The adventures of Channing!

Show Off Your Dog
  • Here is a little shortened photo timeline of my life with my basenji, Channing. The first photo was when I picked him out from the litter of pups, The second photo was after we got home from picking him up from the airport. We lived at my apartment for 5 days before taking a 15 hour road trip down to Gulfport Mississippi for a horse show I was working at and showing at, where we stayed for 3 weeks. This was his first time ever seeing the ocean and experiencing the beach as well as his first horseshow. My boss had a JRT pup, Daisy, who was a month older Channing and they quickly became bestfriends. After spending 3 weeks in Gulfport we drove up to Indiana to visit my parents and brothers for a week (it was my spring break week), where Channing played frisbee for the first time. He also (thought he) helped repair the dishwasher. We went back to Ky and watched every UK game together and often with friends too, but when we won our 8th national title mom & her friends took me home because it was way to wild for a puppy :) His favorite thing to do (other than help manage the horse farms) is to go seadoing when we're at my parents. He could seadoo all day long! We do goofy things together, such as taking silly pictures and we made a birthday card for my brother one night. He just recently got to go to my parents hunting cabin, located on 40 acres of woods. We went on lots of hikes and played in the field. We also went 4wheeling (very slowly on groomed terrain) , which he enjoyed, but not quite as much as seadoing.

    P.S. he will be celebrating is 1st birthday on November 7th :)

    My golden retriever does take off after the deers but he seems to be more startled by them, not saying he won't. Never say Never. However, as with Levi he is also showing great promise with the whistle recall as well. We practice it all the time on the trail, and seems to respond about 95% of the time. I am aware of the possibly of him chasing something, but I am also fairly sure he would recall with the whistle once done chasing as my golden retriever does. We also don't have typically anything dangerous out in these woods. This is all property of William and Mary College in Williamsburg, Va and just contains hiking/biking and jogging trails. The only thing we have here are deer and squirrels, we do have racoon and skunks and opossums but are seen very rarely though I do watch out for possible situations. Thanks you for the advice though, it's always welcome. But just thought I would show off some pictures of our happy adventures! Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk

    @SenjiShowgirl: oh your poor B's! you cruel, evil mommy! tho i would like to see how Zumi would respond to dock jumping as we go swimming all the time. He always jumps right into the lake or river whenever we go. Mojo's forward shot is one of my favorites! and i agree, if looks could kill you'd be hospitalized. when did you do dock jumping! Well we haven't done any yet. lol This was just a first swimming lesson. And at home we've been working on building up drive for retrieving a special wubba toy that can go in the water. They're all retrieving at home pretty good, but Mojo and Cleo have already had some retrieval training.
