    Hello! So a few weeks ago I posted that I was moving to Connecticut. Now plans have changed and I'm moving to New York. Most likely the Westchester area. I'm excited about the work opportunity I have there, but sadly, Connecticut would have been much better for me housing wise, I could have afforded a house with a fenced in yard for the B's! But now, I am looking for an apartment that is dog friendly in White Plains or somewhere close by. I'm finding most apartments don't even allow dogs! So I'm getting pretty frusterated by the whole thing.

    Is anyone from the White Plains area? Any insight on how to find pet-friendly accomodation? I would ideally like to find a place that is a house divided into apartments, with access to a fenced in yard. So far, it's proving to be highly unlikely that I'll find it. :(

    Well actually having a besnji can wok in your favor. Most apartments have a weight limit of a max of 25lbs.

    Here are some links that may help you

    Oh man..Westchester is pricey :( I work in Manhattan & live in NJ. Could you possibly find something in NJ??

    Or perhaps a place over the Tappan Zee Bridge which is Rockland County or Orange County which both are still in NY except on the other side of the Hudson River. Prices are usually better in this area.

    You can send me a PM if you'd like to chat more!

    Sorry, but I'd most likeley go for a beagle, that was my very first dog and he was awesome!! Got him off the street…my first 'rescue'...after that, crap, can I say this...a cat.....OUCH!!!...Yeah, I was very lucky with both my B pets, but as I get older, I'm not sure I would be able to handle a young B. However, as I look forward to retiring I'm more than happy to have multiple B's in my home. :) Older ones, like me :)

    MacPack: Yes, I know bestiality isn't illegal here - how stupid, and they did mention that on the radio. Also, the whole gang probably would platonically marry Topper, he is such a dear. My Shaye would REALLY like to marry Topper.

    Hunters with their Basenjis

    I take Blaze into the senior's lodge to go visit Grandma (in a town of less than 300), sure enough, there's a gentleman there that knew what Blaze was. He was an archeologist back in his day. His last dig was in 1976 deep in the Congo, and he stayed with villagers and witnessed the hunts and the lives of the basenjis in the village. He told me about one hunt. The basenjis chase antelope into huge nets that are strung up in the forest like barriers. The nets are handmade with ropes and vines. Some of the hunters stay near the net and hide, the majority of the hunters take the basenjis to the water hole and wait. When the antelope arrived, they release the basenjis and chase behind almost soundlessly. You can really hear the gourd bells, which are mostly around the loins. The antelope hit the net and are shot with arrows. The basenjis have to get beaten off… they get a little too excited. He has some amazing pictures. I'm trying to borrow his album to scan, but he's not comfortable with that idea. He loves Blaze though and he knows the african word for the breed which I can never remember or pronounce.

    What an interesting group of pictures. I don't get a good feeling when looking at these pictures - I get a feeling that the animals look as if they are being exploited. The dog at the bottom right does looks a little like a basenji or pharoah hound or a mix of the two.
