  • Jennifer you took my post! He does look like he is smiling! What a happy result!


  • Just great! What a wonderful decision you made and I'm so pleased it turned out for the best!


  • Did you get Bitty from a breeder or a rescue?

  • Congratulations on a great "failed foster" experience! Perfect fits like that are wonderful, he is a lucky little boy to have landed with you!


  • All of our babies have been rescues, we,ve had Bitty 5 years, Baroo will have been with us for 3 in February and now we have Baroo's "Buddy". LOL, his call name was Tigger but I've been calling him little buddy so much he's starting to answer to Buddy.

  • First Basenji's

    There was a Kansas breeder with brindle B's that recently got "out" of the breed (supposedly). I wonder if he came from that kennel, since the call name is familiar? Whatever his provenance, I think "Buddy" hit the jackpot. =)


  • Bitty looks familiar to me. I have been able to recognize a few of my Arnie's younger relatives on BRAT's website. Do you have any history on her and how old is she?

  • No ennifer, we don't know anything about Bitty. The young couple who owned her before us didn't give us any history. They called her 'Casey' and all I can say is that they were not true Basenji people, weren't familiar with any of the breeds quirks. They said that she was just over 2 when we got her and wew've had her for 5 years, in February. The poor baby had a number of problems when we adopted her, the main ones being an extreme attack response if you moved your hand quickly near her, plus the same type ov response if you touched her when she was covered by a blanket, indicating someone used to cover her and then hit her.


  • When I hear stories like yours I smile. For things like this, I believe there is a much higher power working its magic. So glad you and your trio are happy together!


  • That's awesome! Third foster was a charm!

    And I think that clicker training is the BEST way to train a Basenji. -Joanne

    @nobarkus: That video was taken by Susan Kamen Marsicano of APU Basenjis (since 1973). I've been friends with Susan since 94. She has Basenji off spring all over the world. She had 8 Basenjis, she just lost a 16 year old 2 days ago so now it's seven. She's a really good artist too. http://www.apubasenjis.com/ Really nice website! Thanks for sharing.

    I would suggest waiting until you get the little guy. Indi didn't have a name for abut 2 days. We had all these names in mind and none of them fit. Thats my two cents anyway (oh ya and because we did that I have a cool costume for him on haloween but I don't think I am going to get any cooperation on his end)
