Hope has a new B friend!

Basenji Talk
  • Yay for Basenji play!! We had a similar experience when Lewie met his first Basenji buddy- they play together unlike I've ever seen…

  • I totally understand 'squeal'! :)

    How great that Hope will have a basenji playmate. And it's a male too, which will be a great match for Hope. I totally feel your excitement!

  • It's funny how they always know another basenji as "like me!" and play is wonderful. They speak the same body-language and it really shows in interactions. How lucky for you all that you live so close!

  • we are super excited and hope to catch up alot more at the dog park and hopefully become friends :)

    its amazing how they just clicked. battin' each other, he tried to keep up with her - will be awesome when hes older and gets some speed - she'll have someone to give her a run for her money!!

    makes me all ga-ga for another puppy :P but no…. :)

  • new puppy was there again today :) His name is Diodge (dee-oh-gee). he was obsessing with Hope - its like oh hay! … your like me! Hope was like oh i like you play play play ..... wait dogs running... zooom ...off she goes and leaves him behind lol so she finally stops for a number 2 break and the cheeky bugger had been watching her and noticed she stopped so he done a little burnout (b500) and then made his way over and crashed right into her while she was going number 2 - couldnt help but laugh. Now when she doesnt pay attention to him he barges her. Basenjis rock :) cant wait til he keeps up with her. We have another play date hopefully on sunday :)

  • We would love to see some play photos..if you can get them..

    my thoughts exactly Sharron,:D

    my thoughts exactly Sharron,:D

    will get photos hopefully tomorrow if they come along to our play :) its just hard grabbing photos when theres a whole big park to play in - why bother the humans while they sit and talk :P he he. but there will be plenty of chances :)

  • stole some piccies from our last couple of play dates. they are so cute together.
    hes growing up super fast. much more mellow then Hope was at that age.

    Hope was crazy, bouncy basenji and hes quiet relaxed and happy to stay put. He does get little cheeky moments that remind me of the start of a b500 :)

    will try and snap some new ones this week.

    p.s. yep, they are lazing around at the dog park. its just gotten summer here the last week and everyone (including us humans) are trying to get used to the muggy humidity again. blergh

    Q
    The coat looks gorgeous - it's just the skin…I have noticed since it is persisting it down here (and cold - well it is Summer...) that the flaking is much better - I wonder if the flat is too dry for him? It has got central heating...which is till occasionally switched on - and it's nearly June :(

    There's one that comes to our dog park named Rocket and he's very fast and focused on retrieving. I have yet to see him play with the other dogs. He's never mean or anything just not interested in play.

    Welcome…no breeding info. from me, but I'm certain you'll get lots of feedback and have fun with others who share your passion for Basenjis! I got mine from a NH breeder and we live in VT. Enjoy!

    I think an original idea should be developed that is associated with bs. The weims dressed up is so classic for them. Bs should somehow be associated with messes. Maybe they should be paired with new furniture advertising or TP sales!!! Weims became so popular tho, they are having probs in rescue. They are very high energy and most people can't give them enough exercise. I think my idea would prevent Bs from becoming too popular and lots more ending up in rescue. :D
