They are also very clever at winning people over. My sis, who owns and loves chow chows, just didn't 'get' my excitement when I made plans to get a basenji. At the beginning, she thought Kipawa was cute, but she was still reserved with her feelings. However, she is totally in love with Kipawa now, and he loves her too. And she is now loving the breed itself. If she sees a good basenji picture somewhere, she will post it on facebook. Those basenji faces can just melt our hearts, and that is why the little buggers can get away with so much. 🙂
Getting information about Basenjis from the magazine rack
-
Does anybody read and/or purchase the breed specific magazines sold in most pet shops and pet supply stores? For example: Dog World, Dogs USA, Puppies USA, Dog Fancy.
When you got your Basenji, did you seek out information about the breed in any of these kinds of magazines?
Did any of these magazine have any value to you when you were looking for information about Basenjis? If so, in what way?
Do they now? -
I checked out Dogs Canada for breeders then also researched online.
-
probably, but that was 20+ years ago when i got my first basenji. i think now i'd be more apt to check the internet first
-
I used to years ago, just to see what was in there, but not any more… and I don't know of anyone that has in the past contact me about a puppy ever say they used/read any of those magazines
-
