Rutting season has started quite early for our 5 year old male this year! He is more unsettled, marks way more than usual and is ready to pick up a fight… Lets see how long it lasts!
Any other basenjis rutting at the moment?
In case anyone wanted to get this very simple and easy title! Here’s Percy’s video that just got accepted
Six basenjis and their good-looking humans gathered on a nicer summer morning in Washington Square Park, New York City. Two youngsters made their first visits: Pierre (male, 7-months-old,) and Cosmo (male, yearling.) Though they had not met before, both came from the same breeder in Ocala, Florida. They were joined by four veterans, Bella Luna (female, 3-years-old,) Roxy (female, 4-years-old,) Rocket (male, 8-years-old,) and Scout (female, 9-years-old.) Regular Kepler will return next time after dental cleaning (and some extractions) this past week. Starting temperature: 78°F|26°C
Strike a pose!!

New Basenji owner here. I recently adopted a 2 year old boy who’s the sweetest thing ever at home. But a lot of times our walks come to a screeching halt at inconvenient times, such as in the middle of the road, awkwardly on a trail when another dog is 100 yards ahead, or just far from the house. Luckily we live in a quiet neighborhood with cars rolling through infrequently, but it’s been quite frustrating to try to get him moving again. Sometimes taking up to 5 mins to budge in any direction. When he’s moving it’s lovely as he walks by my side and hardly pulls me. I currently have him on a harness. I’ve tried coaxing him with treats, but he hits the brakes again as soon as he gets the treat and seems to have become counterproductive. Any tips to help me train him to get moving again?
Trinity has a new toy! She’s driving her sister Venus, crazy!
So we had a near total eclipse in our bit of the UK today.
Roo was ready....
I’ve been sitting here chilling with my husband, the baby, and our 3yo (red + white) and almost 1yo (brindle)— 3yo (Finn) growls at 1yo (Toast) to get off the couch. Toast doesn’t move off the couch and has fallen asleep to being groomed for the last 15+ minutes 😂 ATP, Finn is almost laying on top of Toast to get better angles haha
Anyone else have experience with their dog getting hives or bumps like this? She doesn't seem bothered by it at all, but it is something that's developed in the last day and is only on one side.
Any help would be much appreciated! We're mostly worried if we should be going to the vet to get any medication or if it'll disappear on its own.
