  • Baroo, baroo; I'm 50 (thank-you, Basenji Foruams for your birthday wishes) now and, that AARP has sent me an application and I'm getting calls from "I've fallen' and can't get up' people. If they only knew how young my B makes me feel. :0


  • Happy Birthday! You have to stay spry to keep up with a B! They keep you young– and neat. :)


  • Happy birthday, and Baroo to you! If you think your B makes you feel young, wait until you are 72 - with a B and a half, they are keeping my muscles strong, making me walk, and wondering how long this can last! LOL !


  • Happy Birthday! 50…you're still a baby!


  • I have you beat with the AARP app. They sent me that application twice when I was only 21 or 22. Had to call them up and explain they were a tad too early ;)


  • When my mother (many years ago, btw, I am 56) turned 50, one of my nieces told her she was "half a hundred" and she got mad. LOL I told her it sounded cute. She said "Wait til YOU'RE "half a hundred"!" I still think it's cute. Happy Half a Hundred!


  • "half a hundred" Nice!

    Thanks all, I'm thinking when i get out of the work force…..another or 2 B's. I will have time for them. I just want to see them play and be the B's that they are, My current B is the most mellow thing you have ever seen. I got him at 5 years, don't know what his sitch was , but i can't imagine such a laid back 'B'

    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?

    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.

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.

    @Patty: When I have to take those of mine that are phased by vet visits I also make sure I include an interesting walk near the surgery. In that way they know that the visit is just a stop on the way to the walk. Oh what a great idea! I'll definitely use this. Thanks! :)
