When my daughter was pregnant she would stop by once a week and Izzy would always sniff her all over , most of all her stomach and around that area, her husband was afraid of Izzy being around the baby when he came , because Izzy is not a real friendly basenji especially to my son in law. Izzy has never had any aggression toward my grandson, my grandson is 7 now and Izzy is always there to protect him, when the grandson goes down the stairs Izzy is just one step in front of him like he is protecting him from falling. I don't know about other basenjis but Izzy loves kids, but not a lot of adults.

We are now the proud new owner of Shilagh Doe. We adopted her through BRAT. Today she came home and is getting familiar with everything. I think Mick has already fallen in love with her as we have too. She is sweet and loving. We look forward to a long happy life with her.
I will post pics tomorrow.

Yaaayyy!! Thank you for rescuing! Great that Mick took to her right away. Ours bonded really quickly too (though we still have snarky moments). What everyone says is true: basenjis love a b companion.
What was her name on the BRAT site?
Can't wait to see photos!

A very special thanks to Jen Gonzalez, Kim Riddle, and Jane Repko. You are all special people and I will always be grateful to you for Shilagh. BRAT is very lucky to have you all.
Her name was Isis. We truly wanted a name that fits with our family and she really is Shi, very docile and sweet. Enjoy the pics.
