Basenji's on Wine Labels- Need your help

Basenji Talk
  • Well of course he went after the buck - Redmond has to get paid for his services doesn't he :D

  • @ChaseandZahrasmom:

    I called and ordered two boxes of the Redmund's Candy Cane box which is one bottle of red and one bottle of white with a candy cane and you save $5 because seperate they are $15.00 each.

    That sounds great for Xmas!! I'm glad you mentioned that. One of my gifts will be going to Karen and Chuck (don't anyone tell them!) who have the basenji rescue shelter in SoCal. I got Tyler and Zoey from them earlier this year. I already have a cute photo in a frame that has painted on it–Tyler and Zoey Together Forever--but this wine will be a fun gift too.

  • @ChaseandZahrasmom:

    When I called the woman I spoke with asked me if it was normal for a Basenji to hunt deer because Redmund their Basenji had gone after a doe and shortly after that he went after a buck! :eek:

    I heard them talking about that at the party. The Basenji didn't kill the deer, but almost. They had to have the deer put down.

    Don't ever underestimate a Basenji.;)

    My little Max (24 lbs) did the same to a full grown racoon years ago….and Max didn't have even a scratch on him....I started putting the dog door down at night after that.....

    He may be a little Max, but everytime I see his picture he reminds me of my Big Max.:)

    It is amazing what they can do and could you imagine what a pack of say five or six could do????

  • It is amazing, I almost didn't believe it when she said it because Zahra is so small that I can't imagine it.

  • Apparently the winery name is not listed on the bottle… how is that possible?
    I'm still working on that...

    Happy Hound
    Cabernet
    Sonoma, California

    is all I have so far... ugh!!

  • I emailed Pearmund Winery also. They were quick to get back to me. I think I'm going to go out there this Sunday and meet Redmund and pick up a few bottles to give family and friends over the holidays. Based on their location, I think they are only about 45 minutes from me. Apparently the tours aren't scheduled and they are open for visits at pretty much any time.

    I would take Tucker, but I'm afraid he'll start a fight. Wouldn't be too cool if the subsequent wine labels had a bloody mangled basenji on them. :D

  • @TuckerVA:

    Yeah, that probably wouldn't be an endearing label :D

  • That winery must be LOVIN this forum…I ordered my wines too! I'm going to give them to our dog trainers as Xmas presents from my Bs :D

    I have discovered that many Basenjis don't mind hanging out with their own kind...when they have enough room to play & run around like maniacs :eek: ha ha!! My Bs are very confrontational with other dogs but when we've taken them to meet other Bs they're actually pretty good. SHOCKING...I know!

    As BBoy says they're just prejudiced & only stick to their own kind LOL!! HA HA!!

  • Darn if I haven't missed the FedEx delivery person the last two days! I want to see my wine!!!!!!!

  • When I ordered my wine the other day, I told them they might be hearing from quite a few basenji owners–both in person and having wine shipped. They were quite happy about that :)

    I stopped in at a nice, large wine store today while I was Xmas shopping and asked if they knew of a Happy Hound Cabernet, and they did not.....so it is still a mystery.....

  • I got my wine from Pearmund's today, the labels on the bottles are sooo cute!

    The label on the back says:

    Our social Basenji, Redmund, is constantly searching for the best of what our vineyard has to offer; whether it's fresh fruit or frolicking fun! We've composed this wine to embody the joyful spirit that Redmund brings to our farm winery every day.

  • I can't wait to get mine!

    My Basenjis catch and kill wasps and have never got stung in doing so - their snap and release is too quick for them to get stung. However one did get stung on his foot when he trod on a dying bee. Often Basenjis get frightened of a particular thing when they sense their owner's fear. Are you afraid of wasps, Shelley?

    I, (name), take you, (Basenji), to be my pooch, my constant friend, my faithful partner and my love from this day forward. In the presence of God, our family and friends, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad regardless of the obstacles we may face together, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to honor and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you, and to cherish you till death do us part. BDawg-you said it better then I ever could :D it is a true marriage in every way, shape, & form. There isn't ANYTHING I wouldn't do or sacrifice for my two pooches. I told my DH that I would sooner give him up then my dogs :D :D I'd never leave my dogs no matter what. He told me we'd have a bitter battle over the…lol :D BTW-I know EXACTLY what you mean by that "bond" they trust you to protect them & take care of them & love them.

    @spitfirekrl1: He doesn't seem to mind much he pretty much ignores it except when she pins him and he ends up on his back. Then he'll start snapping at her face which doesn't seem to steer her away from her objective (we have no idea what that is at this point). When she pins him she wants submission. She wants him to not struggle and nip and he should calm before she lets him go. Momma dogs do this to their puppies, it is part of puppy education. They do it most to the puppies that are the most pushy usually. In our last litter, Zeke always expected to get his way and he was the one who was pinned by both mom and Rio the most. He learned that by submitting he was allowed to go back to play. When he crossed the line, by playing too rough or invading the adults personal space he was pinned. He learned the limits to play and how to behave appropriately with adults from this. The other pups would get the same treatment but less because they didn't push those boundaries as much.
