I feed Sky Merrick Grammy's Pot Pie. Its the only food she'll eat dry. Thankfully its a great quality food. Its not grain free but its the best I can afford. Merrick brand makes a grain free called Before Grain. I agree with many of the others about free feeding, Sky gets two meals a day. Breakfast is a mix of dry and canned and dinner is dry only.

Yes she's a Basenji Schuanzer cross. The man who owned her parents, mother a mini schnuazer and father a red & white Basenji, thought it'd be a good idea to cross them. I'm not sure how many there were in the litter but she was the only girl left and the cutest thing I'd ever seen so I had to take her home. Her father was a beautiful dog and if I'd had the money would have taken him too as the man was switching from Basenjis to Shelties.

Hi, my name is Carrie and I have a 1.5 year old female Basenji mix named Sky who I've had is she was 8 weeks. She's a Basenji in every way, she just has scruffy hair. I love my baby even if she's the most stubborn creature I've ever met. I've already had to spend $1000s fortifying my fence to keep her from exploring the neighborhood and chasing down every rabbit and bird in sight. There's no one around here that I know who owns a Basenji, or has even heard of them. I'm looking forward to getting to know people here and sharing experiences and tips.

I feed my little girl Merrick dry & canned. Its the only thing she'll eat.

How do you get your Basenji to listen? I've had my little girl for over a year since she was 8 weeks. She's very sweet and smart and knows commands but acts completely deaf sometimes. Anyone have any tips or tricks on how to get her to listen better?
