    My name is Angela & I have a wonderful Basenji/ Chihuahua mix, Chelsea. I rescued her as a small puppy in October of 2014 & was told she was a Chi only. it took a couple months of watching her grow & investigating to come to the conclusion she was mixed with Basenji! I had never even heard of this bread so obviously had never dealt with one.
    While she is probably the most independent hard headed puppy I have ever been around…I love her to pieces!! she is so entertaining & unique. I will post pics as soon as possible. Thank you so much for welcoming me into this group.

    Hi Angela. I didn't see your post in the 'new posts" threads and just noticed today over on the side. Welcome to the forum. We'd love to see pictures!

    I also missed this one. Welcome to the forum!

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    Hi Greg. I can't tell you how happy I was to hear that Bunny was found. Every day I signed on to the forum, hoping for some good news.

    Took Ramsey to a dog park today, first time. He did very well, no fights and there was around 20 dogs there running loose. He did hold his ground with every dog and even pushed the line a little with some of the larger dogs. All in all a good day for Rams! We have never really trusted him or the other dogs enough to take him to a dog park but today we said what the heck and Ramsey showed us that he can socialize with the best of them. Chris
