    :eek: My basenjis are cooks!!

    After our walk this morning my husband fed the little monsters & then he left them in the kitchen & went to work. I am usually done getting ready for work about 15-20 minutes after he leaves. I keep a baby monitor on just to listen for mischief in the kitchen.

    This morning it was WAAY too quiet :confused: so I went down before I was done just to check in on them. And what do I find????…the OVEN door is opened up & the stove top pilot was ON :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: These little brats could have set our kitchen on fire! :mad: :mad: Either that or they were trying to bake a cake!

    Of course they were quietly sitting near the gate when they heard me coming down the stairs pretending they had nothing to do with this. But the evidence proved otherwise...teeth marks on the stove top knobs & teeth marks on the side of the oven door. YUP THEY WERE GUILTY AS CHARGED!!

    Does this mean I can't leave them unsupervised for a MINUTE??:mad:

    Their little basenji brains made the stove=food connection. Pretty clever. But their plans were foiled when they figured out that you gotta put something in there to make good stuff come out. That's step two and you can bet they're working on that one!

    This made me laugh LOL LOL :D…despite my anger!

    Truth is I can't stay mad at them for long.

    Oh my gosh! I read this and laughed (and covered Stormie's eyes so he doesn't get any ideas! haha!). What smart critters you've got JYS! Loved the story!! :D

    It is amazing how smart they are, but I worry that not only could the house have burned, but they may have been hurt as well. Anyone of us who has kids knows it can take just a millisecond. (I guess we all have our B kids.) When things are just too quiet, I go hunting too!

    I'm afraid If I do decide to get another I won't have a chance to introduce them beforehand as it Will probably be a puppy I bring from the US.. I doubt there will be a problem since she will be a young puppy…

    We have actually been really lucky in this regard. Our backyard is enclosed by a picket fence reinforced with chicken wire around the bottom. It was here when we moved in last year. Cyrus has never tried to dig or climb out of the fence at all. We are actually hoping to replace our fencing with vinyl this year, so it will be even more secure. Cyrus does not have access to the outdoors when we are not home, however. He is too clever for his own good, and we worry about what he would do if left to his own devices!

    So are these Af's different than our domestic B's?

    Jayden is super gross when it comes to what he'll eat: poop, vomit, and, if he pees on the patio, he'll lick that. Honest!!! We feed him and we feed him very well! Yucccchhhhh! Pat

    Mine want to sleep on long, rainy days…..like today. Once they have their first potty of the day and realize it's a downpour day, their whole demeanor changes, and it's a slow-moving, sleepy day all day.

    Does he know sit or down? If not, should teach him… and then when your daughter comes out of her room, she should immediately have him sit.. (would help at first if she has treats for him)... then she can reward him for doing a behavior that is acceptable... I was thinking the same thing. This is how I got caesar to stop jumping up on people at the door when he would try to greet them.
