I have had Basenjis since 1981. This film of Cooper is so beautifully made. It made me cry with happiness. There is no other breed that can match a Basenji. The perfect dog.
I live in an apartment and I have 3 boys ranging in age from 14, 10 and a half, and 4 and a half... Been thinking about getting a dog, but in cannot exceed 25 pounds, and I'm not generally used to small*medium breed dogs... I grew up with a Great Dane, and a Doberman at the same time, and then after we had a Bull Mastiff , and a St. Bernard... So This transition is hard to go smaller... But I am in between the Shiba Inu and The Basenji,,, leaning more towards Basenji... I'm IN LOVE with the facial expressions and. the love one gives... sooooo please help me get one soon... I reside in Maryland I live in a townhome. I work during the week 3:30am to 11:30am and 4:30am to 11:30am on Sat and sun so plenty enough time to give a basenji I think...also I have to pay a $500 pet deposit and have valid shot records to have the dogum wogum so please direct us in the right direction... We would like to start off puppy 8wks or older weined from mother, all papers to show my landlord with shots etc.. please contact ASAP
I have had one of these for about four years now, he was two when he came to me and totally by accident. He is only one of a long string of dogs that I have cherished, (seven of which are still with me.) His name is Cephas which is Aramaic for Peter. He also answers to Mouse, His ears stand up like a mouse. Not a day goes by where I don’t think of each and every one of them. You are not alone with your feelings…… All for the love of a dog Blessings to you and yours
This is lovely. Cooper is a beautiful dog and clearly has a wonderful life with you. This also made me cry because growing up as a child I had a dog that I'd found on the street as a stray. We had never heard of Basenji's before that, but a neighbor who went to a lot of dog shows came by one day when she heard that we had an odd looking dog that made some weird noises and no one could figure out what she was. We knew she had some German Shepherd in her, but we couldn't figure out what on Earth the other half was. The dog expert neighbor took one look at her and said, "Oh, that dog is half Basenji!" And sure enough when we researched the breed she was indeed mostly Basenji in every way. She was the best dog a kid could have wanted to grow up with, I had to put her down when I was 24 and she was 14 and 25 years later it still breaks my heart and reduces me to tears to think about it. Many of the pics here of Cooper remind me so much of her, she had a full on Basenji face and ears, with the eyes and wrinkles on forehead (and she had the yodel too!). The pics of Cooper sleeping with his ears relaxed especially reminded me of her. I miss seeing that so much. Thanks for sharing. Loved it.
I just love your video of Cooper. I have three and have had them 1981. You both such a wonderful couple with hearts of gold. cooper LOVES you both so much and it shows his warmth of Love and Happy character of him reflects your treatment of him. I wish him a LONG LIFE with his wonderful little play buddy. I cried with love and happiness. Would love to become your friends on Facebook. My name is Kerry Pearson from Camden New south Wales in Australia.
I have always since a young girl wanted a Basenji 40 years on I now am going to get two male and female. I have owned Australian dingoes who are just as loyal and unique
I'm sitting here bawling my eyes out, while my 7 week old Basenji puppy Shango is asleep in my lap. He looks so much like Cooper! Beautiful dog, beautiful video, great music. Thanks for uploading
I love this video. My boy's name is Trooper. He is approaching the end days of his life.. I am so sad but extremely blessed to have had him since he was 4 weeks old.
I had two B's that looked just like your adorable Cooper. Colt was wonderful but didn't understand how dangerous cars are. Tippy lives to a ripe old age of 18 1/2. Thanks for the memories. Enjoy your sweet Cooper!
Wow, basenjis live a long time! I have a basenji/Siberian husky mix and she will be 11 this year. That has not slowed her down a bit! I bet she too will have a long life! Dogs, if they are happy and well loved, will stick around as long as they can because they don't want to leave their humans.
What a lovely film...Thank you for sharing. i lost my dog, Copper Baron, 35 years ago. I was so much reminded of him in your images. Baron was only 8, I loved him with all my heart.
Great video. Cooper seems like a wonderful companion. Thank you for the many hours of work that went into making the documentary. David- Knoxville, TN, USA
This video reminds me of my Basenji Charlie when he was a puppy; they are so smart! My Charlie will be 8 years old January 13th 2017. Picture to the left is him when maybe 5 months old. I love him so much. It is very apparent that you love your baby too. Have fun for many years.
Your video is life transforming. I enjoyed it, even though it made me cry. Remembering my child hood dog of 15 yrs, bunnkie. Hope that copper and his brother lives a very long life beyond 50 years, happy and healthy. It surely did touched my heart. I am a cat lady of 4 cats and I'm interested in getting a quiet dog. This impressed me and might be just the breed for me. Thanks for sharing. And please stay close to the Lord Jesus, as only he can bring such happiness in our lives!😇🙏
Thank you so much for sharing Cooper with us, we are thinking of possibly bringing a basenji into our lives soon, and we really enjoyed spending time with cooper. Your post has definitely increased our interest in the breed!!!
What a beautiful love story. Thank you for sharing this. These dogs are so special and you have provided such a loving home for them. And YES, this video made me cry! I have had two Basenjis and the bond we have/had is represented here in your lovely film. God bless you.
From a cute puppy to a very handsome guy! Thank you for sharing and creating this exceptionally lovely video. I am looking to rescue and older Basenji. Wish me luck, very rare.
A magnificent film with a perfect sound track about my most favorite breed. We have two Basenjis, Trooper and Gwyn. They are very loyal, intelligent and beautiful. Watching your film was like observing my Basenjis growing up a second time. Thank you for making it! Captain Frank
I was watching my Dad's Basenji one time and a neighbor up the road was walking a 10 month old female he just got. So I stopped him and brought ours out which was a male 7 yrs old ,she got so excited by running around ours playing and cordialing him. He was pretty mellow with her and played a little with her, So I asked him if she does that with other dog breeds he said no and was surprised on how she acted I told him They seem to recognize their own breed instinctively.
Купер красавец!Моя басенджи Урсула тоже любительница полежать на хозяйской кровати,а её лучший друг кот Кузя любить повилять хвостом перед Урсулой.Сняла много забавных видео и фото с котом и собакой.
I also own a basenji, awesome dogs BUT WILD AS HELL. They will destroy anything, definitely have to keep them crated when you are not around, at least I've always had to and this is the third basenji I have owned. I love how they have no dog odor (clean themselves) and they don't bark.
This video is beautiful. I have been thinking for a while of getting a Basenji in the future and your video has convinced me even more. Cooper is stunning. :)
I have had three over the years.... The only way you train them is if a spirit of a distant relative possesses their soul... according to African villagers
sposino za krasivii video!!!! esci nonno pojaluista delaiete esce..... Ia italianka, hotel a usanti kak pojivaet Cooper!!! Hotela esce usanti gode vi vivete, v Rossi? Jelaiu vam vaizdorovie!!!! Jdu vashevo otveta!! Spasibo bolishoe!!!!! Maria
5:31 is probably my favorite photo. I hope he's still happy and healthy. I can tell he's spoiled 😹. Edit: 6:51 my basenji was a show dog when she was younger too and she does that same thing when she lies down with us. PS: her name is Ginger and she's got two red/orange spots on the white band that goes from her neck to her snout.
Such a good and good and precious boy! How anyone could possibly resist his charm is impossible to imagine.
Beautiful creature ❤️
Such a wonderful film it made me cry thinking of all the beautiful Basenjis I have had. I hope Cooper is alive today and happy!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful Cooper hope he well and healthy a DARLING!!!!
I owned a Basenji and he was the best baby I ever owned I miss him so much thank you for sharing this video
I have had Basenjis since 1981. This film of Cooper is so beautifully made. It made me cry with happiness. There is no other breed that can match a Basenji. The perfect dog.
My friends in Finland have basenjis and this video makes me realise how much I miss seeing them. Great people, and brilliant dogs. So much personality
Wonderful ❤! Cooper is just like my Basenji, Cookie. Love the video
I have a basenji. They are the most beautiful dogs in the world. I can't walk down a single road in London without being stopped. X
How does your basenji around strangers?
@@ncjetsflyhigh they are an aloof breed with strangers
Hey Michael. Where did you buy the puppy from? It's so hard to find them. I would appreciate any info if you have. Thank you.
@@patr_oana Hiya, I got mine in Kent, England. It was so long ago - I think i put Basenji breader in Kent and found this breader. she has loads...
Thanks for all your comments. This is a very important and valued for us.We did not expect that this video will cause so much emotion. Thank you!

