Harrisburg show weekend

where is Willy?
That looked like a blast!
It was quite a dog shuffel all day long. We moved them around to different yards, rooms, vehicles, all in little groups. I think Willy and Jasper where down for a nap when these six where running loose.:D
I honestly don't know how someone deals with 20+ Basenji's on a daily basis…....wow!:eek:
Avongara Ojo, the dog from Africa was even back for a visit.

WOW - It looks like a herd of B's with the 6 running at end of video! It is a labor of love having so many. Can you imagine what would happen if they were left unsupervised? :eek: With just my 2, they are like perpetual toddlers. I've broken up many-many arguments over the months. I'm lucky that neither has landed in the vets office. (paws crossed) But they are so fun to watch when they're having fun running around and in play. I couldn't imagine dealing with more than two, let alone 6 or more. Bless you all that have patience.
I am curious if anyone knows … In Africa how many B's is or was in a normal size pack?

I was impressed that the six could run together, my 6 can't. All six where younger dogs, whether they continue to get along and can run together remains to be seen…...it was a mixed group, males and females.
-
Adorable! It must have been quite the ride! It must seem quiet now…
-
It was really hot so we moved them into the smaller shade yard. This is another short video of the 6 in the second yard, they had a good time searching everything.:)
-
That was cute too…I love how they move together...
-
This crew was the best to watch! They looked like a little herd of Bs all running in the same direction & doing the B 500 that was amazing :eek: :eek: It looked like a stampede!!
-
They look like they are having sooo much fun. I love the pic with their tongues hanging out. A good time was had by all, no doubt!!! Basenji Boy, why don't you move to TN and open a Basenji Park??? There are basenjis here, but they are few and far between!!

We'll have to send you a starter kit Jenn..some Basenji Park signs, tee shirts, poop bags:D …....maybe, Basenji Park Nashville country style.

Cool! The 2nd video was like watching an orchestrated school of fish the way the all turned and ran forward at the same time. Which one was the ring leader? Nice to see so many at once. Thanks for sharing.

One of the females….....go figure.:D
It was cool the way they all seemed to move once one did. I wonder if they had been more familar with the yards would they all stick together like that. Seemed to do the safety in numbers thing to me.
-
Hey Basenji Boy!! A starter kit??? Wouldn't it be easier for ME if you just moved down here???
You'd have to send a University of Tennessee starter kit though… we're in Knoxville. GO VOLS!!! :p

We need more Basenji Parks nationwide:D ….....weary travelers need a place to run their B's:)
Basenji Park, Knoxville sounds pretty cool to me, get in on the ground floor...........yes Go VOLS!
I'm thinking a Basenji Park Bed and Breakfest in New England. Basenji Park Tampa..... the possibilities are endless.

Let's see, Poland, Vermont and Tennesee…..still need a deep south, Midwest, Rocky Mountian and West coast.(north and south).
Kidding aside, a network of mutually agreed places to run a B doesn't sound all that bad.:D
-
That sounds like a great idea to me
Now all us B parents can all go on road trips knowing that we have a Basenji Rest Stop to run our Bs and have some good 'ol 'senji talk -
Might be the ONLY way for some of us to see more than one at a time!!! Wonder why I hear people say they know someone with Basenjis here in Knoxville, but yet you NEVER see them.?.?

I found this, very interesting indeed Jill.

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.
