@jordandwilly - Thanks for clearing that up.... 9-5 is just fine, IMO.... I work and have always had to leave mine when I was at work, never an issue. That said, we were able to set up the house that access to the backyard (with 10 to 12' privacy fences) with a doggy door and a dog room in the house for them, Locks on the gates so there is NO access for anyone. Dogs sleep 90% of the day so being at work doesn't bother them... never have mine even when I had a litter in the house (And have been in the breed as owner/breeder for 35+ years). You can hire a dog walker to take them out mid day..which is a good solution. and give them a mid day meal depending on their age. I do not and never have used free feeding, period. Especially if you have more that one... you never know what/who is eating what. And you can set up camera's on line to watch them from "afar".... LOL. Keep in mind people that many of us need to work and have day jobs. The most important thing is the time you need to spend with them when you are home. Example would be, if you have young children and you work... when you get home you are going to spend your time with your human children... NO dog would be happy if left out... they need their time also because they are a family member and need as much time as a human child. Again in my opinion

I have two tattoos, the first is my dear departed Thunders' paw print. It's right above my heart.I got it four months before he passed.
I'm so glad that I did,as I had no idea he would leave me so soon after.The other tattoo is of him running full out. It was taken from a pix of him at a LGRA meet. It's on my left upper arm.
I feel very comforted by having these tattoos,I look at them daily and remember how special he was.
I would recommend anyone who loses a special B to get a tattoo of them. It is a healing thing.At least for me.Kathryn D. Ladick

I don't have any tatoos, mainly because I have never been able to pinpoint something I know I would be happy with for the rest of my life. But I am pretty sure I could be happy with a Basenji tat forever

I was wondering when i was watching it if he might be a member, really pleased he is, was lovely to see someone so positive about the breed. And he was rather lovely to watch
-
Awww… I approve!
Rocky1, would love to see pictures of your tattoos if you don't mind sharing.

There are a few exhibitors in the northwest that I have spotted basenji tattoos on and I remember seeing a spread in the basenji magazine or maybe the BCOA bulletin about someone who had a mural done on her upper back in color. It was pretty cool.
I have tattoos myself but have yet to acquire anything basenji related. Key word, yet…
-
Wow, very cool. Quite a mellow basenji IMO.

Here is my father's tattoo of our Geasy :).
I have two non-Basenji tattoo and I really envy of this dad's tattoo.
But I am planning to get Basenji tattoo soon. -

Irena - love your dad's tatoo of Geasy - the artist did a wonderful job! If I were a guy, and if I were younger, and if I could stand the pain, I'd definitely have a B tatoo!
-
Irena, your dad's tattoo is beautiful!
I've been thinking about getting one of Cody or to represent Cody, but I haven't figured out exactly what yet. I have about 17 regular tattoos now, so I think my best friend deserves to leave his mark too -
Irena - What a super tattoo of your dad's.
I think it's a lvvely idea and I'm admiring of you brave people with your tattoos.
-
Irena, your Dad's tattoo looks realy good.
I'm not brave enough to have a tattoo
