  • I found this site and was quite delighted. We have a just over
    2 year old Basenji mix, we think with Lab, but she is very much
    Basenji. She is MacKenzie. I will post a pic when I can, she is about
    50 lbs, does bark (must be the Lab) and whoever had the pups before
    they turned them into a shelter, they docked the tails.
    She was brought in by my daughter as it was her and her boy friends
    dog at 14 weeks to socialize with my dogs, a Siberian Husky and a
    Malamute, and she never left. She is a complete family dog. She was
    brought up with sled dogs and she thinks she is one. I have lost the
    Malamute and just lost the oldest Sibe, but she has a just under two
    female red and white Siberian companion also They are the best of friends
    and working partners. I am in Southern California and in the fall, winter
    and spring we do dog scootering. These girls run together like life partners
    and beat a lot of the sibe only teams. They both love the snow, again the
    lab in her. She is such a delight, so different from my sled dogs but so
    compatible. We hope to get in on some discussions and will share pics
    of the girls working. Their working team name is Girls beat feet.
    I almost forgot the joy in listening to both of them howl at sirens. Can't
    be beat.

    @julia87 How much do you know about Basenjis? Have you met any? It's highly recommended to learn as much as possible about them before making a decision to acquire one. This would be a good place to start.

    Most people incorrectly use the terms dominant and dominance with regard to dogs. Here is a good blog post by Dr. Sophia Yin on the topic. http://drsophiayin.com/blog/entry/dominance_in_dogs_is_not_a_personality_trait

    Yep, when it comes to Basenjis, it pretty much is a small world. Humvee, aka Tex Son, (he got his call name because he was the biggest puppy in his litter) has had a great show career, and you couldn't ask for a sweeter temperament - although the whole litter was was fabulous. His mom was a total love, and his dad is still incredibly handsome and devil-may-care at almost 11 years old. Hum loves to play with puppies and hang out in the house with his human mom. So although I haven't met Reba, I'm sure he will pass on his love bug genes! We will be hoping the news is good and you soon have a noisy, lovable troublemaker in your life. Terry
