A walk in Nature


  • Last tuesday, before we had to leave with our ship, we went to a nature park in Germany (read, a big forest with lots of wildlife)

    Wo didn't saw a human being but! two deers!!!! :D

    And the dogs we're very crazy about the smell of the wild animals.
    I think the smelled fox and deer, but also wild boars and maybe even a wolve (tere are some wolves living there)


    :eek:


    Some deer tracks


    :)


    :D


    He's gonna get Chafuko!!


    And take a big sleep after….


  • O no!

    I see I posted this tread in Member Introductions!!!

    HELP!


  • Love the photos! What lovely dogs you have.
    We are headed down to the Oregon Coast next week.
    Lots of long empty beaches for the 2 b's to run on.
    We all end up tired after all that exercise.

    I don't think its a big deal, the wrong thread…


  • What kind of a bed is that in the bottom picture? Is it suspended from something? it looks really great.


  • Very nice photos :). What a good idea-bench on the heating :cool: :D.
    We go for a walk to the forests which we have round about our home. there are beautiful nature, but there are roe-does and wild-boars so dogs must to have a leads.


  • @Quercus:

    hihihi

    Just like the way you see it, it's in the petstores in Holland!
    It's a hammock for cats!

    They really love it and we have one at the moment, but want another one so both B's can lie in it…. :D
    At night, our cat lies in the hammock!


  • Nice pics! Love to see happy babies :D :D


  • Great photos. love to see such a beautiful pack of happy dogs ( and I hope their people, too)!!!


  • Great shots… and your IB is lovely.... (as are you Basenjis).....


  • Wonderful to see them having such a great time!

    We took our Tex to Florida for the first Eukanuba/AKC Invitational. We went down to the manatee viewing park, thinking he would love it. Alas, poor city dog, he was completely unnerved by all that raw nature. He kept jumping behind us at every rustle in the bushes alongside the path. The next day we went to NASA. When we parked in the lot and got him out so he could pee before we put him back in the crate while we went on the tour, he was ecstatic! "Look, Mom and Dad, asphalt!! And orange cones! Now this is more like it!"

  • Great series Kim. Beautiful babies. Only one more week to go !!!:D

    @julia87 How much do you know about Basenjis? Have you met any? It's highly recommended to learn as much as possible about them before making a decision to acquire one. This would be a good place to start.

    @Motala - That is good that you talked to Jan and glad to hear that she had not been spayed. I still think that your Vet and you should connect with Dr. Gonto about your girl's blood work and blood gas results and if he has any thoughts about it.

    Welcome aboard, but do share his registered name ? Who are Dad and Mom and what was his date of birth so we can be sure to add him to the Basenji pedigree on-line database (with a photo ???) for the world to share him. http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/

    @msjames, @tanza did you a solid favor outlining expectations. Networking really is key to finding a "reputable" breeder. Most show their dogs and are connected to other breeders through showing. They all seem to know who is planning a litter and who isn't. I completely agree with Pat that you should meet your breeder in person prior to the puppies even being born. You can learn a lot. Is a Basenji right for you? If you want a dog to hang with you in the driveway with the garage door open as you chat with neighbors, or stand calmly with the front door open as you receive a UPS package... ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Basenjis will bolt. they'll be gone in a second. They see it. They chase it. And if you think you have them trained... no. They've trained you. When they see it they will chase it. Basenjis, in my experience, need exercise. Mine get two walks a day. When they don't, they can be destructive. They're not shy about expressing frustration or displeasure through chewing up your best stuff. A big secure yard can mitigate this, but that's not a guarantee. They love seeing outside, so keep your blinds and drapes open otherwise they may open them themselves even if that requires chewing through them. They will climb onto windowsills, tables and low counter tops. They are capable of scaling a six-foot fence. They are known to climb trees. These are extreme examples, but better to know now. They are super affectionate. They can be trained... to a point. They are clowns and provide endless entertainment. A Basenji baroo is the best sound ever! They love to snuggle and will sleep on your bed and under the spreads and sheets if you let them. They love to share body heat. Tail twitches when I return home are the best!

    Since this is a bit old and there hasn't been a reply I wanted to touch base with you. How about some pictures of Kona's hocks.. that would be helpful to see. Hope she is doing better and her weight loss is gradually coming down. Kathy
