Please tell me they will melt

Basenji Talk
  • I hate my dogs today (okay only the senji).

    First, because of her steroids, Sayblee has kept me up for over a week. She can't just get up to get a drink, she has to mess with the chow or the trash. So I have been up hourly. Husband away so last night (he won't put up with screaming so crating at night not option when he is home) at 1:30 I put them in their crates on the far end of the house. I do feel more human today. Not sure she and I are going to survive this month of steroids!

    But that's not why I hate them. Though i am sure the fatigue is contributing.

    It rained nearly all day yesterday… so they were inside nearly all day. Now its raining today again. No exaggeration, since I THREW them out to potty at 6:30, they have DEMANDED to leave the bedroom and go out about 20 times. I have given in 5 of them. They go to the door, see rain, RUN back to the bedroom. Now, the window in the bedroom is open.. right? They SEE its raining out the front of the house. But NOOOOOOOOO, gotta make sure its raining out the back.

    So this last time I threw them out the back door in the rain. I hope they melt. I really do. I'll reconstitute them or dehydrate them into basenji form after the rains stop.

  • Goodness you are a mess. Slow down and know there are better days ahead. Good look to you.

  • Oah Debra I am so sorry to hear that they are getting to you. Sounds like things are really hectic right now. Good luck and stay strong. Things will become normal again. (Hopefully soon!)

    Abbey was almost banned from my son's house after she killed the cat's feather on a stick thingy. We don't have our own cat although she'd like to have one of her own. She loves cats!
  • I tried to tell them….

    I am so glad they both returned..scary. I was told a long time ago to make sure you walk you dog past your house in the front so they know/recognize where they live, if they only see a backyard, yet get out on the front, they don't know which house is theirs..makes sense.

    Well, Tosca is just fine I think:) I was kinda worried last night, as the emergency vet said it would probably be ok since she only had half a pill, but they said I could call poison control to be sure. Well, that was going to be pretty expensive (55) so I wasn't too crazy calling about half of a pill, plus she seemed ok, and the vet seemed pretty confident. Then this morning I was a little worried again because she wouldn't eat more than about half her food, which is extrememly unusual, she usually gobbles it right up! But I had to go to work, and I called our usual vet on the way and they said it shouldn't be a problem. Luckily, now that I am home tonight she seems fine:) Thanks for the suggestions, we just got Tosca in Feb and this is the first time I have ever had a dog ( I was deathly scared of them as a kid) but she really has grown on me, she is so sweet, and not like a normal dog.

    I personally know a Basenji that died from raisin toxicity. It is definitely a real, and serious concern.
