When they are with their littermates and any adults, during play when they bite to hard, the one getting bite will scream at the biter… and adults will strongly correct... this is when they learn "soft" bite... so sounds like your Rocco did not get this... This happens if removed from the adults and/or other littermates too early... So as stated, all play stops... also, I suggest that if the bite is too hard, scream/yell very loud and then stop all play

Hi, I'm a proud(and poor) owner of 2 basenjis girls. Both came from the same litter from Australia. Both are 3 and the funny thing about them is Naomi is thin and GeeGee is fat (I know I'm being lame but the Basenjis I saw on the Net are pretty slim)

Welcome to the forums! We'd love to see some pics of your b's!

Welcom to the pack! We are addicted to pictures so when you get a chance please post a few. BTW, how did you manage to get Australian puppies into Singapore?

Could your heavy girl have a thyroid issue?
Its something to have checked out, if your worried. -

Welcome from me too! My dog is pretty fat but she also eats too much at times. Good luck .

Well, Gee Gee is 15kg while Naomi is 10Kg. GeeGee, I think is fat by nature because she was pretty chubby even as a pup. I imported them from a breeder in Australia and flew them over. I posted some pictures of them in the members' gallery. I try to downsize a photo which shows the contrast and post it there.
Cheers:D -
They look like they are perfectly matched - and neither one looks "fat".
