My Rosa wrote the "How To Be a Basenji DIVA" manuscript - as many rules there were, it was so worthy of a 'script' at the end! She, and all her offspring, had spring and fall heats, but I only bred her once in the spring. That produced one puppy, my Captain. She always ruled over her pups, except when Captain came along - she did what HE said when he was about 2 weeks old!
First Week with our Basenji
-
She obviously knew she was home when she got there and let out a big Baroo! Glad to see that everything is going well for you. B's do all sorts of funny things, shredding TP is just the tip of the iceberg. Good luck to her and you!
-
What a beautiful color she is! So awesome that you adopted
-
She looks like a doll and sounds like one too! Yes, the baroo was done to tell you how happy she was. As for the weird head positions, we get those here too! I think they are known as 'bendy heads' by many of us here.
-
Bendy heads, bendy body, the will smack you when you aren't paying attention-all kinds of lovely things. Congrats on the adoption.
-
She sounds like a charmer for sure!
-
What a lovely girl! She sounds all Basenji to me. congrats on your adoption!!
-
Thanks everyone…she is very cute...but she knows it too!!! She is a diva for sure....I'll share more pictures as soon as I can get her to sit still long enough to snap one
-
Sounds like you are having a good time with her.
Glad to see she is settling in and taking over
-
Congratulations! She is lovely, and obviously happy to be with you.
-
Beautiful Basenji! She looks like a Saavic too! That's so appropriate for a basenji: half Vulcan, half Romulan!
-
Haha!!! thanks so much! I'm glad you got the reference with her name!! We love Star Trek and couldn't think of a more appropriate name for her with those little pointy ears
-
Good luck on getting a picture when she is still, if she is anything like our 2 she won't be still very muvh. Our Bitty does this thing, when she comes up on the bed at bedtime she will flop down facing directly away from us and then bend her head back mover her shoulder to look at us.
