To those of you that are having problems with mouthing, holding the muzzle is not a good solution. Substitute a toy for your "body parts" or totally ignore the pup and the minute that the pup settles down, praise.
Sleepy boys

bboy, i think he had previously been sleeping on his face!
when people talk about basenjis not being good with kids i just can never agree. some arent
but this is how i grew up and no matter where my kiddo crashes for the night he and fender insist on laying all over eachother -

That pic of the three of them…....so cute.
If kids are taught how to live with and respect any dog, there shouldn't be a problem.
I know I can't sit or lay down anywhere without having them all wanting to be on me, or at least touching me.:)
It's one of the most appealing aspects of the Basenji for me.....that they love to be with you.

I agree Bboy, our Sahara is the same way, she has to touch you in some way. We love this about her, sometimes she will just reach out and touch your hand with her paw, just to make contact. I love this breed, I have never seen any other dogs do the same.

That 1st pic, with Fenders leg pushing himself into childs back? That is how Duke does it. If he's in between me & hubby, one of us gets the pokey paw in our back. Feels good if he pokes the right spot, like a mini-massage. These are real cute pics.

That is PLS ….or Pokey Leg Syndrome....it appears to be stronger in puppies, and the symptoms ease with age
