Yodels/Baroo….

Basenji Talk
  • I've tried barooing for the dogs with no results. I wonder if I keep at it, they'll finally catch on. Duke screams when Raj plays too rough or you trip over him (I'm kind of a klutz). Raj has barooed once. That was when we first picked them up from the breeder. He barooed, pooped all over the crate, then proceeded to step and sit in it. What a lovely first 15 minutes we had with our boys!

  • Dallas is VERY vocal sometimes but as far as baroo-ing, not so much. I think I have only heard him do it 2-3 times since I've had him? It is cute though & I wish I could get him to do it more often!

    Dallas will also bark. It's a whimpy bark but what I would consider a bark nonetheless. He only does that though when he is in his crate & wants out & knows people are in the house.

    Haha, LOL! :D

  • my girl has not made a peep until today - it was not a yodel not a baroo, it was a full on BARK like, woof woof, and totally strange… Does anyone elses B bark???

    ps. She Ra is only 4 months, but I just thought I would throw it out there....

    Yup…Brando is a barker...and does it multiple times in a row...I've yet to hear him yodel or baroo. Although one of his barks the other day was clearly a note so I'm hopeful he'll follow Ruby's lead and start singing once in a while. Ruby has only barked once (a single bark at that) and it was when my brother startled her late at night.

  • My girl barks…and she will do it over and over, if she is mad at her brother, or wants some attention.
    I think this is a warning sound...she doesn't make any other noises however.
    My boy freezes in his tracks when she does it to him!
    Always makes me laugh.

  • Talker is the talker in our pack. He yodels and barroooos and makes all types of sounds. He will also bark one bark at a time. Sometimes he'll do two in a row.

    Savannah never yodels, but she'll give out one warning bark. Its short. She'll whimper when she's happy but she's never yodel.

    Hahaha… that sounds like Charlie when Zaire hits him. He stopped being terrified of her noisesso now she has tried whining, screaming, and one quick bark at him. He never backs down now, untill she starts smacking him on the nose. then he doesn't know what to do and just lays down. :D

    :( Tahat is so sad. Sayblee used to baroo a lot, but when my husband came home she ALWAYS barooed for him. I could be gone longer, and she wiggled and was ecstatic to see me, but I sure couldn't count on a baroo. :( LOL maybe you can click & treat the barooing for your mom and teach her to do it on command?

    @nobarkus: That video was taken by Susan Kamen Marsicano of APU Basenjis (since 1973). I've been friends with Susan since 94. She has Basenji off spring all over the world. She had 8 Basenjis, she just lost a 16 year old 2 days ago so now it's seven. She's a really good artist too. http://www.apubasenjis.com/ Really nice website! Thanks for sharing.

    Joey gave his first 'Baroooooo' today when I didn't give him as much attention as he wanted after I came home. I was surprised and thrilled! It was so fun to hear it since most of the time he is quiet unless growling when someone disturbs him while he is sleeping. Is there a difference between a baroo and a yodel? Once before when I didn't give him adequate attention, he batted my leg to let me know, Hey I'm down here waiting for more attention!
