…in our country neighborhood..

I have never seen it before, but I am sure it was a basenji, rather chubby, tail a little fuzzy, but the "brother" barked and barked..he only wimpered..so funny because it totally perplexed Pippin...he didn't know what to think of it.

I hope I run it to the owners one day..then I'll find out for sure..but this little fella..or girlie was a true basenji look alike..
These dogs were both our in the fenced in yard..so I didn't get too close as it was on private property..

Pretty cool though..
Petra and Pippin

with Otis in my heart…

My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.

@antigone
I didn't "research your pedigree"... I found the woman you said was the breeder.

Brat most certainly does NOT prohibit people in apartments, townhouses, cities or anywhere from getting a dog. I'd really hate for someone to read your misinformation and not apply.

Have you considered feeding raw food (meat and vegetables)? It worked wonders for our B's coat and overall health.

First I would suggest that if you don't trust the breeder to explain it to you, you need to perhaps work on a bit better relationship there. Or find a breeder who has the time, knowledge and interest in doing so. The breeder should always be your first line of information. 🙂

Second I would suggest that while I myself prefer the red and whites, it isn't how I could choose a dog for a pet. If the dark remaining is a deal breaker, perhaps someone here can suggest a breeder with pups that would fit.

Third, gets pictures. We love pictures.

Fourth, BAD BARKLESS! Do you know how hard it is to get coffee off the keyboard and monitor? ROFLMAO.

@Nemo:

how weird. Nemo tried to eat off his martingale collar today. He only wears it when his leash is on. Luckily it is still usable.

Glad to hear Roo is well.

Thanks Nemo,

We strongly suspect that the Vet or Vet Tech loosened his collar when they took it off before his Neuter. When the Vet Tech put his collar back on him, they neglected to check it for proper fit and we never thought about the possiblity that hit had been loosed, so we did not bother checking the fit.

We bought Roo a new Red Martingale Collar the other day and I made sure it properly adjusted. I can just get about 2 fingers inside it. It does not hang down where the leash connects so we do not see anyway he can get any part of the collar in his mouth or lower Jaw. We have been watching him the last few days and we now believe it is a non-issue.

What we did learn is that when we do take him to the Vet, we need to make sure his collar is properly adjusted when we pick him up. I am sure we would be much safer taking his collar off when we are home, but from what I see if the Martingale Collar is adjusted properly it's no longer a problem or concern.

So we will chalk this experience up to owner error. Most likely it was mine for overlooking and not checking the collar after we picked Roo up from the Vet.

@phoenix3:

Looks like a B to me but i think more of a B mix he looks like he has corse hair Maybe be has the size of a cattledog body and a basenji head 🙂

My Aspen is a cattledog/ terrier mix he has the body of a cattledog {the colors} and the height and face of a terrier heres a pic so u can see the colors of the cattledog well one color anyways 😃 😃

phoenix3 - this is Aspen? I'm so amazed at her spots, because my Daisy has spots like Aspens. We know her mother is pure R/W Basenji and she is thought her other half Beagle. One of her other litter mate moms thought Blue Healer (cattledog). But I subscribed to the Beagle. Daisy could be … Cattle Dog I suppose. She's bigger than Duke now at almost 9 months old. I will show her off soon on "Show Off" forum soon.