A Basenji puppy's face has so much expression with all those wrinkles and eyes . I have had 3 of them
Cooper, is such a beautiful basenji...I'll be moving on December 1st and hopefully I can find a beautiful basenji like Cooper...
Они прекрасны 🤗

Beautiful!!
Made me cry...Beautiful... I miss my two dogs terribly.There is nothing like the love to and from a dog.Thank you x
This presentation made my heart melt. I recall the 16 years that we were basenji owners.
I love this video. My boy's name is Trooper. He is approaching the end days of his life.. I am so sad but extremely blessed to have had him since he was 4 weeks old.
Sweet Dog❤
I had two B's that looked just like your adorable Cooper. Colt was wonderful but didn't understand how dangerous cars are. Tippy lives to a ripe old age of 18 1/2.
Thanks for the memories. Enjoy your sweet Cooper!
Cooper looks just like my Benji the Basenji (12/29/2000 - 2/22/2016) looked. I miss him so much. He was the love of my life!😁

What makes "Cooper the Basenji" so fantastic is that you are an excellent photographer with a beautiful dog. Please keep it going........
Thank you!)
What a lovely film...Thank you for sharing. i lost my dog, Copper Baron, 35 years ago. I was so much reminded of him in your images. Baron was only 8, I loved him with all my heart.

Какое чудесное видео! Прослезилась немного, не могу с равнодушием смотреть на эту породу, думаем о приобретении замечательного друга.
Супер видео, очень глубоко и по настоящему показана собака. Получила массу удовольствия при просмотре.
Красавчик!
Ой какое же хорошее видео, спасибо вам)

Спасибо вам за хорошие и добрые слова :)
Amazing dog and video :)
Your video is so inspiring. I've been watching several times. I'm waiting for my new friend. In about 30 days he will be with me.
Cooper is adorable. My dog is a dog of Africa mutt and has some of coolers features. Love your video

Weird question... Do they snuggle much or no?
@@tannerannichiarico7255 it changes according to dogs personality.But generally they love playing and cuddling
And no shedding too 😎
Они такие милашки:)
🥰😍
I love my basenji,Autumn.Your baby and mine could be siblings,they look very similar.🐅😁
I have a Basenji and I love him. Thinking of getting another or maybe a Minpin.
This video is beautiful. I have been thinking for a while of getting a Basenji in the future and your video has convinced me even more. Cooper is stunning. :)

It sounds like some esoteric process, hah))
I love that
I want a basenji so bad! They look so beautiful, but I hear they're stubborn to hell lol.
