Your basenji's tricks

    @SenjiShowgirl:

    • go, zumi go! - and that starts a B-500!!

    Cricket's cue for starting the B-500 is "no, no, bad Cricket! GIVE THAT BACK!!!" :rolleyes:

    Dolly's cue is somewhat like your Cricket's - but we don't have to say anything, all she has to do is see Bob with the Dremel! We then spend the next 10 minutes chasing her around the yard until she finally boxes herself into a corner.
    The only reliable trick any of ours have now is "Shake" before they can get out of the bathtub - and yes, they do shake when given the request! (Notice, I did say request, as it's pretty useless to command a Basenji)

    @margiem Interesting link! If true, the basenji helps in the lion hunt, by impersonating prey and not by being the hunter...

    Are Basenji's okay with Hamsters?

    Short answer- NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Basenjis are hunters and most will do anything in their power to get to the critters in their environment. Mine spend most of their outdoor time looking for chipmunks that live under the shed. If you decided to get the hamster it will have to be kept in a room where the basenji can't go. I have and do keep basenjis and small animals in the same house but they aren't allowed near them. I don't think they even know I have the geckos and snake! Some dogs are fine with small critters but I personally would not let them near each other. It's not worth the risk in my opinion. Accidents happen in the blink of an eye! Also, rats make much better pets for kids than hamsters. ;)

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D

    Hi Vickayx, First let me say Dolce looks adorable. Her white face only makes her look distinguishd. As far as I can determine the only thing mentioned in Basenji Standards is that white should not predominate for her overall appearance and from what you have written you really dont seem to be planning on showing anyway. Years ago I bred Rodesians to show but as I got older I decided that what I wanted most was a little snuggle bug and went to rescue B's. spacicfically those who had had a hard life before me. We now have 2 four legged children who are always rooing to show how happy they are. Enjoy your new baby and remember to try and not let her know she is smarted.
