Our 6 year old.

Storm waits for his walk in the mornings after his breakfast. He prefers to do his business on the trail rather than in our backyard. We usually go 2-3 miles, 3-4 when it’s cooler. He comes home and is pretty much done for the day unless a squirrel visits or another dog. He prefers to sleep in the big wicker chair for most of the day on the back porch until dinner then after that we play a little catch and retrieve and that’s it for him. He comes in and gets in his bed. He loves his routine.

@johnmat I only have to file my basenji’s dew claws. He grinds down all four while we walk which is so nice. We walk 2-3 miles a day.
I’ve bought a handful of the more course emery boards to use. Generally I wait until he is very mellow with his head in my lap and I work on them a little bit at a time. He was hesitant at first when he was young but I was patient now he doesn’t mind. *He sometimes chews on the other end of it.

@may_seeee our basenji is so quiet when he sleeps. You never would know he is there. Please see the vet

Beautiful markings! ️

That’s a Basenji! You need to give him plenty of exercise and watch his weight!

Happy Birthday

Do the DNA test.

Yes. We also have a male TFT Toy fox terrier We adopted him when our Basenji was six. They are true brothers.

He’s got a beautiful coat!! Looks like basenji mix to me!

Awe! He’s a cutie! ️ Yes, a B Boy!

Happy Birthday

I add fish oil to my dog’s food. It helps.

Where did she come from? Hard to tell from your photo how tall she is.

Do the DNA test.

I have a six-year-old Basenji male, a 7 pound toy fox terrier male, and a big male cat. My Basenji also enjoys chasing and pinning the cat. My cat hates it so I have put a stop to it. I use baby gates and I kennel my Basenji when they are in the same room. I refuse to have our cat terrorized because of the Basenji‘s cat and mouse game. Our cat is not nearly as stressed since I have kept on top of this I also keep a can of rocks that I shake when the Basenji begins his stare down. They are not left alone together . I love the Basenji but unfortunately I cannot trust him. It is part of the breed. He goes in the kennel when I have to leave the house.

We use spring time’s longevity ! Made a big difference after a few months His coat is glossy and it has something in it to cut back on the odor.
