Foods basenjis love

Basenji Talk
  • corned beef and hash comes in a can….it is in the spamalicious and vienna sausage family and is a camping breakfast favorite as well as some peoples' breakfast for those who enjoy salt in the morning.

    a very salty meat, some variety of pork with bits of potatoe in it...heat it up and eat with eggs....

    stinky salty maybe meat product that can taste really good at certain moments.....l

  • Oh, by the way, I would not touch it with a ten foot pole… gggg But the smell makes my B's go totally nuts!

  • I'm in hysterics, because we have always said there should be a dog food that is "cat poop" flavored.

  • By the way, our little Juma will eat almost anything in front of her. However, boiled hamburger meat is fun to add a bit to her food.

    I'm sorry for anyone who likes canned hash-but, isn't that what it is? Canned "cat poop" flavoured sorta "meat"?

  • AAAAAHHHHH Ok I do know SPAM..grew up on the stuff. Don't ask me why?? I can't even look at it now :D :D

    Here's my take on why dogs eat cat poop. The cat gets chased and terrorized by the dog. So the cat gets back at the dog by the poop having a magic spell on it that makes the dog hallucinate that it's a juicy steak hot off the grill. So the cat sits up on the fence having the last laugh watching the dog eat.

  • Mystery meat

  • anything we are eating. He is not fond of carrots or any raw vegetable.

  • Yogurt
    Cottage cheese
    eggs
    lean meat (chicken, beef, bison etc.)
    Steamed veggies (esp. broccoli)
    fish (cod and salmoln are big hits here!)
    And Storm loves raw asparagus (almost as much as he loves cat box crunchies! :) ).

  • and peanut butter..

  • Food. Plain and simple.

  • He also eats anything that is not food so long as it is REALLY disgusting. Like say…... hippies or something.

  • **Now I know why I feel a special kinship with my B's.:rolleyes: I like corned beef hash too…:D

    My guys seem to have a special fondness for anything that comes out the exhaust end of any other animal. They think our horses are Bon Bon makers that move. :confused:

    I know what your thinkin......the kinship don't run that deep! :cool:**

  • Mine love-

    Baby bunnies
    baby birds
    Any bad human food they can steal, like pizza
    Dirty tissues, underwear
    carrots
    chicken/turkey

    Hate with a passion

    Banannas
    Peanut butter

  • Jack Fantasy Menu..

    Bread, Feathers, peanut butter, bacon grease, raw potatoes (red skinned), MY PLATE of Dinner when I'm not Looking!!!!, grass, bugs that fly around his head (lol), his dog food which when you add a half cup of warm water to creates GRAVY!!, and of course, fish from the fish tank (if only he could reach!!)…and unfortunately, cat poo isn't all that bad either...(YUCK!!)

  • Jojo eats dirt but she likes turkey bacon, eggs, chicken, beef, and she really loves shrimp, scallops and cod fillets…she sometimes will eat cooked carrots but other times she won't touch them...

  • I have not found a food yet that Keoki will not eat.
    Well, except that lemon, but even then he didn't want to give it up! LOL

    He goes nuts whenever anyone eats anything. He can't seem to focus on anything else when there is food present.

    I thought his being so food motivated would make him easy to train. But he can't even focus on his "lessons" because he is so frantic about getting the treat, and it doesn't matter what the treat is. LOL I think he goes a wee bit deaf at those times.

  • I feel like I am a bad momma, my two Bs have never tasted any of that stuff, alls they get is Evo and little tiny training liver treats. :)

  • WELL i can add something NASTY as of today, Jack likes to eat ear wax off of QTips we throw in the trash!!! EWWWWW

    Last I heard, the Breed Club secretaries had more people waiting or wanting pups than were available . You could get on a list for a Basenji next winter but I very much doubt you will find one still unsold. Go to the website of the BCGB, or the Northern Basenji Society as you are in the North and you will find email addresses of the secretaries. They will put you in touch with breeders who may be planning a litter for puppies to become ready to leave the nest in about a year's time. Its a long wait I know, but you have most probably missed the boat for now. You are welcome to post me privately. Good luck!

    @weedtrek Possibly Basenji mix, nose looks a bit wider and the eyes are less oval. Could well be a Basenji mix though.

    Where I am it costs about $2K+ for a dog from a breeder for just about any breed. Goldens may be less because the litters are so large. That may seem like a lot, but, as Debra mentions, dogs cost money to care for. After vet bills and boarding fees and food, it matters little what the dog cost to acquire. Leaving true puppy mills out of the discussion, given the costs of being a responsible breeder -- testing, vet bills, feeding -- and how much work breeding is, I can't imagine anyone doing it for the money. That leads to two problems for people looking for dogs. One is that since breeding isn't really lucrative, there aren't a ton of breeders, which means the supply of pups is low. Second is that most Basenji breeders want to place their pups in the best possible homes -- remember they aren't doing it for the money -- which means they're looking for people who have had Basenjis before. Something of a Catch-22.

    Oh Barklessdog, you are a brave person. I must now stand with you in insane-solidarity and admit I bought it too. It is awful but when you get the line "we couldn't say goodbye so we took him home" part, you know you got to help support the woman. lol
