You Just Have To Love 'Em

    The day started off as usual around 6:30 AM. Got the kids out for potty, started the coffee, and Uzie got his little toy plastic ball filled with some breakfast kibble. He was pawing at it and happily eating up the spilled goodies, as he made his way around the house and into the second bedroom as we hear him almost every morn as he goes about his duty. So wouldn't you know his persistence not only paid off, but got him in a bit of a jam. I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story. The moral of the story: how we have to laugh at any and all antics that don't get anyone hurt or maimed or scarred for life! We actually laughed really hard when we knew he was only shaken up for a few milli-seconds:

    :eek: Just really an angel in disguise!

    That silly Uzie! Glad he was OK, even if your room wasn't!

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D

    Sounds like a heavenly environment for pups! Yeah, I don't think I'd like to have my b named after a cut of meat either :rolleyes: We named Fiji to sound like her previous name Weegee and she adapted easily. If we bring Peanut home he may become Pinot. Red wine, red dog, y'know ;)

    That sounds good! I am working with the positive reinforcement, and for the most part it works, just in that instance she goes "deaf". I also "clicker" train Callie, and she loves that!

    I live in North Carolina, right on the coast and we have hot, hot, humid summers. Sahara loves to sit on the back steps and lay in the sun, but only after I have frozen her with AC, haha! She hates the cold, when I got her it was still cool nights here and I had a time getting her potty trained b/c she just hated the cold weather. I could not find any dog sweaters to fit her, she was only 8 wks. old, the stores were out of them, so I got smart one night and made her one from the arm of one of my husbands hunting thermal underware. She was much happier then once I got it on her, she hated me putting that thing around her neck and legs. I have her sweaters now, got them 75% off this summer. She hates the rain also, but she has on great ocassion gone on her own to potty while it was downpouring, wonders of wonders, most of the time I have to put a leash on her and pull her outside when it is raining, she will go, but not unless I keep saying, "Go Potty, Sahara". She runs like a mad dog back through her doggie door. Can't wait to see what she does if we have snow this winter, should be interesting.
