Welcome SUNNY blue


  • Sunny-Blue is a 15 month old rescue I got last December. They told me she is Jack Russell/chihuahua mix but she has Basenji ears and deer like shape. When my friend asked me about her curled tail last Friday I went online to find out what dogs have them. Sure enough it was the Basenji. The more I learned about the Basenji I realized she is one. She howls, doesn't like water, has a little attitude and a deer like shape. Plus she runs at top speed. She is easy to train but has to think twice before she does anything you ask her. She LOVES to play and will run a game on you if you let her. She is such a joy. (Yes, I have a sense of humor). I feel blessed to have her and am not surprised she is of a special breed.

    It took our two a little less than 2 weeks or so until Kaia was really cuddling up to Loki. Of course, as the girl she was determined to get her way no matter what! I think it took about a month until he started to groom her, which he still does now and almost a year for her to start grooming him which doesn't happen too often. I'm pretty sure she thinks that she's the princess and should be pampered, not doing the pampering. Definitely keep a camera nearby, it's always when I don't have one that I need it the most.

    Fran, I think you are a wonderful Basenji Mum. The photos are lovely and Kipawa is obviously going to be a well-rounded boy with all his different exepriences.
