Eli makes new friends!

Basenji Talk
  • E

    Last night we went over to visit a friend who just got a rescue mini doxie puppy. Trip is about 4 1/2 months old and they also have Pax, a rescue German Shepherd who is about 3. Eli had a blast wrestling with little Trip. Since E has always been the baby I was pleasantly surprised that he got along so well with the puppy.

    He and Pax had one snarky moment. Eli was leading the B500 with Pax hot on his tail. She couldn't catch Eli, so after about 3 laps Pax got smart and doubled back instead of just finishing the circle. It was dark and there was almost a head on collision. I think it scared both of them, but they were over it in about 2 seconds and were off again.

    The funniest thing is that they have a huge terraced fish pond. It was dark and Eli went flying up and jumped on the wall…..right over into the pond. Needless to say he was one VERY unhappy boy!:eek:

    And I think that clicker training is the BEST way to train a Basenji. -Joanne

    just want to be smart mouths, and I think they are just jealous. Everyone that I have told that my dog doesn't bark replies,"Now that is what I need, it must be nice".

    Nice photos, Jonny was a good boy! He was probably happy to play with another basenji! Glad it all went so well.

    Seren Jane doesn't make too many sounds, only occassionaly when we've picked her up from the groomer does she sound a bit like a baby. Not her favorite thing. Now she does make a low growling sound if you acciently roll on her at night or try to move her over in the bed, real grumpy then. She does seem to enjoy listening to the sounds of other basenji's that I've found on the Internet.

    I think an original idea should be developed that is associated with bs. The weims dressed up is so classic for them. Bs should somehow be associated with messes. Maybe they should be paired with new furniture advertising or TP sales!!! Weims became so popular tho, they are having probs in rescue. They are very high energy and most people can't give them enough exercise. I think my idea would prevent Bs from becoming too popular and lots more ending up in rescue. :D

    The only thing I would be concerned about with a Dachshund would be the possiblity of it having some back damage with the rough play of a basenji…or even trying to do the same acrobatics that Bs do. I have known some folks who had a lot of problems with disk and spine problems with Doxies...but I don't know if that is typical. Something to think about though...
