I've hunted deer with my basenji in emergency situations during archery season. She has helped me find several wounded deer in the woods after dark. Basenjis are easily distracted by other trails and other deer scents so you need to make them associate the smell of deer blood with getting a raw venison treat. My basenji found a deer for me the first time I tried it with her. Most dogs need extensive training for this but she picked it up in 10 minutes. She has helped me a great deal. If there is no blood on the ground however it'd be tough depending on the wind direction, and they usually get distracted by diverging deer trails if there is no blood to follow.
Finland says "hi"

Finally I managed to enter the Forums and also to create a profile.
The story shortly;
I am a 33 old female (mother of 2) from Finland and in my childhood home I had a papillon. In my 20-s me and my hubby had 2 lovely Boxer males, and the older one died a year ago at the age of 11. Basenjis had cought my eye since the 90s, you know Pippa (Borasus Juel Of The Sun) :p
I became friends with Tiina Taavitsainen and up to date we have 3 beautiful Basenjis; an Aussie import bitch Ch. Afrikenji Hot Sumabreeze aka Tuuli, lovely half Englishman Ch. Bulldobas No Regrets aka Timon and a lovely yearling daughter of Tuuli, Bulldobas Crown Jewel aka Maisa.
Have to say that this breed has totally stolen the hearts of both me and my hubby
The hobbies with our dear dogs that we do are mainly shows and some lure-coursing.
So this is my "hi" to everyone!
