@donc said in Leaving Your B While Traveling:
also leave them overnight as well, just to get Layla used to having you be gone. Second best option is to find a more commercial version.
Of course if you could find another dog/Basenji owner you trusted this might be the best option.
When I cannot take my Basenji girl with me when I travel, I leave her in boarding with my local vet. I feel better knowing she is there in case she needs medical attention while I am gone.
What a beautiful Tri-color Basenji,
28 pounds for a male Basenji is not unusal. His markings definitely resemble a Basenji.
My adult 8 year female still like to play with and destroy the cardboard paper towel roles. She throws it around and then likes to shred it. Whee in Texas? I am in Killeen and love to find another Basenji owner close where we could meet occassionly and let our Basenjis play.
A typical Basenji, always smelling and lookiing.
Definitely a fine looking Basenji.
@jkent What a beautiful girl.
Definitely has some of the makings of a Basenji mix. His small size is also an indication of a possible Basenji mix.
I have taught my female Basenji the sit command and I think I have achieve a miracle. She does what she wants when she wants and on her schedule, a typical Basenji.
22 to 24 for females and 24 to 26 for males is what the standard call for.
My Basenji femle does not like the water at all, that's why I take her to the vet office for her baths. Charles
He definitely sleeps like my Basenji does.
I walk my Basenji twice a day. I also take her to a dog park two or three times a week where she can be off the leash and play with other dogs. It also is a large area where she can exercise her legs and really run at full pace.
I have a six year old Basenji female and I have never had a more affectionate dog. She loves to be petted, lay in my lap and have her belly rubbed. At night she sleeps under the covers with me and some part of he body has to be touchiing mine. Basenjis were tribal dogs in Africa and were very loyal to their masters who fed them.
