  • We are a young couple, both full-time workers and part-time students.
    Juniper is a brindle female we were blessed to receive from TarSha Basenjis in Arizona.
    She is now 5 months old. Fanconi tested normal but she started her first heat two weeks ago so that has been interesting…

    9 weeks

    Fishing story; "It was THIS big" - 12 weeks

    Squirrels aren't accustomed to tree-climbing dogs - 14 weeks

    Hiking - 15 weeks

    Just the other day

    Note for mods: I already submitted basically this same thread but it never got posted after the "review" by mods (since I'm a brand new member, I guess). Hope this one actually makes it through!

    Thank you for adopting this beauty. She looks so much like my first basenji.

    Aggression is an all encompassing term. As pointed out above, there is quite a range! It is not unusual for Basenjis to be dog aggressive. Mine is, and I just avoid other dogs because I know his intentions are not good. Some are same sex aggressive and fine with members of the opposite sex, and some may just be making a statement when they are leashed. If you describe what you are seeing more specifically I am sure lots of people will have common experiences and possible training fixes to share. I would love to see some pictures of Tucker, and welcome to the forum!

    My heart breaks reading your wonderful story of Dinah - it is so clear she is a huge part of your heart -you will have such wonderful memories of her when it is her time to give up the pain. I also do not believe dogs don't have souls - of course they do - the unconditional love they give, the way they try to help when you are emotionally suffering, the joy they get when they see you coming after a separation - all these and more are proof they are very soulful. A loving companion dog is God's gift. All our hearts are with you, and our tears flow with yours. God bless.
