    Hello Everyone, I just want to start off by saying, "I sure Love my Basenji", she is so sweet and affectionate. Her name is Sahara, from the Sahara Desert in Africa. I have had her for 4 months, she is red and white. She will be 6 months on the 31st. We live on the East Coast, where it is pretty warm right now, she loves the sun, and going out in our boat. We are trying to get her to love the water, although we have been told Basenjis do not care to be wet. We have alot of fun with Sahara and my husband loves her also.:) Does anyone have tips on keeping her off our tables and counters, and housebreaking, she is almost there but not quite, some accidents now and then. Thanks

    Hi! Welcome to Basenji Forums!

    Do you have any photos of Sahara? It would be great if you can post them in the Show Off Your Dog thread.

    @abonnard Pee pads got me through in the end, she would pee every 20 mins for the first months, then 40 mins, then she suddenly went to being able to hold it for many hours. One of the best purchases I got before she arrived was a small carpet washer, saved my sanity. The cleanup is so key otherwise they go back to the same spot.

    Ok now comes the story about Missy. Missy would destroy things around the house, get into the garbage, chew on socks and underwear. Mom would punish her , tell her she was bad, and Missy would go pout. Mom would have to leave her bedroom door shut for a week or Missy would go in and pee on Mom's side of the bed, but never Dad's side. who was punishing who?:p

    Thanks to all for your hartwarming welcome…. Barklessdog, I get you on the corny feet hahahah I smelled it...hihii still it's hardly an odor... Yes we are happy to bring our dog with us. We are not heading for the south but rather to the northeast to a place called Bibione... We might consider going more south another year...and meet up with Edward.... We do have a yearly beachwalk with only basenji's this year we cannot do it because walking on the sand would yet not be wise due to his bonegrowth... Kind regards to all of you!
