Another ice cube lover here. Kipawa totally loves them. We make sure though that he cannot see that they are coming out of the fridge water dispenser area. He is as smart as a whip and I fear he would figure it out. He also gets about 3 - 4 ice cubes in his water (fresh twice daily).
What is your favorite color pattern?
-
Black and white is the color I was first attracted to and is my favorite but I have come to really like all the colors.

Arti is the most handsome B & W I have seen followed by Jasper of Basenji Park.
Youngandtired-actually Jasper is a brindle…it's Willy that's the GORGEOUS b/w

Okay, I was hesitant to reply to this thread (other than to compliment all of your dogs!), but I guess I will weigh in:
I have always loved the R/Ws - I "ordered" one (LOL), but the one bitch didn't take and there were only R/W males. That's how we ended up with Nala, our beautiful tri.
I have to say that now, since joining this forum, I really could not decide which color I like best. They are all beautiful and each dog is unique and special with their own personalities and personally, I'd take them all!!! -
Seems judges favor Reds from my experience.
No one talks about Trindles?
That's one combination I really do not like (sorry if someone here has one)you going to have to show me some fantastic ones!

go here to see a fabulous trindle…if it doesn't take you directly to his page go to "Tazi" on the scroll bar on the left.
I don't mind trindles...I have seen some great ones. I think if the stripes aren't REALLY clearly defined in the tan, it just looks kinda murky...so that detracts from the look.

Sophie's sire is a trindle and I think he is quite handsome. A real sweetheart too.
-
Christy - lovely looking tri! I like it as well. Can't say i've seen one like it before.
just a question… what is the little grey thing by his tail?
-
My least favorite color is Trindle, while I can appreciate a good dog regardless of colow, I don't want a Trindle, I am too partcial to Tri's to accept the muddy color of a Trindle…against the clear color of a Tri... but again... that is me... and yes it is only color... but we all have our preferences...
-
If it's a Basenji I like em all! I've had tri ,red/wht and blk. No brindle yet.

Thank you! He's my buddy.
The little grey thing is one of my past hairless kittens.
Kind of like a little alien.
He enjoyed unraveling Squiggys tail and watching it roll back up.Furless cats and barkless dogs….who would have thought up that

And even with that preference it didn't stop you from co-breeding a litter with a trindle sire. Having a preference for a color doesn't mean we can't appreciate a dog of a different color and even use those dogs in a breeding program.

So it's Willy, anyways BB knew what I meant, he knows which B&W is the most handsome, he has ribbons to prove it, he is so beautiful, I want one someday, maybe, I really love R & W too.

Tanza, that pic of "stickem up" is SOOOO hilarious! I literally laughed out loud. Thanks for adding that!
While I too love all Basenji's and would seriously take one in every color- I still have preferences. I like the reds with white blazes on their faces the most. Tri's come in second place for me- but it seems like some of their faces are better looking than others and I can't figure out what makes it that way- it's got to be slight variations in their markings. I'll have to study pics side by side. But I love their unique markings. I really wanted a brindle, but my hubby doesn't care for the color. I agree with BBoy that when their stripes are clearly defined, they look really exotic. Black & whites are probably my least favorite- I don't know why but I feel like they look more ordinary than the others. That is stupid, I know. All Basenji's are still better looking than any other dogs though! Holy Basenji snob!!
And Lexi was my first love, but she is what we call a "mouse dog"… because she is SOOOOO petite. She has a really small face, tiny frame, and even daintier paws! I think she has better white markings than Miles though. (Miles's blaze is off center) And I love that Lexi has only two freckles- right on her nose. I think of them as little beauty marks. Sexy Lexi!!
Okay, okay… Lexi's pretty much the super model of Basenji's now... she's has so many photo shoots, it's hilarious! When I pull out the camera, she'll run and pose... Cracks every body up!
I think Miles is a much more handsome Basenji. He's at the opposite end of the spectrum though- the biggest R/W male I've seen! He has a much more substantial head than Lexi. And their ears are pointed in slightly different directions. He's nearly impossible for me to pick up though- he's gotten SOOOO heavy now!! HAM MAN!
Everyone has such beautiful dogs! I really love them all!!

Obsession. The first step is admitting it.
