when basenjis are cold!

Off Topic
  • I have three sweaters hand knitted by another basenji lover. . I got them when I didn't know as much as I do now, Basenjis get cold when the Texas winds blow and its drops below , so I got the sweaters, they did not like them at all, chewed up one, So I'm downsizing and found them again, if anyone wants them let me know and I will get them in the mail. They are ugly colors , but basenjis don't care. My pack has a heated dog house now with hay for their nest. When we walk at nights, they don't need a sweater in winter. Im not savy enough today to post a picture, it will be a surprise..

  • You basenjis live outside or the heated dog house is just for being out sometimes?

    One of mine also chewed sweaters. Cara is fine with hers.

  • @CrazyBasenjiMom If I were you & had 3 b's that got along ~ I'd trade in my queen size bed for a king & have a b on each side & 1 snuggling between the feather pillows & my head! Of course, there'd be a nice blanky for the b with the feather pillows & my head! I'd dearly love to know what it's like to have a b curled around the top of my head!! ;) Yes, I'm crazy, but I'm a fun kind of crazy! And no, no b's at my feet ~ I can't stand it when my feet are hot!!

  • @CrazyBasenjiMom I live in the very Southern tip of Indiana & we get some pretty cold winters & there's a lot of humidity so it's a real "biting" cold & if the winds blowing ~ it feels like razor blades are in it!! If no one else wants the sweaters, I'd be glad to have them for my next b that I'm waiting on getting!! But if someone else lives in a colder area & wants them, they can get them! If no one else wants them, I'll be happy to have them. Before my Mother passed last yr., she'd knit up one for everyday of the week & one to wear on wash-day!! :)

    What an interesting group of pictures. I don't get a good feeling when looking at these pictures - I get a feeling that the animals look as if they are being exploited. The dog at the bottom right does looks a little like a basenji or pharoah hound or a mix of the two.
  • Any basenji owners from Sask?

    gneigum, We posted the thread below and were wonderring if you would be interested in helping us. It would be greatly appreciated if you could! Let us know! Thanks for your consideration. We are currently in the process of looking to adopt a basenji. We have done all the research on the breed and learned about their traits and querks. We have come to the decision that a basenji is the right dog for us. However I suffer from allergies and want to make sure that I don't have an allergic reaction to our new family member. I have done alot of research and have read many artictles which say that basenji's are hypoallergetic. This is great, however no dog is truly allergy free. We have gone as far as visiting a breeder to meet their dogs and had a minor reaction. However I do not know if this was due to the fury little guy or the cigarette smoke in the residence (which I am also allergic to). Long story short, we are looking for a Saskatchewan Basenji owner that would be willing to let us meet their basenji to determine if allergies will be an issue. Please respond if you are a basenji owner in Saskatchewan or near by. Thanks!

    Hi everyone, Certain forum members were asked to leave since they repeatedly violated Basenji Forums rules and guidelines. As a result of all the violations and all the negativity caused, PM was disabled. Please contact us privately at admin@basenjiforums.com if you would like to discuss this further.
