Amazing animals!!!!

Basenji Talk
  • Have I said lately that I love, love this breed of dogs, Basenjis:D :D are the smartest dogs I have ever seen. Tonight my hubby and I were playing with Sahara on our bed, and she started to chew on my hand alittle for me to give her attention and my hubby said, "Sahara don't bite Mommie, give her love, and she looked at me with her head cocked and pawed at my arm and started licking me, it was just amazing. She was listening to my hubby so intently and just got real close to me and started giving me love. We could not believe it, I have always noticed how Sahara listens to me so intent, like she knows exactly what I am saying. Of course she has times she doesn't listen, like when I want her to do something she doesn't want to do, haha!!!! The majority of the times she does listen and does what I want. I LOVE this furbaby, hubby and I are Basenji hooked.

    @Candy: eeeefarm, Enjoyed your story, sounds like it worked. Are you still clicking? I get out the clicker when I want to teach a new behaviour…...the latest one was "waving" at me. I don't train on any schedule, as he knows everything I require of him on a daily basis, but once in awhile it is fun to grab the clicker and some treats and see what we can learn today. He starts offering behaviours as soon as he sees the clicker come out. "What do you want me to do, Mom?" :)

    It's a coincidence that you should mention this Crystal. Yesterday i was writing to a young child who lives in Northern Malawi and was unsure whether to mention our Basenji. When corresponding you are asked to be careful about mentioning certain subjects in case you cause offence. However when i emailed for advice i have been told it will be ok to mention Malaika.
  • I think our Basenji is addicted to watching Animal Planet!

    Our dobes ignore the television, and so does Tilly mainly - unless she hears childrens voices - then she is over at it straight away. There was a popular yoghurt advert a few months ago featuring a young child talking - Tilly would wake up from a deep sleep and rush over to stand with her nose pressed against the screen! I dont tend to watch much TV, but Tilly likes to read books with me - well she sits beside me and pushes her head infront of whatever im reading to get attention. it usually works.
