Who's Basenjis' actually howl/yodel?


  • Lenny's breeder can make one of her dogs howl on command and then they all join in… Mojo (the ring leader) is off to the left of the screen...

  • Layla talks constantly, talks back too when she's in trouble she howls all the time. Caira growls a lot becuase shes a cuddle hop and queen of our house. and Ramsey talks a little and every once in awhile hell belt out a howl but he is loud and sound beautiful.


  • My dad can get Senji to start howling, if he mimics a howl. Sometimes, my brother will join in too. It's hilarious to see 3 "men" howling together. My mom gets mad because she thinks all that howling is hurting Senji's vocal chords. I also noticed that Senji is more vocal when there is a full moon.


  • I can only get my kids to "talk" on command. I try howling and yodeling to get them to start and they just look at me like I'm an idiot. My husband does too. lol… 😉

    Cute, cute, cute video!!! 😃 😃 😃


  • @Duke:

    Duke makes sounds very similar to Kwame in this video - ONLY - when I "cock-a-doodle-doo" like a rooster. The longer and louder the "doodle-doo", the more sounds Duke makes. I feel like/look like an idiot doing it, so no video. :o Daisy doesn't do or mumble anything when we "sing" - just watches. 🙂

    Nexa and Leo thank you for this tip, they thought I was crazy last night when I started "cock-a-doodle-dooing". Leo cocked his head sideways, probably thinking his owner has gone off the deep end:D Not a peep from either of them.


  • I played Lenny's YouTube yodeling to EL D today – boy did he go nuts. First he twisted his head so many ways to try and figure out where the calls were coming from then he sat and cried (never did howl along) 😃


  • It seems to depend on the dog. Male Louie has yodelled once in his life (2 years old). But little female Shelby is very vocal. She always gives us one big baroo when we first come home from work. 🙂
