All is good in the world again

Basenji Talk
  • We took our first vacation without pups in 4 years last week going on a Carribean cruise for my 50th birthday. Pups had it good as our son lives at home and was able to continue spoiling them in the manner to which they are accostomed. Unfortunately he works nights so they had to, perish the thought sleep in crates. We got in just before midnight and we greeted with lots of tail wags, zoomies and roos, nice to see we were missed a bit.

  • As I have gotten older, I find traveling without my b's isn't that much fun.
    Cruising is fun…but I did miss my dogs too much.
    We like driving trips where we take the dogs with us.

  • I ageee, we prefer to go with the dogs to places, the timeshare we own no longer has many places to trade for that allows pets, so we are giving our last couple weeks to friends instead of using them, then just doing RV events that all the dogs can attend too.

  • A Caribbean cruise sounds lovely - I bet you missed your Basenjis and isn't it lovely to be greeted like that on your return.

  • yes it's a shame we cant take our pups more places. Glad to see you have a good time and made it home safely.

  • We just got back from 5 days in Maui. Had to put our Laika in a kennel which we found after a long search. It was not easy to leave her there, she did ok we think. But was so glad to see us. We really hated to do this as we adopted her from a kennel 6 month ago. All our travel will now be by car only so we can take her. My husband had to pat everydog he saw in Maui. She is his baby.

    @Basenjimamma: Basil boy..I am trying to understand what type of harness you are talking about. I have or maybe had (lost two leashes at the dogpark a few weeks ago, when son thought it fitting to fish with one and loose it, fish the first one out with the second one and loose it too..! )..any way..I have/had a leash that had a big metal loop by the collar that you threaded the leash after wrapping it around the body of the dog, so in essence it was a leash that could be used as a harness..is that what you are talking about? I think so… but my sister has never used it as a leash and it's not one straight long rope it's two long parallel ropes when it's all undone... But maybe this would serve as the same thing?

    The old adage - "A tired Basenji is a good Basenji" - comes to mind. :) Last thing we do at night before turning in is either walk ours or take her to the park. Then she gets a chew to keep her busy while we're getting ready for bed, then everyone's under the covers (she burrows). Even then, there are nights…especially if the cat is out and about being adventurous. You have my sympathy... :)
