Does your Basenji go umph?
-
Hahaha…Alani also makes a wide variety of noises. As well as the last one mentioned which is really very funny because every time a little toot comes out she acts like she's completely horrified and embarrased. She'll look all around then at us real quick to see if we noticed.:eek:
-
aww, jack can really be just cruel in that way, and smells are already a BIG thing with me bc im pregnant so when he gets the stinkies…between him and my hubby i need a gas mask...
-
I get a sound that sounds so mournful and just like he is saying ohhhhh nooooo it makes me laugh out loud. I get snoring and a little yodel when he is REALLY happy.
-
I get all kinds of noises outta Noobie…umph....to crying mournfully ...to snoring. But what does a yodel sound like? LOL Maybe admin could give us an audio link? RECORD YOUR YODEL?
I found out what the yodel sounds like, I'm crate training Bindi and she yodels when I'm not in the room or the light is out and she can't see me
it's really cute, but I still feel bad for doing it :( I'm working on it
(she's a little gas maker too LOL)~Kat

Rocky loves to "umph", "ugh", sigh deeply and dramatically, make noises when he yawns, and yodel like he's from the Alps when we get home. Personally though, I love his "rubble-rubble" the best.
-
Giz will umph and snore and sort of snore snort gruble if we move while he is getting his beauty sleep. He will also "talk" to me now. I have just started to get him to do that, it really sounds like he is trying to say something. :D He also yodels and boofs but he doesn't baroo.

@Vanessa626:
Funny this topic came up again…just yesterday we were talking about how Chance makes sounds like he is an old man when he breathes. Anytime you move him it sounds like effort on his behalf. Does anyone else hear this too?????
Max also makes those sounds when you move him. If you just ask him to move he grunts looks at me and puts his head back down. He's so funny.

If ya don't do what Magnum thinks should be done, you get a loud, quick exhale out through his nose, like he's disgusted with you. When you come home, you might, if you're lucky, get an ears-back roo (everybody who knows him seems to live for that sound). Then ya sometimes get what I call the frustration whine when he wants to get at something and can't (usually followed by the disgust exhale, 'cause you won't let him get at what he wants to get at). Then, of course, there's the "I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT" scream which startles everybody!
Barking aside, Magnum is the noisiest dog I've every had!
-
Whoever decided to call this a "silent" breed obviously never lived with one!
While I love the fact that he doesn't bark (except when in the kennel to remind us that he's there… and then it's one lone "chuff!" every 5 minutes), I think he makes more noise that the cat and the Papillion who barks at everything combined!
-
Yeah we get some noises of our B. The first noise we got from him was that famous umph. He does it when he finally has given up the fight (mostly when he's done being told not to nip). It's funny because he looks at us and then umps..like fine! Then we got his yodel but it's a deep yodul not like the one you see on T.V. The snoring is just too funny because he sleeps beside us in his bed, so I have my husband, who also snores to my right so I turn to my left and I have snoring there too. And sometimes he sleeps with his head in the air (just like a baby fighting to sleep) and then we hear snoring and his head bops (2 cute). Yesturday he let out what seemed a basenji bark cause I took too long to put my jacket on when we were gonna go for a walk. Something funny about our B though. When it's my husbands turn to walk him, you don't hear a peep out of Champ, but when it's me, he goes crazy and starts with the yoduling (Spoiled brat). This morning was a new one though, we got a grunt. See what happened was that he usually gets up at the first sign of life, which is usually at 5:00am and my husband takes him out, but when he comes in I'm still sleeping so since last week we've had Champ come into bed in the am so we can get a few more minutes of sleep and he seems to love laying with us. Well this morning we were so tired, we didn't even want to get up to put him on the bed. Well the boss decided to grunt after attempting to get our attention to be carried onto the bed…well he was too cute so he got his wish..I'm sure we'll be hearing my grunts now that he knows it works. I also thought that comment about the foofing was histerical because when my B gets gasy he does look around like who did that and does seem embarresed..silly boy..but wait I haven't heard this one before and it happens on the regular...how about the burping?My B burps everytime he drinks lots of water.

Our B- burps too. My husband callshim teh gas bomb. Rocky normally waits to burp after devouring a rawhide or licking the empty sour cream container clean. He'll just burp and lick his chops as if to say "man that was fantastic!" and then go take a nap.
What I would give for my dogs life!
-
One of ours, the male will definitely give out an umph when he does not get his way. Usually accompanied by some sort of crazy foot shaking dance. It is so funny to see the similarities with other basenjis. Since we have never been around any others but our own, we just did not know.
-
Yeah we've had CHamp for almost 2 months and we're getting all these new noises from him and more often. The grunt is my favorite cause he does this when he's desperate oh and of course the burp.
