My Sarge has a no-fly zone around him when he's asleep....common to Basenjis.
Same breeder where we got our Sarge. You have a beautiful little girl, enjoy!
Sounds just like my Sarge. He is super sweet, lovable but he has his wild animal side. We know when he switches into this mode and we are on guard....it is just his play time. He will grab our hands and arms with his mouth but never bite with a hard force. It is like he knows a play bite and a real one. The older "Taz" gets the better he will be with it. Just reinforce with a "NO" when he bites to hard, he will learn. One thing that is true about Basenjis, they all have different personalities...so what works with one may not work with another so you have to modify and experiment until you find what works with your Taz.

Thank you for those pictures....they made my day. It is good to see people that have and are still enjoying such a wonderful dog.
I know that look....it means...."I'm hungry", "I need to go outside", "Let's go for a walk", "You're in my seat", "Why are you sitting down? I'm not tired yet." etc, etc etc.
My Sarge lays up high between my legs when I'm in the recliner and has to have his blanket covering him.....I walk bow legged now but I love him;-)
Great looking pair.....there is a lot of fun in your future!!
That's where we got our Sarge....I was wondering if she was still in business.
Why have a Basenji? I answer that question with a question....Why ride a roller coaster? There are amazing similarities in the answers to both questions. Think about it.
