Bailey Basenji

Member Introductions
  • Hello and greetings from (hot & humid) Philadelphia! I'm a new owner of a Basenji -Terrier mix. I hope you don't mind non 'pure-bred' members :) I look forward to learning from all of you. I've had Bailey for about a month and so far so good! She's shedding a lot and I've already found a good tip about the zoom groom from Kong….gonna try it out. Thanx!

  • Hello to you and Bailey.

    We hope you will share some pictures of your dog with us :)

  • Welcome to both you and Bailey (love that name!).

  • Welcome onboard from us down here in (probably) even more humid Houston,glad to have you both here. Would love to see pictures as well.

  • Thanks guys! I will be sure to get some pics out here by this weekend. Also, I used the Kong zoom-groom on Bailey last night and am amazed! The amount of dead hair that came off of her was enough to build another dog :) What a tool…and cheap too. Bailey is a rescue from the shelter where I volunteer and I can assume she was never groomed by her prior owner. She was found wondering the streets of North Philly on her own so it's safe to say she's in a better place now (currently lounging in my air conditioned apt with my cat Polly).

  • Welcome to you and Bailey. It seems as though she is enjoying a lovely home.

    Thanks! I am trying to get ahold of the people I got her from but I lost their phone number…. She was from a farm way up north. They said the dad had wondered over to their house, and they don't know who's dog it was. The son saw it I guess and said it looked like a small pitbull, but I don't think he knew for sure. I really think she's 1/2 basenji.

    Also if you contact the breeders in the PNW listed on the BCOA site that LVOSS posted some may have puppies/juveniles/adults available. You can also find contact info for basenji fanciers on the Willamette Valley Basenji Club site http://www.basenji-club.com and Evergreen Basenji Club site http://www.evergreenbasenjiclub.org/ Send the folks an email or give them a call to check availability! I wish you luck on your journey to find another basenji companion

    Thank you all for your comments, went away for a few days on a beach a few hours away from home, and took photos;will have to learn to put them on the forum now. By tomorrow, some of mon petit monstre sera sur le forum. She loved the beach and spent hours playing and looking at the sea. What energy!! I was exhausted but she kept going and then fall asleep suddenly, not wanting to leave the soft sand bed. A real pleasure to have so much space and time to play!
