Your basenji's tricks

Basenji Talk
  • @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)

    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. ;)
  • 2 B's or NOT 2 B's…. That is the question!!!!

    I'm afraid If I do decide to get another I won't have a chance to introduce them beforehand as it Will probably be a puppy I bring from the US.. I doubt there will be a problem since she will be a young puppy…
  • Maybe he's not a Basenji…!

    My Basenjis catch and kill wasps and have never got stung in doing so - their snap and release is too quick for them to get stung. However one did get stung on his foot when he trod on a dying bee. Often Basenjis get frightened of a particular thing when they sense their owner's fear. Are you afraid of wasps, Shelley?

    BBOB-whew! So glad that you've done some homework with them. We've had too many abandoned B's lately that I can't bear it anymore. Like Andrea it depends on what they've gotten themselves into during the day like pretty flowers, grass or flowering trees…then I'm in trouble. :)
  • Hahha all about the basenji's
