I think I read that Basenji's are on duty at night. Protecting. They want to sleep with their back to you, so they can be ready to protect you. It could be that the doxy alarms the basenji. Just a thought.

RE: Tail wagging
Hi, My Zoe is a B mix also. She is 1/2 Jack Russel, 1/2 Basenji. She is a great pooch. What type of mix is your pup?

RE: Tail wagging
Zoe's tail is curled when she wags, which is a lot! It looks adorable.

RE: Documented top speed
You have a beautiful pup. I've read that a Basenji can run 35mph sustained for a long distance.:)

RE: Hello everyone
Thanks, I am very lucky to have her, she's so sweet with such a loving nature. But she does like to hunt, and last night roughed up a little oposson in the back yard. It did get away, with my help. Do other Basenji's like to herd? When Zoe went to a dog run in St Pete, she ran all the dogs to a tree, and kept them there as long as they would put up with it. It was hillarious!

RE: 3rd Yodel Ever
Zoe is only 1/2 Basenji and does bark. But she also has a strange sound I'm not sure about. It's a strange yell. Is that a Basenji howl? It almost sounds human.

RE: Hello everyone
I'm trying to get a few pics of Zoe up. I'm not too savvey in the tech area.

Hello everyone
I am Terry from Florida. My dog is so adorable. She is 1/2 Basenji & 1/2 rough coat Jack Russel. She's white and fawn, going on 4 years old. She does bark, has a curled tail, furrowed brow, and is so beautiful. I got her at aspca in Fl. she was 10 months old, and very timid. She cowered at any loud noise, was afraid of men, and couldn't stand the word "come or bad." She cowered and tucked her tail. It was heartbreaking. Now she is so happy! We are very well bonded. She's come such a long way, and I'm very proud of her.
