  • I received this on another list I'm on {I think a few of you are there too}.
    I have no info. other than what is posted here, but figured it wouldn't hurt to spread the word.
    If you have an idea of where this dog belongs, let me know and I'll pass the info along.

    Hello all -

    I live in Hudson Massachusetts. This morning I visited our dog pound
    to confirm that the dog officer has a basenji in his custody.

    Female, red/white, sweet disposition, looks to be well fed. I have a
    photo... email me & I'll send it to you. As far as I know, the pound
    does not scan the dogs it brings in.

    I'm trying to spread the word. Someone must be missing this sweet girl!

    There's nothing like a basenji in the works, from the way they instinctively lay with their had on the bum looking the other way ( I've never met a B that doesn't) to the way you KNOW they all rub on wet towels or play bow…it's all very endearing and in this breed you often identify traits that they all have, an insight into their genetics and their behaviors. I've never enjoyed a breed so much.

    My Rue is pretty perfect. She is mixed with something (I don't know what) so she doesn't look like a real B… and she isn't interested in anything in our house (chewing wise), doesn't bolt out the door, and licks like CRAZY! She also doesn't really like to play with other dogs at the dog park, she just smells them, occasionally chases them, then comes back and lays down by me (EXERCISE DANG IT!). The only normal B behaviors that I see in her are the little noises that she makes (she makes a lot of them for different reasons) and her BAROOOOOOO (which is fitting because we named her Rue before we even knew she was a Basenji) and it seems like she is stubborn about sitting. It's like she is saying, "yeah I know you want me to sit, but first I'm gonna spin around in a circle. Then maybe I'll sit if I feel like it." Haha! She is a character!

    I have found that if I take my B to doggie daycare (even if it's only for half a day), she is ehausted when I bring her home. She will let me do the dishes without any basenji help! She also tends to treat our doggie friends a little nicer when they come around. Having a worn out basenji is deifinitely worth the $15!!
