  • Hi everyone,
    My name's Melissa, and I live in Baltimore, MD, USA. I own a bookstore. About a year ago, we adopted our dog Beasley from a local shelter. We think he's a Basenji-Jack Russell mix. Thankfully, he doesn't seem inclined to destroy glasses or carpeting, just his squeaky toys-frequently, I'll emerge from the back room to find the innards of his latest toy scattered around the dining and living room, looking like snowman droppings.

  • Welcome to our community!

  • Yes, we seem to have snowman droppings no matter the season here, Kaiser has a very special technique to his de-stuffing it is interesting to watch(naughty me), a lot of nose work is used. Am now only buying unstuffed toys so they last longer and durable chews, he recently got a deer antler and it is lasting nicely. Love the name Beasley, would love to see what a Beasley looks like. Enjoy your pup.

  • Welcome. Yeah destuffing is a fave activity with many of our guys. Please share a picture of your dog! What about him makes you think he is a basenji mix?

    Thanks, I am very lucky to have her, she's so sweet with such a loving nature. But she does like to hunt, and last night roughed up a little oposson in the back yard. It did get away, with my help. Do other Basenji's like to herd? When Zoe went to a dog run in St Pete, she ran all the dogs to a tree, and kept them there as long as they would put up with it. It was hillarious!

    Do you think he may be reacting to the big change in his family - the loss of both your ex and his basenj companion?
