Dude the basenji - 6 months old!

[pacificNWbasenji]

We have had many adventures and many more planned this summer so look forward to many more photos!

Here are a few photos of Dudes housemates, cats Hana is the tabby and Mamba is the tuxedo…

And here are a few of my horse I had until college and living on my own, Toby the National Show Horse (Arabian x American Saddlebred)
Someday I hope to have another or rather, a few more…

We also have 3 freshwater aquariums… Im an animal junkie

Awesome, I am an animal junkie as well, glad to see I am not alone, although my hubby seems to think I am.

Great pics!! I love the little black spot on his tail, how neat that is. Great looking pup

Love all your other critters too, they are all beautiful

Thank you all for the wonderful comments, we think he's the greatest thing ever. So much fun and always entertaining!

I beleive a lot of our red/white basenjis do have black hair on their tails, I am told it indicates the possibility of producing tri colored offspring if bred properly. Commonly referred to as 'tri-factoring'

What a cute boy! Thanks for sharing these lovely pics!

They are very cool pictures…........and a great name too!

Not a fan of bowling are you?

Bowling, I wouldn't call myself a fan… Do I sense a 'big lebowski' reference coming on?
We decided on Dude after weeks of name deliberation, trying so hard to pick an unusual, awesome name... We called him little dude in the meantime and it stuck, lol... It fits him perfect, such an easygoing goof... And I'm pretty alternative, skateboard, snowboard, surf, rock and underground hip hop music, camping, hiking, road tripping, tattooed little spitfire... I think a basenji was the perfect choice for a puppy, lol

It was a 'Lebowski' referance!

Tattooed spitfire! - With an ace dog, is it me - or has it got a little warm in here?

Great pics!

Yes, that is correct, breeding to a Tri colored or another color with the Tri Factor and you can get Tris.
