    even before you open the email....
    then...

    Hi from Alabama....
    The babies are doing hunkydory. We put up the tree this weekend, and they are leaving it alone (for now!). However, they are both displaying new and amazing ways to get naughty...

    Ode is quite the athlete. He has perfected a standing leap from the floor to the kitchen counter, 3'2".

    Nu has figured out how to unscrew jar lids. One paw on the jar and push with her nose untill the contents spill out...

    My canine Bonnie & Clyde.

    Merry Christmas!

    ...............
    TOO FUNNY !

    This is hilarious! It is nice to get wonderful messages - from anyone, especially your puppy's owner like this. :)

    The above quote struck me so I have to comment. Duke does this sometimes. Like a flying magic trick he does - from the floor, jumps strait up vertically into the air, propelling himself over a lap, landing on the sofa. It's surprising / shocking - we all look at each other . . . like "Did you see that??" LOL :D

    This is my favorite part! I too emailed my breeder sharing this info with them. I couldn't believe it until I saw C3 UP on the table with NO running start LOL!!

    I had nose surgery a few months ago and when I got home I was worried the dogs would be so excited and jump all on me, but it was crazy how mild mannered and dare I say tame/domesticated they were. I swear they knew I was hurt and gave me a day or so of good behavior. They are truly great dogs to own!

    Butu's very quiet, but the other day, we were walking past the church and a lady came out unexpectedly. Well, whatever my boy is, he's not a stoic, so he screamed. Wow, did she jump! I apologised but mentioned, to be fair, that Butu had been startled too. Got one of the nastiest looks I've evr seen ;-)

    I really believe this helps. Uzie does have separation anxiety and just about 10 min before I leave, I put on a station from Directv that has easy listening. I enjoy it when I am home and do notice that all three of my pups do seem to settle down on their beds and enjoy it! I thank you for posting the link, my girlfriend needs this for her aging Silky who gets so worked up during a storm that he defecates all through the house…..

    QUOTE=LeeL: I have noticed that it is a lot easier to accidentally train a Basenji than on purpose. ;) And not necessarily something you WANT them to learn!

    Ft. Funston is amazing! Some years back I visited a friend in San Francisco and we took her Husky there several times…doggie heaven! Worth a long drive to go there once in a while! Anne in Tampa, with a few good dogparks, but nothing is like Ft. Funston!

    Sometimes the best medicine is to be around those you love. Hopefully being with her family will help her continue to heal. Thanks for the update….keep us posted. (Sending healing thoughts to Annie)
