I hope so too! Ive also started some training sessions together. Like having them both Sit (they will sit next to each other with no issues). I use a Clicker. Ill have them SIT and they both sit…ill click and they both get treats (a SMALL piece of hot dog). Kind of to teach them that being near each other can be rewarding. So far its worked. They can be inside the house toether with no conflict either. One will be on the couch near me the other in the recliner. The only tension is if one comes over to sniff the other. But neither snap anymore cuz when one growls the other heeds the warning and backs away. I love having another B around...they are like Potato chips...you cant have just one lol

bboy, i think he had previously been sleeping on his face!
when people talk about basenjis not being good with kids i just can never agree. some arent
but this is how i grew up and no matter where my kiddo crashes for the night he and fender insist on laying all over eachother -

That pic of the three of them…....so cute.
If kids are taught how to live with and respect any dog, there shouldn't be a problem.
I know I can't sit or lay down anywhere without having them all wanting to be on me, or at least touching me.:)
It's one of the most appealing aspects of the Basenji for me.....that they love to be with you.

I agree Bboy, our Sahara is the same way, she has to touch you in some way. We love this about her, sometimes she will just reach out and touch your hand with her paw, just to make contact. I love this breed, I have never seen any other dogs do the same.

That 1st pic, with Fenders leg pushing himself into childs back? That is how Duke does it. If he's in between me & hubby, one of us gets the pokey paw in our back. Feels good if he pokes the right spot, like a mini-massage. These are real cute pics.

That is PLS ….or Pokey Leg Syndrome....it appears to be stronger in puppies, and the symptoms ease with age
