Loki & Kaia

Show Off Your Dog
  • It's been quite some time since I've posted on the forum. Hard to believe it's been a year since we added Kaia, and 2 since bringing home Loki, time flies! Here are a "few" photos from last year. Feisty little Kaia even caught a duck (twice) in the yard, didn't manage to get any photos of that, maybe next time if the ducks ever come back ;)

  • great photos, especially the beach

  • Basenji water babies I can't believe my eyes, love all the awkward sleeping/sitting poses aren't they funny dogs. I wish I had two, looks like so much fun they have together. Beautiful dogs, lovely photo's, thanks for sharing, I'm very jealous. Has Kaia learnt a lot from Loki, did it make puppyhood easier with one already trained?

  • Thanks for posting, I enjoyed looking at them. With contrasting colours, at least you never have to wonder which dog you are looking at from a distance! :)

  • Stash- They definitely have some awkward poses (see below) they get themselves into, mostly Kaia since she insists on laying on top of Loki and he's only allowed to rest his head on her. She also likes to lay down and tilt her head backwards so she can stare at stuff upside down. They have tons of fun…wrestle sessions every evening and Loki will hide under the bed and sometimes even baroo at her! Each puppyhood was different, but she did learn some stuff from him like potty training, going into the water, sitting stretched across to the window ledge, and certain tricks she's watched him perform and then copied to get a treat.

    eeeefarm- Contrasting colors is lovely! Our friends have 2 r/w boys who look so similar that I have to look at their front legs to tell them apart. All 3 red boys at a distance can be a bit difficult, but Loki is different enough that he's generally easy to pick out of the group :)

  • They're so pretty and look very happy together! It really does seem easier to have two.

    Little Kaia is all grown up! Ava is, too… in size. She still acts like a rambunctious puppy. ;)

    I'm guessing Kaia, like Ava, thinks that girls are boss and rules the roost at your house. Loki doesn't seem to mind. Such a good-natured boy!

    I was actually so impress with them when we brought them home. It was so easy they slept the whole way home. It was awesome!

    @Kipawa: Jess, I don't think Maya has a problem with weight, either light or too heavy. She looks very good. As long as you know she is eating wel, is healthy and is exercising, don't be too concerned. I realize their IS a standard for the basenji, but they are living beings that can't always match up to a picture in a book. She is a very, very good eater. She LOVES her food and its often more of a problem to keep her weight down as she will steal anything she can get hold of :rolleyes: Since having a basenji I have learned that they are worse thievess even than labradors!! :eek: I was defrosting a chicken last week and noticed it had disappeared from the kitchen worktop.. where do i find it? Outside with Maya and she'd eaten about half of it :rolleyes: She is a pig!! I walk her for about 2 hours a day now, most of which is offlead running (we walk to the horses fields and back each evening so she spends a good hour running around the fields and woods and farmland!) so she has quite a lot of exercise compared to some im sure, but if she didnt have that she would be a little porker cos she eats a lot :p But at the same time, cos she has so much time running around burning calories I do need to make sure her food intake is high enough. She is definately the highest energy dog i've ever had :eek:

    @hdolbow: LOL ! of courseeee!!!! when doesn't rocky make those devil noises!? i really think he is a little demon. lol One of these days I am going to have to tape the sounds she makes. It cracks me up! A little scary for other people, my mother-in-law was scared of her the first time she did it. Anymore I just tell her no and knock it off and she normally does!
