I'm So Happy!!!!


  • :) Stella got to meet another B and she did not try to hurt him she was playing. I am so proud of my little girl. She always trys to fight w/ other dogs but not this B and they just moved 3 houses down from me.:) :D She has never seen another B before:cool:


  • B's are "breedist" sometimes. I think that's why they keep a clean bloodline back in Africa. A lot of b's just don't much care for other breeds of dogs.


  • Our Bs so far have been really great with other dogs. They met a big black lab, and they played together really well. They met our friends' 2 HUGE Great Danes, and they were good then too. Also with the neighbor's shepherd mix, and my mom's German Shepherd and Bulldog/Boxer mix. They have yet to meet another B though. We'll see!


  • Congrats, I hope she continues to enjoy playing with her new friend!


  • i was really worried about taking my new basenji to the dog park this past weekend, because his last owner said he was bad with other dogs, but he had so much fun! i'm proud of him! he even got a girlfriend (and boyfriend!!) (this gorgeous rosey light fawn-greyish colored italian greyhound - absolutely beautiful!) and then this grey male i.g. started humping him, lol.. that's the boyfriend :p . so good job to your basenji! it's so nice to see them get along with others!

    I've always had less issues when I have one rather than two, but OTOH, if I was out a lot I would want the second one as a companion. I don't think it is fair to leave them alone for hours every day. (Basenjis are smart enough to figure out that when they do something all they have to do is act cute and let you think it was the other one that did the deed!) :)

    Agreed. Sometimes I think the grosser it is they more they enjoy seeing our faces when they do it.

    In my opinion puppy humping is just a natural thing - lambs do it too. Yes it may be a dominance issue, I'm not sure. They usually grow out of it if and irt's quite easy to gently discourage them but above all don't make an issue of it.

    A Boxenji is a great big goof of a dog who had an affliction called HOD (Hyper trophic osteodystrophy), grew up with Basenji's and think she's one. You should see her run along the back of the couch-absolutely hilarious. She also yodels.
