Basenji's on Wine Labels- Need your help

Basenji Talk
  • @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

    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!

    BBOB-whew! So glad that you've done some homework with them. We've had too many abandoned B's lately that I can't bear it anymore. Like Andrea it depends on what they've gotten themselves into during the day like pretty flowers, grass or flowering trees…then I'm in trouble. :)
  • Hahha all about the basenji's
