My Rosa wrote the "How To Be a Basenji DIVA" manuscript - as many rules there were, it was so worthy of a 'script' at the end! She, and all her offspring, had spring and fall heats, but I only bred her once in the spring. That produced one puppy, my Captain. She always ruled over her pups, except when Captain came along - she did what HE said when he was about 2 weeks old!
The Essence of a Basenji Owner

Had to chuckle when I received the following message on Facebook from one of our previous puppy buyers:
Can you send us an e-mail? Raider ate our purchase agreement so I no longer have your e-mail address. We do want another puppy this winter, Raider is the best Basenji!
Only a B owner would think that it was just fine for the "best Basenji" to have eaten the purchase agreement. And this is from the people who called us not long after they got him to say that Raider had found a hole in the side of their family room couch, which he made into his own Habitrail by eating all the way through and out the other side. They thought he was so clever!

Sounds like they were prepared for a Basenji!

Love this story

Yes, they are "naturals" for basenji ownership. Admiration of your basenji's cleverness is a wonderful point of view!
