Serious thinking

Basenji Talk

  • A few weeks ago, EL D tore up a stuffed toy I brought back from my trip to Poland – it had fallen off the shelf and I didn't notice. Of course I was P#$%&* at him because it was a special item, but then felt bad because you could see in his eyes that he didn't understand -- "it was on the floor and it looked just like my other toys".

    Anyway, the other day I was sitting in my den with EL D on my lap and suddenly he gets this really strange look and stares at my desk -- on which was the remains of the torn up toy. He stared and stared and stared and stared. It was quite clear what was going on in his mind -- "that looks like the new toy I tore up, what is it doing there?"

    Stupid dogs indeed - ha!


  • LOL. Your story cracked me up!

    I have a general question. Does anybody elses Basenji not like to be picked up. Ours sometimes loves it, and sometimes not. Also sometimes she runs up to dogs as quiet as can be and plays, and than other times she makes a squeeling noise, and people are afraid she is picking a fight with their dog. But I think shes just talking. She squeels at our new Whippet puppy, and loves to play with her and is as gentle as can be, considering the Whippet puppy is really rough on my poor Basenji baby girl. does anyone know what the squeeling means. The baroo I get she does that all the time. The squeeling is confusing.

    @Kingsley1230: Thanks for all the input guys! I will definitely get Lilu trained before I bring in a new B. But in the mean time I will be looking for a place to adopt an adult B, I heard eldorado is great. Is this correct? I have 2 Eldorado basenjis and also their male that they imported from Finland. 2 I adopted as adult show dogs retirees. I couldn't be happier with my basenjis. They have wonderful termperaments and Eldorado is big on health testing. The sisters are super helpful and always willing to answer my silly questions. :D

    Thanks for all your help! As I mentioned previously, it was the trainer that said there may be some basenji in this dog. We had never heard of basenjis, so it's been interesting to learn more about them, whether or not she has any in her. Thanks again for your input!

    @JazzysMom: Well, it's a good thing we went straight to a breeder! I'd considered BRAT, but decided to get a puppy instead. Good thing, because with six kids at home and lots of other kids in and out, we'd have never gotten a dog! Sad isn't it….
