Bad day–> needed a laugh

Basenji Talk
  • Yesterday I had a very long and arduous day, I come home walk Oakley, feed him and get dinner going….I hadn't smiled all day and in walks Oakley ( right into a wall) because he stole the empty pasta box (my dinner) and got it stuck over his head...I didn't take a picture but it was definitely the comedic relief I needed. Thought I would share

  • The perfect way to come out of your doldrums! That must have been a picture for sure. He is a doll - bet he was embarrassed when you took the box off his head - they don't like to appear out of total control much. LOL

  • Definitely embarassed. At home I always pretend to be Oakley in a funny voice ( I'm nuts!) and I swear if he could talk it would be" ugh mom, nothing to look at here,just taking out the recycling"

    His gooberness is why I love him…always something to smile at

  • That's what makes this breed great. They are complete clowns, endless source of entertainment. :)

    AMEN!!!!! Would have had to stand with my legs close while laughing if I witnessed that one!!!! I am particularly fond of Uzie's 180 turn to let me know it is getting close to dinner time, then the 'Tissue Retrieve Game'. He promptly goes into the bathroom (the only time of day this is done….) brings out a used tissue, drops it in front of us while we are watching the 5pm news and love to have (me) get up, pick it up, and hope I turn to the kitchen to begin his dinner preparations...................

  • You can always count on them for that!!

  • Lol, i can just imagine it

  • We can always rely on Basenjis to lift our spirits!

  • Very true… He always seems to know just what I need.....but then again, there are times he seems to know just what I don't need!!! Lol

    Either way I laugh so that just goes to show I'm crazy about him

  • Basenjis are best! It is impossible for my husband and I to be around Kipawa and not smile or laugh. :) How wonderful that yours can lift your spirits as well!

    The problem becomes if you are a meek or hyper person in general, that the dog sees through you and it is very hard to pretend to be something you are not 24/7. This where you can learn from your dog / training and take some of the good for yourself. Being a strong leader, fearless, calm & in control. Who could not use some of these qualities?

    I have two kids. A ten yr old and a six yr old. Kaycee truly believes she's a kid as well. Whatever they get up to, she's right in the thick of things. God help me when we get the other baby B.

    That is a great idea, but it should be an adolescent for sure (seems to be the most trying stage). My mom also really liked our dog (the look, the no bark, typical things most people like) and she quickly changed her ideas. We were telling her about the time we had to babysit another dog and the things she did to let us know that she did not like another dog in our house (she did some very naughty things)! My mom said 'wow she is really a manipulating dog'. I said, yeah they are definately not a breed for everyone.
