Hey, thanks everyone! I think it might have been an "angry" pee now that I think about it… My husband was out of town so I was only able to take him on one walk rather than two ( I have a toddler and it's freezing outside! ) So he might have been upset. To answer one of your questions he gets a 10 to 15 minute walk in the morning and a 20 -25 minute walk at night. He pulls the ENTIRE time but then lies on the floor exausted when it's all over.. ha! :)

Hey, I'm new to this forum.. How neat is this? Anyway just saying hello. I have a 4 year old Basenji named Juma Charles (we call him Charlie) My husband, myself and my two year old son adore him. I'm attaching of pic. But I have a quick question.. should we get a female Basenji to provide companionship to Charlie? He is home alone for 4-6 hours a day. He has lots of windows to scout and a cozy bed. He also gets 2 walks a day. The second being a veeeeery long walk. I just sometimes think he gets lonely though. Also he is not allowed on the furniture except for one small couch in the sun room and a big chair. Recently, he jumped on a couch that he KNOWS he is not allowed on and peed on it! What the heck? He wasn't mad at us that I know of and nothing new is happening in the house and we were home when he did it. Also, he has peed on the rug a few times in the last two weeks. What could this indicate? Thanks!
