Basenji Park

  • Ok now you need a covered potty run and send us the plans! I just had to stand out in the cold rain to MAKE ours go. For some reason they won't go in the rain unless I'm out there with them. If the neighbors wouldn't complain, I'd probably figure out how to! …I also want a double entrance into the fence -- like at dog parks. My wife looked at me like I had green goo coming out of my ears. It seemed like a good consideration... ohh, I could have a treat dispencer like at petting zoos for the kids!

    I haven't mastered the rainy day Basenji yet….....if I do, I'm writting a book and hope to be wealthy.:) :) Good luck with that;) HUH?

    Wacko dogs. But yet they like the snow.....go figure?

  • Oh thank goodness!! I was starting to think I might build an underground park for them if they were going to be just as bad about the snow as they are with the rain. C3 absolutely refuses to MOVE if it's raining. He's even tried to "fake" potty so that I can take him back inside.

    I thought the snow was going to be just as brutal. Finally something to look forward to.

  • that is one awesome yard! Our Tut & Zoe would have a blast in a yard that size.

  • Your yard is so beautiful and I am sure it keeps the Basenjis busy for hours. I live in a condo and wish I had a closed in fence area for Cali to run around. I try to take her to my brothers once a week so she can run around leash free.
    I am not sure if there are any Dog parks in Louisville, Ky area, but I will have to check. About the rain, I know this sounds strange, but if I use an umbrella when it is raining Cali will go out and do her business quickly. She hates to get wet and especially her feet. I live in a wooded area and there is a certain section that has a lot of leaves on the ground due to the seasons changing and she will stand on the leaves to potty. My neighbors look at me like I am crazy:)

    Crazy…...nah.:) Just a dedicated Basenji owner.;)

  • Your yard is like a person and 'senji paradise! VERY nicely done! How do you winter over so many tropicals? If you say you have a greenhouse I'm going to turn as green w/ envy as the Grinch! ;) :D Simply amazing and so breathtaking! You've done an amazing job!

  • Damn, Lux was looking over my shoulder and saw the B Park. He want's to know when we're going. THANKS ALOT! ;)

  • BB…Just let us all know when the Grand Openning is!!!!

  • Thanks Mark, welcome to the forum. Put your snow shoes on and trek on down to PA.:D Sadly it's not as nice and colorful at Basenji Park this time of year.:(
    It's a labor of love and I can't wait for the warm weather to return so I can plant more stuff!:eek:

    @creambasenji Please start a new topic/thread in Member Introductions when you upload an image of your "cream" basenji. That way, more people will see it. (thanks!)

    She is really cute though I don't see Basenji. Like Shirley said, only a DNA can tell you much for certain.

    After striking out with my first 2 B's I figured I'd give my other love a try! She is wonderful so far, potty training is kicking our butt..as with any puppy. We have only had her a week yesterday so I'm sure this is gonna be fun! She is giving us (my gf and I, our 3 cats and Sid) a run for our money! Sid is very jealous though, which is what we wanted. We need him to desire attention instead of just laying around all day long. Wish us luckkkk with the ol' man.

    Thank you very much for the info. I will have to try the time out. He was crate trained as far as being house broken, but now when I put brownie in the crate all he does is whine.. I do have 2 older dogs. one that plays with him and the other, well he just growls at brownie. The mother that was there when I got Brownie was a white shepard, maybe that is where the broad nose comes in.
