@tanza Oh yes. I give her 1/3 cup blue buffalo puppy kibble, 1 tbsp wet blue buffalo puppy, 1 tbsp yogurt or cottage cheese, (alternating) and if I se any sign of dandruf or dryness in her fur, I also add in a few drops of olive oil. I have chicken and vegetables every night, and I've been preparing my chicken unseasoned since I got rogue so I can use it for training on occasion, so sometimes if she's being stubborn I'll bury some tiny shreds of chicken in her food to get her to eat, or sometimes I'll do the same thing with some other high value treats. I don't feed her in a crate, but I've moved her bowl into my room so she's lessdistracted at mealtime, and she has a safe place to eat when my niece comes over. Rogue plays nice with my niece outside, but indoors, she's kind of a really big squeeky toy, so we have to watch her constantly. I also, on the rarest occasions, will give her a little tiny pinch of american, or sharp cheddar cheese. That seems to get her really excited. She doesn't get excited about cottage cheese, but american or sharp cheddar? She goes nuts. fagedabodit. And she get chews and kongs in the crate, but never meals. And she doesn't spend much time in there anymore since she's been house trained. She just sleeps in my bed. In fact, she's passed out next to me right now.
Basenji meeting
-
Last saturday we (Tsjoe007, Buana and I) had arranged a basenji meeting. Of course.. it rained.. We doubted if we could really have a nice walk in the rain.. but after 'some' raindrops the sky cleared and we had a lovely walk in the forrest I have to compliment our four intact males, who got along very well!
Here a 'small' selection of the photos BF took. Baby B is Bendji, Brindle boy is Chafuko, Buana is the one with the same collar as Chaf and Tillo is the one with the hound collar.

Fantastic pics Janneke, so nice to see them all getting on with each other:D

Wonderful pics!! The last one is fabulous. The shadow/light contrast and that precious face is just delightful. I keep going back to look again.

Great photos. It's always nice to see a group of basenjis having fun.

If you're still in Paris, we could meet in Belgium.
or: 29 August there is a German speciality in Trechtingshausen, maybe that's an option? Basi will be there as well, her mom is the judge.Otherwise you have to come to the Netherlandsโฆ :p

Bendji was so, so, sooooooo cuteโฆ I tried to steel him, but Walter was watching him too closely..

I agree with Janneke, we had a WONDERFUL afternoon last Saturday ! It was our first meeting ever but it seemed to us that we knew each other already for a very long time !
So we agreed to organize these meetings more often in the near future with Janneke and her BF (the very talented photographer "Mr. J") ;), Kim and Kas, Nicole (my LW) and myself and maybe some other Basenji owners we know. As I read in this thread, Schouiffy also is interested in joining us but then the question is : where shall we meet, in Holland, Belgium, France or Switzerland :D:D. BTW I looove those mountain walks so my choice is clear !
Tribute to "Mr J": fantastic series, congrats !
Greetz from Belgium -

We had a great time and doesn't matter were we come together the next timeโฆ We'll come!!!!!!!!!
I'll post my pics as soon as possible (first put them on photobucket of course...)
But.. They are not SO beautiful as this pics... -
Awesome photos!! I love the one of the Basenji mid air!!
