I have an alpha female basenji and brought a newborn into our family. I was in the hospital for four days (my in laws stayed with dog and horse), when we came home, we had my Mom bring her new boyfriend. He was a great distraction, but also allowed me some alone time with Cricket. When they left, she noticed the baby in the bassinet and was a bit concerned.
She adapted to the baby, but I don't leave them alone just in case. Cricket is not nearly as jealous as she was, now that he drops food for her at the table, but she did get a bit jealous for a few weeks.
While I was pregnant, I was told that 'the test' was to play baby crying videos on YouTube. How the dog reacts will tell you how they will interact with the baby. Cricket beat the crap out of my phone when I tried… So not a great test! 🙂

Not the best picture, but this statue is pretty cool and I just had to have it.This is some of my personal art work:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Andrea may remember this one.:D
I wanted Andrea(Quercus) to post a picture of her Af pup. Well it was taking longer than I was willing to wait. I sent Andrea a note and told her I was going to post this picture on the forum and tell everyone that this might be what Andrea's pup looks like.:D
Andrea had a giggle and told me my art wasn't bad…...so here ya go!:D -
Love the statue…the stick figure is quite nice - I myself am a MagnaDoodle "arteeest"....LOL!
Seriously though...great work! -
That Casting is amazing!
I would of bought that in a heart beat as well. I have been to a lot of African Art dealers/stores and they never have basenji's or even Cape Hunting Dogs.

Anne in TampaI have not painted Basenjis for awhile but am feeling the urge to pick up the brush again.
