclined to believe foxhound if he didn't weigh less than 40 lbs. That And neither a lab or a foxhound have a tail that goes straight up and curls over the back. Whippet is a possibility, but again that doesn't explain the tail curling over the back. Granted his tail is longer and not as bushy as a pure Basenj, but then he isn't pure Basenji. Pugs have a wrinkled forehead and a curled tail, but he has the longer neck and a gait more like a sight hound, and his coat is shorter but not the double coat of a lab, so I am kind of ruling out pug. He may be a big pile of mixes from parents who were mixed. I don't really care what breed he is, he is a great dog. I think I am right on basenji, but if not, it's no big deal. And no he hasn't chewed my underwear. He did chew on the couch cushion where I usually sit.
