    After a year of jumping through hoops to try and get our little lady to yodel, she is very stingy with them. We were so excited when our little boy Chief yodeled yesterday and 2 times today!!!!

    He and Zoey are getting along very well she almost seems to mother him at times. The cat is another story. Twice now when Chief tryed to get close to him our cat swiped at him with his paws. You would think our cat had claws the way the pup screamed and cowered. Zoey went rushing over to make sure he was ok, after all only she can snap at him I guess.

    of course I'm comfortable

    So fun..I tried everything to get Otis to yodel ( he is 15 months now) and every now and then he let's one out, more as a surprise to himself and us..unless he is crated, then he yodels full out and our other 3 dogs (non basenjis) joins him and it is a this huge orchestra going on…to funny.

    I love his name, lets hope Chief keeps up his yodels.Our last Basenji's kennel name was Chief Yogel.
    I bet it's lovely to see him and Zoey together. Like you we have Cats. The other evening Malaika was racing around the room whilst our large Tabby, Jerry lay over hanging the settee. He hates when she rushes around and began to stalk her whilst still up on the settee, he crouched down at either side, where ever he thought she'd appear next, also doing lots of spitting. She suddenly saw him and screamed, she obviously read the murderous intent in his eyes.

    Hi @Vesna, it’s interesting you say that about the spay. Our tri-color actually just got spayed this week and her coat shed before that. I noticed small amount of black hair growing in where she shed, hopefully it grows back. What phase is your tri-color at? Did this just happen?

    Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.
