Dolce update

Show Off Your Dog
  • Just wanted to provide an update on Dolce. She is doing well and seems to be anti-basenji in her mannerisms so far. She is a major lap dog, can't stand to be away from us and loves to give kisses. She started her show training last week and begins her obedience training on Saturday. She already knows sit, lie down, shake & stand. Stay, however, is not in her vocabulary, I find it difficult to catch her sitting still for photographs. Below is a list of her major likes and dislikes.

    Likes:
    Eating-Anything
    Shredding her beds
    Sleeping on the heat vents
    Rawhide
    The neighbors rat terriers
    Being on our laps
    Giving kisses
    Chewing on Denim
    Lying in towels just out of the dryer

    Dislikes:
    Sleeping through the night
    The Crate!!!!!
    Snow
    Going outside when its cold or rainy-Which is everyday in GA this year!
    Cars
    Not being allowed on the furniture

  • Sounds like Dolce is doing realy well

  • When I die I want to be reincarnated as a basenji in your household!! Dolce already owns more clothing & accessories than I do!

    She's sooo stinking cute! Are you bringing her to the lure coursing trial in Cartersville this weekend?

  • Awwww there's my girl. You forgot one of her likes….chewing on people's hair. :D

    Me too! Natalie spends more on the dog in the first 2 weeks than she spends on me in a year. We will try to come on Sunday to the trials.

  • She is lovely. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks everyone! We couldn't be happier, he is everything we could have asked for! Still training for the therapy route, but we certainly won't force it on him if he isn't enjoying it. He wants a sister…I mean WE want him to have a sister :)... but we're probably going to hold off another couple years before doing so! Especially since we may possibly be moving in the next year or so.

    she went from being a fussy puppy to being a puppy that just wants and loves food. if you have food she will do any trick you ask her with 110% enthusiasam if it means shes gettin food lol but i am glad shes not a fussy girl! We are waiting to hear back from the breeder to see what pups are reserved and which arent. Very excited. Hope gets to play with a chinese crested at work and she also plays with another two iggies down at the small breed social i run every fortnight, she seems to know that she has to be careful with the smaller dogs :) shes not much into wrestling with others, more or less just wants to run run run! i will have to upload a video of her and yoshi (the chinese crested) playing at work (the most ive seen her play! as usually its just tag, now chase me!) and will post the link here. So funny and cute. will post iggie baby photos once a decision's made :) EDIT: Video link to them playing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDTjuz_tNpM

    @Mantis: How old is she? Tell us more about her. She is so cute! When we got her (late Oct 2006) the vet thought she was 9-12 mos based on teeth. Over the months she has been getting more spots on her belly. Dont know if that gives any sign of age or not. She seems smaller than some of the Basenjis on this site. She is very thin and muscular. Is there a difference between sizes Male vs females? Could she have been a runt?
