In one of my previous apartments I used to frequent a particular, locally owned, quickie-type market. Occasionally, I would bring my dog. They had no problem with me bringing him into the store while I carried him. In fact, he became a bit of a celebrity because the clerks would point us out when we came in, saying "that's the dog I was telling you about, a basenji" to other customers. I had the experience of a bit of teaching about the breed. many were appreciative, some were just jerks because "they were 'real men' and they had to have a "real" dog" UUGGHH! So what's a "real dog'? Made me angry but it was a 'quickie-mart' - how angry could I get?

Hachiko was a famous Akita immortalized for being supremely loyal to his owner, even after he died. I won't give away too much for fear of spoiling the story (though it's common lore amongst Japanese schoolchildren). There's a statue at the Shibuya station in Tokyo commemorating this faithful dog.

I haven't seen the American version, but I did see the Japanese version a while back. I'm kind of a sucker for animal movies, and the Japanese tend to churn out some rather amusing ones (Milo & Otis, anyone?). Kind of lukewarm about this one, though.

@Maya:

If you're living in Holland, you need a Friesian!!! 😃

I have the most wonderful friesian, her temperment is amazing. She's not even 3 yet but she is just so sweet and gentle!!

But, do keep us updated. I've had horses since i was 3 and they are a huge part of my life. I couldnt be without them even though im not as involved in the horse world as i once was!!

P.S. I have some photos from a show over here in the UK with shires in their traditional plaits and tack if anyone is interested in seeing them. Its just amazing!!

Yes!! I love to see the pictures!!!

I like the Friesian horses but it's not a breed wich can used for lots of things, they are to special i think 😃
I like the Friesian for shows and as a barouche horse (is it a good word?)

I once ride a Friesian and it's different with riding a normal or western horse.
They make larger steps and it's very comfortable riding!
A friend of us breeds the Friesian 😃

@moetmum:

That sounds exciting, hope it all goes to plan.

Our neighbouring farmer used to breed shire horses, they don't breed now but still have loads of horses. They go to loads of shows, they were sponsored by a local brewery.

The horses are fascinated by the basenjis, and always want to come and have a look! the b's aren't keen when they snort at them though.

I have never heard of a horse milking farm before!!

Wow!!! If it was a little bit near Holland, I really would come over to met you and take a look at the shires next door :D:D

We're don't going to live in Holland 😃
In Germany they have also some very nice breeds Hannoveraan, holsteiner (i don't know the english names…0

That's pretty amazing!

My ex-boyfriend's mom had a Malinois. It's a beautiful breed. They are very athletic & obedient. Two things always needed in good police K-9s 🙂

That was such an amazing dog!!! I'm sure some of those tricks can be taught to a Basenji, but it would take many "treat bribes." You know the Basenji attitude… "WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?" Gotta love 'em though!!!
