    Yes we have an akita whos is 6 years old and our B (Jaycee) whos is almost 9 months old. How big is your akita ours is 135 to 140 lbs. This is our 3rd one over the years and Sterling is a long hair,

    Your two look very nice together. Sterling and Jaycee play together but Sterling has the basement while Jaycee has main floor he has to much hair. Sterling come upstairs just does not get to stay. He's happy whole basement with our daughter and her cat DB.

    My akita (Mishka) is about 95 pounds, although her dad is about 130lbs. All of our dogs are primarily outside dogs, although basenji spends much more time inside than the other two. And when it's windy/rainy/cold in the winter, all of them sleep inside, although the akita does not like it inside much.

    I still over see and watch when Jaycee and Sterling are together but I will say may god help the one that would touch Jaycee. Akita's are very much family dogs and love there family all two and four legged ones.

    As you can tell, Lana (the B) is the alpha dog!

    Thanks! You should see Lana walking all over Mishka (the Akita) when she got her pinned down!

    @melduff I for one think this is FANTASTIC news! You guys are so lucky! You have a one of kind super dog with the papers to prove it. Walks around the neighborhood and trips to the dog park are going to be very much fun... Friendly neighbor: Oh, she's so cute! What kind of dog is she? You: Thanks you so much. Why, she's a Staffy Chow Lab Rott Russell Husky. (Ya haff ta memorize that) :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :thumbs_up: Thanks a bunch for letting us know. Very much enjoyed your thread.

    I have been bike riding 10 times with Siren. 8 of those times I have returned home limping or bleeding. Each time I go out I think I have the issue of cutting in front of the bike solved. Each time Siren finds a way to cut in front of the bike or try to go between the wheels. Siren understands the basic commands: come, sit, stay, and no. Unfortunely, she only understands when you have her undivided attention (meaning nothing else is around or moving).

    Basenji Traits Your Basenji Doesn't Have…

    My Rue is pretty perfect. She is mixed with something (I don't know what) so she doesn't look like a real B… and she isn't interested in anything in our house (chewing wise), doesn't bolt out the door, and licks like CRAZY! She also doesn't really like to play with other dogs at the dog park, she just smells them, occasionally chases them, then comes back and lays down by me (EXERCISE DANG IT!). The only normal B behaviors that I see in her are the little noises that she makes (she makes a lot of them for different reasons) and her BAROOOOOOO (which is fitting because we named her Rue before we even knew she was a Basenji) and it seems like she is stubborn about sitting. It's like she is saying, "yeah I know you want me to sit, but first I'm gonna spin around in a circle. Then maybe I'll sit if I feel like it." Haha! She is a character!

    OMG, TRUST me…its not only ur baby, Jack has some seporation anxiety, i mean, we rescued him so that may be why, but i Always feel so sad when we leave him, he runs to the window and crys when we leave, but i KNOW it wonly lasts until he cant see us anymore (driving away) my neighbor watched for me. but SOMETIMES he does get into things when we leave for too long. like the other day, when he ate my betta fish food...grr...
