Yes!! Bowpi loves to "box" when she gets excited. But she doesn't have much follow-through. It's adorable. I'm not quite sure what she's thinking. I take it as an expression of her excitement and desire to be involved. She usually starts boxing when our Shiba tries to roughhouse with her, or when the Shiba is roughhousing with other humans – and she inserts herself into the mix.
Brain Games for a Basenji?

Miss Bliss received a puzzle similar as a get well gift.
It has given her something to do during the long hours in the crate.
The toy was designed in Sweden and made in China of (dog smart wood)!?
I think it is a bamboo plastic. Anyway, it is removed from her crate once the goodies are gone. I don't trust anything that goes in a mouth, human or canine,
that comes from China. Fortunately, I have been able to get all her gear,
except for a harness I recently purchased that required altering.
Back to bones. A lot of those greasy bones come from China. Beware -
We have theese for Willy, all of which she still at 9 months loves, and started on at around 12 weeks... below are links!

Love this thread. Taco is going through his teenage years and seems to have energy to burn at the minute I'm trying to come up with games for him. I have a puzzle very similar to the one in your picture @JENGOSMonkey and Taco loves it, but the more he plays with it, the better he gets and now only keeps him occupied for a few minues. I haven't tried an empty egg box yet, I like that idea.
I also use a snuffle mat sometimes for kibble and it keeps Taco entertained for 20 mins or so. And any games that involve using his nose really tire him out! So like hiding treats around the house and making him find them. He does it with his toys too.

I completely agree @Kembe; however, I might have been more exited if they'd mentioned Sabacc instead. No, Sabacc is not a Basenji, but it's a fun Star Wars game that's a bit like Poker, but completely different at the same time. Definitely a brain game. Logan won't play it with me darn it. He just wants to eat the Beskar betting pieces. It's the game Han Solo played against Lando Calrissian to win the Millennium Falcon, which is arguably THE best RV in the universe. My son and I play it. I wonder if I could win a Basenji in a game of Sabacc?

@jengosmonkey Dang, I didn't know that was a real game!!

I was born in Japan. I am half Japanese. Surprised I’d be utilizing my Japanese on the Basenji forum. Lol -

My kid and I went to Disneyland a while back and spent near two entire days just at Black Spire Outpost (aka Star Wars Land). We love it so much. That's when we scored a set of Sabacc cards. Didn't know it was a thing either till we saw the decks. We got to play a few hands with some cast members outside Ogga's Cantina, but the real treat was playing it inside the Cantina at one of the tables. We had a bunch of cast members crowded around us egging us on. Apparently there are tournaments and FaceBook groups dedicated to it. Anyway, here ya go...

@Kembe So, that's how you are multi-lingual! How many languages do you know?
@JENGOSMonkey Cool, thank you. Something new for me to do! My Covid list is growing: Learn how to play the guitar, speak Spanish, and play Sabacc!
