Bloomsburg weekend

Basenji Talk

  • Spent the weekend in Bloomsburg at a show. We didn't do any good with the dogs in the ring, but I had fun.:) I got to meet another fellow forum member.:)

    I met forum member srjeeper and his wife yesterday in Bloomsburg.

    Srjeeper is a long time B owner and has recently added a second B rescue to his fold.:)
    We enjoyed walking around the vendor area and oh yes the show itself….....it was a fun day with some crummy weather, so many beautiful dogs.....wow!

    Thanks to You and Mrs. Srjeeper for taking the time to meet up with us , helping us with the dogs and spending part of your day with our little group;) .

    Special dogs, special people.:cool:


  • Bummer about the show but it's ALWAYS super cool :cool: to meet a B FORUM member :D

    Yeah, after the first two, breed and group I was starting to think we had a chance, I thought , if he keeps this up…... But of course.. It was funny, he just would not stand still , I kept having to get up and do a turn and return to position and he would be ok and then just when the judge was passing by.... Again..... Of course it didn't help that it was on grass, and there were ants! They kept biting his legs and he kept jumping up and I had to take them off of him and move to avoid them... It was horrible. There are always ants Herr when its on grass!!!!

    Nice cold chocolate ice cream, you have the best excuse ever to indulge. Hope you feel better soon. We have always found boys to be sweeter, the girls are more pragmatic and practical (was that subtle enough?). Anne in Tampa

    @Duke: I am curious if anyone knows … In Africa how many B's is or was in a normal size pack? I found this, very interesting indeed Jill. http://www.basenjicompanions.org/articles/zaire.html Basenjis were everywhere. In an average native village of about 120 people, there would be about 50 Basenjis roaming loose on the farms of the village. An average farming/hunting family might have 8 to 12 Basenjis living with them in a small pack. Ann said there were never any serious fights. There was a fair amount of jostling and jockeying for rank, which was carried out by growling and stiff-legged dominance displays. A good deal of shoving and body-slamming occurred, but they mostly seemed to settle in to their places within the pack, which was usually headed by a strong, alpha male. Ann speculated that the lack of fighting may have been because they were all loose and were not crowding each other. Occasionally, a minor scrap would break out over food, with the tidbit usually being grabbed by a third Basenji who was not in the fray. Males mated with many females; there was no paired mating behavior.
  • What a weekend.
