I have seen the people who have dogs in the large crates weighed at check in. Only because it was a large carrier. Honestly I would carry her because it gives the appearance that they are lighter then they appear.
Yes, the tape works great, but I think I know what rubber brush you mean. My sister has a broom like that - she got it at an Equine Affair in MA one year. It works great. Gets all the hair up when she sweeps. She's got a black Aussie/Golden mix - can you say HAIR??!!! I don't think I could handle it…LOL!
Wow! How beautiful you all are…including the landscape! Please send snow our way...we miss it...it is going to be near 50 this weekend...sniff sniff...I'm tired of mud season every other month...
Thanks for the pictures! Happy New Year!
Sahara went out her doggie door once before I could get her collar on as well, but thank God she didn't go beyond her boundry. I also have the underground fence and she is afraid to go even close to the boundry. I had to spike it up b/c I found her in my neightbors yard once chasing a cat. The problem was she would not go back over the boundaries to get back in the yard. I had just got back from work when I saw her, I would freak if she disappeared. She will also chase the cars that pass my house, but stops short of the boundry. It is a good thing I have it or she would be dead by now. Sometimes when I come home from work it is dark and she is sleeping somewhere new in the house and I freak when I can't find her. I will start calling her and she comes to me slowly and stretching with a look like as if to say, " Yea, what do you want, I was sleeping sooooooo good". haha!!!!!:D
LOL! Stormie did that once when visiting my Dad (who is not a basenji fan to begin with - I'm pretty sure I must be adopted ;o) ). Dad was less than pleased with the little oily senji footprints through the garage, but he did find the humor in seeing Stormie in the bath tub looking like a disgraced, drowned rat! :o)
Ode is quite the athlete. He has perfected a standing leap from the floor to the kitchen counter, 3'2".
This is my favorite part! I too emailed my breeder sharing this info with them. I couldn't believe it until I saw C3 UP on the table with NO running start LOL!!
I think she's had a little too much birthday. She's been sacked out on the couch for 3 hours! The chihuahua wouldn't let her anywhere near her grandma.
I too have flown with a pup in a Sherpa… one thing, be sure that they have a not been fed right before... and also the longer you can keep the pup awake, the more likely they will sleep the entire time. I kept the pup up and playing for at least 3 hours before the flight... and I do mean playing hard.. (I was pretty tired too...)I also did a 5+ hour flight, no accidents. But a friend of mine had a great idea... and it does work, take along some puppy wee/wee pads... you can go into the bathroom, put down the pad on the floor and let the little one go... however with as short of a flight you are doing, I doubt it will be necessary....
Sahara was all quiet the other day for me to investigate and found she had one of my Hallmark Christmas ornaments, it was a barbie ornament, one that I liked alot. I said, "Sahara what have you got"? She took off, but lost it in the run, haha!!! I got it, and threw it away!!! If I didn't love her so much, I would have been real mad, but what the heck!!!!
Ha Ha Ha
You are funny!
This would be a pretty pictre when shredded all over your living room..
hallway… etc!
I could picture this in my house..
NOT a pretty picture! LOL
We actually did know some of what Bs are like. We went for it though and was allowed a two week test run with Joey. It took more than two weeks for him to adjust so we really didn't know how he was going to be. We actually didn't officially make him ours until after a month so we could have decided not to keep him. Despite the detruction of two pairs of shoes, blankets and towels in his crate, and a few other things, we still wouldn't trade him in! The other antics and peculiarities of this breed make up for the things lost!
My girl Lacie, does the exact same thing when we goto the dog park. My boy Ozzie will go explore a little bit and watch the other dogs play but not really get involved and he will always come back to me after a minute or two. We have only gone a couple of times but one time he finally got the urge to put him self out there and do his little sumo move and crouch down to play with this one dog, but sadly that dog wasn't interested.
I wouldnt be surprised if she didnt think I was one of her young ones! After all she thinks she is the Queen of the House. She can be really sweet when she wants to be, but then there are those times…..:eek: All I can say is Whoa!!!She challenges me more mentally than any other dog that I have ever had. I never know what to expect, but I wouldn't trade her for any other dog.:)
When I played the video in my office at home my cat wouldn't stop meowing!
Does that mean im going to be looking forward to a basenji singing and a cat as well???!!!!!!
