• A few videos here. First is out trip to, and at the Dog Park. We ended up being there for 2 hours! Gizmo was running around pretty much nonstop! At the end, he was just hanging around my feet, obviously telling me "let's go home!". :rolleyes:

    The second video is when we get home. Gizmo parks himself in front of the heater fan, and does his best not to fall asleep. But failsโ€ฆthe soothing warmth, and the exhaustion takes hold... ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

  • Great vids, Gizmo looks realy grown up now.
    He's one tired doggy, i love the way he turns away from the camera at the end ๐Ÿ˜ƒ


  • Tired basenji = Good basenji = Happy owner

    ๐Ÿ™‚


  • Nice big dog park! The way Gizmo is dozing off it's a good thing he isn't driving. (-:
    At the end he says "I'm not sleeping I'm just resting my eye lids".


  • Yep, that's one happy puppy. There's one thing I can't figure out. Is that a fan or a heater?


  • AWW Thank You for Sharing!! Tooo Cute! I wish there was a Doggie Park close to us :((((

    It's a fan heater, or is it called heater fan? Here in norway they are called "Vifteovn", so directly translated its fan heater. Just a fan with a heated element inside, so it blows out the heat.

    Sounds like a ceramic heater (heating element inside with a fan distributing the heat).

    I need to get one for my B. I think he'd thoroughly enjoy it. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

    I am sure he would. Gizmo lives in front of that thing ever since I bought it. And if it's not on, he will lay there and poke/claw at it. :p
    The humming sound of the fan is almost therapeutic, he seems very relaxed with it on.


  • If you have a hair dryer try that on your Basenjis, keeping it moving of course so as not to burn them. My last Basenji used to love it when i was drying my hair and gave him a turn with it. Wish i'd filmed him

    Mine runs from the hair dryer. I've tried to use it after bathing him a few times (used the lowest setting too) and he went for the nearest corner. I didn't want to traumatize him. I guess some Basenjis are more tolerable of noises than others. :o


  • Great videos! Gizmo is a big boy now! I love the second video with him trying not to fall asleep.. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ


  • Kananga, Benji used to run outside through the cat flap when he heard fireworks to investigate ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

    That is one curious Basenji. ๐Ÿ™‚
