    Wow, Greece!!! It never ceases to amaze me how many people on here are from so many places across the world! I love hearing from all of them and love having so many on the forums, WELCOME! I am a first time dog owner also, my husband chose Bella for me for my birthday… and, yes, she is a challenging breed. But I wouldn't trade her for the world, I love her so. It has helped a lot to be here on the forums and learn about this wonderful, quirky, beautiful breed and it's distinct personality. Feel free to ask questions and post pictures of your baby (hint, hint).:D

    Welcome to the forum, Mutabaruga has beautiful basenjis. Their J-litter was a very nice litter. I don't have a basenji yet, but I have looked very much at Mutabaruga Basenjis.

    Mr Eko is very cute!! Can't wait for more pics of him

    Welcome to the forum, you will enjoy it here and make lots of friends.
    It doesn't matter that you have never had a Dog before because Basenjis are certainly not like other Dogs.
    They are wonderful creatures, can be naughty and a challenge but if you fall under their spell you will want more, lol.

    I know too many puppies and dogs injured or killed due to collars left on unattended. Not worth the risk.

    Integrating Basenji with house cats

    @jhewell What more is there to say ? You have put it brilliantly ! A friend who has Persian Blues, I think they are called, and Basenjis operates on a two tier level. The cats are fed on the kitchen work-surface and enter and leave the house via the kitchen window onto a garden table. Once outside they are more than able to take care of themselves. Indoors the cats have perches and climbing frames the dogs don't manage to fathom. All is perfectly harmonious. No cat dares come into my garden. They haven't for years, through endless and changing packs of Basenjis. Occasionally one will come down the drive and sit in the sun by the cars but they never try to come over any gate into Basenji home turf. You are going to have endless 'fun' ! Good luck -

    @jkent I have certainly never even heard that advice and would not have taken it if I had. It depends on the conditions underfoot, the breed, the size of the puppy (some breeds have very large ones !), off leash or regimented walking, stopping to admire the view / watch the puppy socialise with dogs he/she meets. SO many things to take into consideration. I wouldn't pay much attention to generic advice from the KC. Our breed is 'different' !

    Potty Training Difficulty - 12-15 mo old Basenji

    @seattlebasenji said in Potty Training Difficulty - 12-15 mo old Basenji: *** Any ideas about how I can effectively potty train him? *** You mention that you take your dog to the same area when you take him out to 'toilet', I suppose thinking that he'll associate that spot as his bathroom(?). But I think you would be more successful if you took your dog out for long walks. Your dog needs exercise anyway, and movement begets movement (if you know what I mean). Besides, walking is a very social activity for dogs. They walk in packs and when you walk with your dog, you become part of their pack. Some people like two half hour walks each day. Personally, I try to get one really long walk in every day (weather permitting), typically 3 miles or 90 minutes. Sometimes shorter, sometimes longer. (I got bored walking the same route. Now we go different places (local dog parks, woods, and such) and explore new routes. Mix it up a little. The walk provides time for the two of you to bond. It's an opportunity for you to reinforce training, provide encouragement (and praise). And it allows your dog to eliminate (or toilet), naturally, without pressure.

    @creambasenji said in New Puppy Advice: She's 9 months and 8.5 pounds. Doesn't seem she will be getting any bigger This must be a typo. 9 months or 9 weeks? At any rate, I'd love to see a picture of a cream Basenji, toy or not.

    Thanks, Yes I ve been feeding him with regular feeding times and leaving the food for 20 min than removing. He always eats better at night than in the morning. We dont get any of the brands of food that I read about here. We get the more comercial brands , like Eukanuba, Science Diet and Royal Canin. Ive been feeding Science Diet, but I prefer Royal Canin, thinking of switching but later on. Thanks for the info
