Well isn't she a sassy little thing? Thanks so much for the information. I had not heard of this one at all. I will Google it to get more info and find where to purchase!

I saw it the other day and was in shock!! Totally pawesome!!

Not to be a spoil sport, but I for one am glad our breed is not well known, or featured in a lot of commercials. God forbid they should ever star a Basenji in another movie! From bitter experience, lovers of other breeds that have become popular have learned it is the "kiss of death". Once something is in demand, all the puppy mills start churning it out and ruin the breed. There is something to be said for enjoying our wonderful, quirky dogs quietly. Like belonging to a private club.
Gee, could you point out to me where I said that, please? I can't seem to find it in my post…..
Your "not to be a spoil sport" then explanation seemed to indicate you believed you thought others didn't know or wanted them "popular" when in reality, again– I doubt anyone here or any breed board would want it. You stated the obvious, commonly held views as if they were contrary to what most actually think.

Nope, didn't mean that. Of course people know what popularity does to a breed. My comment was only to soften the reminder…...yes, stating the obvious, didn't know it was a crime.

It does feel like a "private club" owning a Basenji. First breed I've owned where it really is a breed all it's own; people who don't own one just can't understand… And they dont! May be snooty but it's true, they are not for everyone, not everyone can "hack it" owning one and only once you do, you realize how great it is to share with others who get it.

Wow, not a crime any more than my asking if you really believed others didn't know was. But whatever.

The Eukanuba website says that this commercial was shot in Europe.

I agree that it does feel like an exclusive club in having a basenji. Especially when you have a forum like this. I love the fact that we can come on here and banter and talk about issues and concerns where everyone else understands what you are going through. Before I found this site I did not know about all B's trying to 'scent' themselves, or that it seems like they are afraid of the dark. It kind of feels like we are all a big family and everyone is here to help everyone else.

That was the commercial that my BF and I realized that my adopted baby was a basenji. My BF knew what he was but couldn't place it and we saw the commercial and knew he looked like a Basenji but when we looked up the traits and personalitly of the Basenji we both agreed that he was a basenji. I couldn't have been happier.

The basenji club…. kind of like the Freemasons. Perhaps we should have secret handshakes/paw shakes.

I saw it …...and ... exclaimed.. It's a Basenji!!!!!!!
Like its the rarest of finds....
Never saw the commercial again!!!
