Most area dog parks have rules posted, but not all. The following list is a general guide only, comprised of regulations that seem to be consistent at most dog parks in the DFW area and across the country. Please check for local rules posted at each dog park when you visit. |

An
introduction to the sport of lure coursing for members and their
Basenjis. Usually
held at the Haggard Ranch, this event includes structured running
of dogs, a cookout and a private dog park play area where the dogs
unwind
after chasing the “bunny”.
Photos from 2008 will be posted soon! |
AKC conformation event held in conjunction with the Fort Worth Kennel Club's weekend of All Breed shows held at the Amon Carter Exhibit Center in Fort Worth on a Friday evening. Photos from 2008 will be posted soon! Photos from 2007 are available here. |
A
fun event where Basenjis compete for the distinction of having
the blackest nose, tightest tail curl, best yodel, best trick and
a variety
of other fun categories.
This is where the non-showing Basenjis get to strut the stuff that makes
each one unique. Usually held at the White Rock Lake Park’s
Bath Pavillion before the temperatures get too hot. |
Basenjis may hate the water, but everyone has fun at this
event. People and their dogs lounge around the pool or float on foam
rafts waiting for the BBQ to be
ready. Of course there is a swimsuit competition: best male and female beach
outfit on a Basenji. Usually held in Dallas. |
A pot luck luncheon for people only. Food and fun as we
eat, drink and trade gifts with a Basenji theme: either for a Basenji
or with a Basenji on the item.
Start scouting gift items online early for this one. |
