Basenji brooing in their sleep

Off Topic
  • S

    Last night my little basenji girl, Shasta, who was asleep under the covers,
    put her head up and brooed herself awake.:eek:
    Lou and I were reading and just cracked up.
    I so wonder what she was dreaming about.:rolleyes:
    Does this ever happen to your b's?

    Yep, Squiggy does this once and awhile. The first time it really scared me (live alone…). He didnt wake himself up, he just stopped. The next few times it startled me, but I just laid there and listened and smiled. Squiggy is such a quiet dog, it was funny to here him baroo so loud and for such a long time.

    It is scary when they do it in the dead of night.
    The first time my b's did it, both hubby and I went around the
    house with flashlights to see if there was something wrong.

    our basenji's have dreams, sometimes scream, wimper, cry & grunt in their sleep.

    I take Blaze into the senior's lodge to go visit Grandma (in a town of less than 300), sure enough, there's a gentleman there that knew what Blaze was. He was an archeologist back in his day. His last dig was in 1976 deep in the Congo, and he stayed with villagers and witnessed the hunts and the lives of the basenjis in the village. He told me about one hunt. The basenjis chase antelope into huge nets that are strung up in the forest like barriers. The nets are handmade with ropes and vines. Some of the hunters stay near the net and hide, the majority of the hunters take the basenjis to the water hole and wait. When the antelope arrived, they release the basenjis and chase behind almost soundlessly. You can really hear the gourd bells, which are mostly around the loins. The antelope hit the net and are shot with arrows. The basenjis have to get beaten off… they get a little too excited. He has some amazing pictures. I'm trying to borrow his album to scan, but he's not comfortable with that idea. He loves Blaze though and he knows the african word for the breed which I can never remember or pronounce.

    There is a commonly used dog in TV and commercials that is either a Rat Terrier, or a corgi/terrier/basenji/chi mix….I have seen in on law and order, and some other more recent commercials...might be that one. Or it could be a real B...I haven't seen either of the ones mentioned.
