Basenjis on Animal Planet

Basenji Talk
  • DukeD

    Last night, on "Animal Planet Hero: Phoenix", they rescued 6 Basenjis (Black/Whites, Red/Whites & Brindles) from a woman's home. Has anyone seen that episode? These B's were so sweet, ;) even though their lives hadn't been too good. They were living in filthy crates. They had urine burns on their feet, way long toe nails and got their 1st bath. The 2 Blk/Whts (looked like Duke) were showcased and featured their foster home owners. They said the reason they liked the Basenji was for the challenge and that they're unique. I was GLUED! See . . . Everything's coming up Basenji! I don't think I've ever seen them on TV before, until now. Glad these guys were rescued. :)

    It's a coincidence that you should mention this Crystal. Yesterday i was writing to a young child who lives in Northern Malawi and was unsure whether to mention our Basenji. When corresponding you are asked to be careful about mentioning certain subjects in case you cause offence. However when i emailed for advice i have been told it will be ok to mention Malaika.

    lol usually when you breed a bigger dog to a smaller dog the Male is the tiny one. Its just dangerous to do it the other way around. As far as DNA breed testing I would go for it if I could. But i am just interested in those kinds of tests. We offer them at our clinic but i haven't ever seen results for them.

    Me too. and I also wonder how these films can be a blessing as well as a boon for breeders? I do know that we have a major problem here in Border Collie Rescue which initially arose after the television series of Sheepdog trials. So many thought what a wonderful pet such clever dogs would be!

    Actually, I think all the Breed All About its are 30 minute shows, so probably 22-24 minutes of content. We have done a search on any new DVR we have gotten and always keep it on there. One of our dogs goes crazy any time we put it on, it is hilarious.

    I have found that if I take my B to doggie daycare (even if it's only for half a day), she is ehausted when I bring her home. She will let me do the dishes without any basenji help! She also tends to treat our doggie friends a little nicer when they come around. Having a worn out basenji is deifinitely worth the $15!!

    OMG, TRUST me…its not only ur baby, Jack has some seporation anxiety, i mean, we rescued him so that may be why, but i Always feel so sad when we leave him, he runs to the window and crys when we leave, but i KNOW it wonly lasts until he cant see us anymore (driving away) my neighbor watched for me. but SOMETIMES he does get into things when we leave for too long. like the other day, when he ate my betta fish food...grr...
