My 2 Basenji's

Show Off Your Dog
  • These are my 2 B's. The tri color is Danik and he is about 2 1/2 now. The red & white is Colton and he is 2. They are both males and that makes them quite a handful. I know I should have never gotten 2 males but I couldn't help myself. We drove to Kentucky after much dog breed research to pick up Danik from a breeder there. A few months later we were looking around at a Petland and spotted Colton. I know pet shops are full of sick, unhealthy dogs from puppy mills and that is exactly what Colton was. He was greatly under weight and sickly looking. Being that Basenjis are rare to come across and that he was so sick I couldn't help but buy him to save him from his fate at the pet shop. Anyway they are both typical Basenjis but I just can't help but love them!

  • They are cute… thanks for the pictures... you should consider getting DNA tests done for Fanconi... especially for the Petland pup.... and if the breeder of your other has not tested the sire and dam, then for him also... you can learn about Fanconi at www.basenjihealth.org and the DNA test available for Fanconi

    Yep, I spent about 3 days trying to come up with names, searching online and asking my parents and brother for names all we came up with was Olivia, so her final name will be either "One in a million" Olivia Palito or Olivia Palito "One in a million" (Olivia Palito is the portuguese name for Olive in Popeye[Palito means toothpick]) I have a few more photos of her but won't be uploading them today so maybe tomorrow I'll upload some !

    Yes, Bungwa will toss any of his toys into the air and catch them but definitely will not catch anything I throw. He has no competition because the others just look and say 'Boooring'!!! Interesting about your best hunters being fetchers, Quercus. I wonder if there's a reason in it or whether it's a coincidence!?
  • Basenji's love mint!

    Last year we bought a catnip mouse for our cat, but Samantha likes to play with them more than the cat does!
