Bs with large animals

Basenji Talk
  • senjiS

    Does anyone have any input on Bs with large animals. We are hoping to start an alpaca farm and I wonder how Deke might react. Any info is fine I thought maybe someone out there has horses, cows, maybe even sheep. Alpacas are totally non aggressive, they don't even kick, so I know they wouldn't do anything to him. Thanks

    My OJ loves horses…. my Maggii hated them... she would never go near them... OJ on the other hand, left to himself would have most likely gotten hurt running around them... but he didn't chase them.. he just like them....

    I live in the heart of Amish country in central PA. Storm likes horses from a distance, but he got really skittish when he met one up close. Luckily the horse he met was really even tempered and didn't even flick a tail in Storm's direction.

    On work days I have to wake up Gossy but on weekends she wakes me up by sticking her face right next to mine and giving me that old basenji mind-meld "I will you to wake up".

    Okay, that is interesting. An 'aloof' owner and 2 outgoing dogs - go figure.

    How true. I'm surprised no one has started Basenji Anonymous, LOL It's like pringles can't have one. Although I have just one now. I have owned Basenjsi for 30 years. I tell my dog loving co-workers about Kay-Dee's antics and they love hearing about her. She goes a lot of places with me and she has her own fan club.

    @SyberSade: Thank you Dan (Nobarkus) and Ivoss! You Basenji Forum people come through for me once again! When I get back home (Mesa, AZ) I'll hit the bookstore with my list of recommendations and see what I can find. (I'm flying to Sacramento this weekend to see my son play in his last college football home game….....go UC Davis Aggies!! :D ) @lvoss: Go Aggies! I live in Woodland and am a UCD alum. We will be just down the road in Dixon lure coursing the dogs. FYI Ivoss….........UCDavis won the game I went to see son #2 play in! BUT, last weekend UCD lost to Sac State in the Causeway Classic......which made son #1 really happy because he is in a masters program there. But UCDavis had a great season. I think the guys are pretty happy about it (even though they would've liked to beat the Hornets!). Hope you and your "kids" had a great time at the lure cousing..........I was SO tempted to sneak away and run over to Dixon to check it out..........but couldn't bring myself to leave my boys since I rarely see them anymore. ;)

    REI Makes a nice pack for dogs. Indy has one but don't clip your leash to it. If you want one you can clip the leash to try a ruffwear. Additionally…watch the weight, remember that water weighs 4lbs per litre so you want to be careful giving them water. We usually have Indy carry his food, treats, a sweater or jacket, and a toy. And then we carry it when he gets tired. We also always make sure that he SEES the treats come out of the pack so he knows he is working for a reason.
