This is a very charming book about Doris Rybot's time with her donkey Dorkis, how they acquired their donkey and adventures in the Holly Forest by their home in company with their dogs.

PYGMIES & BUSHMEN OF THE KALAHARI The chapter on hunting tells us :"To assist the Bushmen in the capture of wild animals dogs are employed, and these are the only animals they possess. These are lean, hungry-looking mongrels, half starved and savage tempered. They accompany their masters when hunting, and it is astonishing with what courage they will tackle a leopard or a hyena, the courage no doubt born of hunger. At the same time they know their masters will back them up. They are quite silent on the soper, and never betray the presence of the hunters by barking, though they will snarl and sometimes bark if one approaches a Bushman encampment. It has been asserted that they cannot bark, but I think this is a mistaken opinion, as those that I have met could bark, though they were not so noisy as European dogs."

REIGNING CATS AND DOGS History Redrawn. Written and Illustrated by Michael Hingley, published by Howell Book House, NY 1997 ISBN 0-87605-697-4. A basenji appears as Kim Basenji, dressed in a low-cut spaghetti-strapped pink gown and fishnet stockings. A Georgia-whelped dog, Basenji studied dancing and singing though she somewhat surprisingly intended to make her professional bowwow as a comedy act. She found work with the risqué magazine Playdog. No matter how many roles she plays, she will probably best be remembered, mainly by male dogs, for her seductive role in 9 1/2 Walks." Kim is among a cast of characters that include Joe Cocker Spaniel, Mohammed Alley Cat, The Beagles, Napoleon Bone-Aparte, Spaniel Boone....

In the background are three cars with registration letters F and G which means that the picture was taken sometime after 1988.

BASENJIS IN MOVIES/VIDEOS:

"ACE VENTURA: PET DETECTIVE" (1994). (Jim Carrey. New release of this film on video includes footage of a black and white Basenji, which was cut from the original release. This Basenji was featured on the cover of the video in Australia.)

"AFRICAN QUEEN"--(Humphrey Bogard/Catherine Hepburn. Basenji sitting on lap of native in church scene at the beginning of the movie.)

"Air Bud - World Pup" Movie, possibly the 3rd instalment of the series. Towards the end, two crooks are being chased by a pack of dogs. At least 2 Basenjis are seen running with the pack and they can clearly be identified when the pack stops. The same camera shot is shown several times with red and white Basenjis right up front and possibly a black and white Basenji in the back right corner of the screen.

"ALL'S QUIET ON THE CANINE FRONT" (1930), and "TRADER HORN" (ca 1930-35), movie shorts of about 5 minutes each of the "Dogville" comedy series, made by Metro Goldwyn Meyer studios in the U.S. during the early 1930's. Contains trained dogs as actors - two of which are clearly Basenjis. These shorts may sometimes be seen in the U.S. on the Turner Classic Movie cable channel.

CONSTANT GARDENER - a movie about a diplomat assigned to Kenya. His wife was a bit of a radical (just a bit !) who became involved in humanitarian efforts with the people. There is a shot of a Basenji puppy in the village. It seems to be a tri, old enough to have perked up ears and with a loopy tail. A child has it on a rope leash.

"THE MAGIC OF LASSIE" (1978) with James Stewart, and Alice Faye as the waitress in the truck-stop diner. During one of the scenes, a Basenji can be seen in the cab of an 18-wheeler in the parking lot. The scene only lasts for a short time, but the cab window and the Basenji take up the full screen. It was previously thought that this scene featured in the movie "Smokey and the Bandit" (1977) and our thanks go to Barbara Moulton of Pennsylvania for pointing out the error.
