What Silly Things SCARE Your B??

Basenji Talk
  • Oh Jack has scared me before, see my post…"My B Scared me to DEATH!!"

  • "For the most" part my boy does not give a darn about anything. Loud noises sudden movements, crowds, fireworks, earthquakes, escalators, elevators, different people walking in and out of the house ect, he just could not care less. The only thing I could think of, he's a little scared of my turtles when I put them in the bath tub he peeks from the bedroom door then he takes a couple of steps to look at them and decides to go back to peeking around the corner from the door. LOL

  • Shelby was startled once by deer while we were on a walk but she's curious about everything else, especially if Mom is there. Vince is a bit more fearful which is really funny because he looks more fearsome. He's very nervous of loud popping sounds like fireworks or cars backfiring but we joke that it's because he was in the mafia or a gang in NJ and is afraid of a drive-by.;)

    Definitely looks like a basenji to me. If it was something like a lab, they would be in the pool hogging the space.

    Wonderful sharing! You've captured so much in a nutshell. Talker doesn't like you blowing on his face or his ears. Many times if he's acting up (starting to snark at another dog), I'll blow on his ears to get his attention–he looks up at me with that, "Why'd you do that for Mom!" face. The other night he was lying next to my husband on the couch. He was all comfortable and my husband blew something off of Talker's back. Talker promptly got up and left the couch. My husband tried getting him back on the couch next to him and even tried to explained to Talker that something was on his back. Talker wouldn't have anything to do with him. It was funny.

    I have had a couple of basenjis that howled occasionally in their sleep. That is really spooky, a long, low mournful howl, sitting up but asleep. I have never heard one scream while asleep. Our first screamer would do it to let you kow where he was, and that he wanted you to come to him. Sounds like what your boy did in the middle of the night! And it is nothing like a howl or yodel, it is a bloodcurdling scream! Anne in Tampa

    They are called Diastix. Some drug stores still carry them, but many have to special order them. You can find them online though.
