Basenji Talking During Car Ride - Part 1

Two part video of "Simon," a Basenji who speaks through various noises to let me know he wants a potty break.
This video shows how Simon alerts me of his need for a bathroom break.
This video was uploaded from an Android phone.

[@johnadams9044]

This Basenji is eager to get out of the car and explore!

[@loziandjess]

ohh you should really have him restrained! it's dangerous to have him jumping all over the car like that. such a cutie though! i really want a basenji, they have such personality!

[@Zephyrpalms]

What an adorable baby!!!

[@netherfield2000]

I like how he keeps on saying "No!"

[@dnluncola]

I agree. My guy doesn't hold still in the car for the life of it. Cutie!

[@tollycat]

The correct answer is...he needed to go to the bathroom. He isn't that obnoxious all the time.

[@MoonlightNothing]

So sweet

[@Laurenluffsdogs]

I have a mixed breed and he does that too!!! I love his vocalness. It's nice having a dog who will "talk" to me lol.

[@leonmatthewsiv1699]

better buckle him in or you'll have a puppy missile.

[@tollycat]

The jacket is a Woolrich pet. We bought it from Target.

[@hebneh]

My dog is a bahuahua (basenji / chihuahua) and while she can (and does) bark, she also vocalizes like this when I’m scratching her.

[@megamonkeypickle]

Mine do the same thing... I have a big truck and they sit on the center arm rest and act as Navigators.

[@408clevo]

Veri beautiful puppys

[@amirthaa8592]

I wonder how is that doggo right now.. Because it's already 11 years

[@tollycat]

Sadly Simon passed away on 1/8/2016 of natural causes. He lived to be 10 years old.

[@chrisaspradling5692]

My Basenji lived fifteen years.

[@Stoniewitch420]

My B Anubis runs back and forth and jumps up in all the windows to look out lol.

[@suzannecocks]

@Illreptilekeeper57 Cont... So, it's good for them to have a companion. When they 'howl' it's incredibly loud, as is their 'yodel'. I find my Basenji very easy to train, as he loves to please. I use treats when I start teaching a new 'trick', but subsequently he's motivated and satisfied with just pleasing me. So, good luck with your own, you'll be delighted

[@akashicvideos6055]

Our Basenji acts the same way in the car!

[@citrumpet1]

My Basenji Knocks the gearshift when I let her run like that. She has also yanked my arm when it was on the steering wheel and yanked the steering wheel with her leg. Now I tie her leash to the passenger side headrest so she can't run all over and cause an accident.

[@elzainfante5568]

Ele não sabe onde fica no carro, o meu Basengi faz o mesmo kkkkkkk! São muito fofossss ❤️

[@Bab3tina]

So cute! What an adorable Doggy!! My Babette used to tap me on my shoulder when I was driving to say she wanted to go Poopiis!! Lol!! ((*_*)

[@tarantarans]

Ah, cute! aww. Thanks for uploading. I did a lot of research on this breed. Am seriously considering getting one, hopefully I can find one at a shelter. I'd rather get a rescue. I have a pug/beagle mix atm and we love to go hiking. I think a basenji will be a perfect match for us. ^.^

[@timslater566]

You won’t find a Basenji at a shelter, I can assure you.

[@lpscottoncandytv9739]

I have a strange breed of basenji

[@apriltorres3684]

So did Simon get a chance to get outside to pee ? Lovely dog and a great talker.

[@nigella4me]

Awwwwwww! This sweetie is just sooooo cute!

[@melissasind]

Wow, my basenjis act the same exact way in the car all the time. I think its a nervous/excitement for mine.

[@Xemo37210]

My B'dogs will always have to go within 5 minutes of getting in the car, regardless of whether they went only an hour before.

[@manegedentoom]

a Basenji

[@poundpoochie90]

I have made the mistake of letting my basenji sit on my lap in many occasions and he is very loyal and devoted to me as well. I have had a problem with him barking constantly at other people. I think this might be part of the problem with letting him sit on my lap. Now I know to correct this maybe his behavior will get better.

[@gabrielletanner5339]

Dangerous not having him restrained. Dogs thrown over a car seat can rupture their spleen 😮

[@mikemascow]

My Basenji Mix is the same way in the car. Wants to go with...can't sit still. He is bigger, mixed with Lab, so, he stays in the back. But, no matter how cold out, when you slow down or come to a stop, he his not happy until you open the window so he can put his head out the window.

[@jimmyzbike]

what is big little jacket? I like: The handle and the coverage.

[@KU-yz1xu]

OHOO NOOO! LOL!

[@spacepathfinder1]

[@suzannecocks]

j@Illreptilefreak57 I have a Basenji Rhodesian Ridgeback cross. (In other words, the ultimate lion hunting hound! Lol)). He is Very smart, and obedient.

[@christinalovesjohn36]

One sorry typo

[@kimarnina]

sounds like scooby-doo

[@catsarefunny5696]

I think it had to go potty.

[@nightspot8689]

+Angie M He did. They know that.

[@alinalebedeva2569]

ого басенджи у меня тигрового окраса

[@victorp.m.8202]

no se graba mientras se conduce, joder

[@davidriley1847]

Crack the window he's upset . Mine did the same

[@lilmissbrowneyez14]

"Can't you stay in one place?" "NOO!!"

[@sparkle11971]

i wonder if he had to go to the bathroom ....i thing so.

[@LouiseHultcrantz]

I always seem to end up on this part of youtube, one way or anther ;) With cute animals haha ;) Basenjis seem to be wonderful dogs :)

[@LightningHunterWolf]

my basenji max screams the whole way in a car lol

[@RepairmanJackTripper]

The doggy knows dads can't drive and film at the same time!

[@zubagvatic]

How did you film that while driving? :D

[@jbrianm4]

That is too much moving around the car for me. Sit down buddy buddy

[@LilacDownDeep]

@loziandjess Restrain a Basenji? It's pretty tough.

[@ILITH10S]

@Chiselnyc dogs have personalities too

[@maksojakasvaapuissa]

oh god so my dog is not the onlyone

[@bethgrassensg1rassens824]

Should be buckled up.

[@christinalovesjohn36]

I love these dogs my husband had when we got married last year his name was pooch he was such a special dog we found out he had a brain tumor and we had to put him to sleep he is missed somuch but when we ever get enough money we are going to get another on

[@ArmathuX]

Nicee video.. :)

[@suzannecocks]

@Illreptilefreak57 Cont... My basenji is utterly devoted to me, and fiercely loyal. They don't have any 'personal space' issues, so they will always attempt to sit on you!... When they sleep, they pile on top of each other, which is a common trait, as they do that for warmth in the wild. So, if you have another dog, he will be sat on, quite literally lol. As Basenjis are so devoted and loyal, they do suffer often from 'separation anxiety'. So, it's good for them to have a companion. When they

[@lllreptilefreak57]

is it even possible to train a basenji like will they gain a bond with me? i want to get one but i want to train him!

[@Chiselnyc]

Our Besenji loved car trips. He either slept or more likely had his noise popped out of an open window. He was fairly stationary the whole ride. Wonder why yours is so anxious, since he is the same breed. Is he calm at other times in the car?
