Basenji Talk
  • We are trying to figure out what we should do about church this weekend since we will have Guru. Should one of us stay home or will he be okay alone :( I dont know if I can leave him :o I wish I could take him with us but I think ppl would have this reaction :eek: Hmm what to do.

    Shyla, you are one seriously brave woman ;) I have a three year old human…I can't imagine having four six and under, and adding a basenji puppy! Good luck!

    Yes, bless you. Do you roller scate by any chance?

  • Congratulations….for the second time today! How funny that you and Vanessa are getting your new babies on the same day!! Hey, I saw a photo of Tori Spelling with her pug in a doggie baby stroller the other day. Maybe you can sneak him into church in a stroller :) Or get one of those double strollers for him and your other baby :)

    Oh see it gets easier with more :) The 6 and 5 yr olds play together and the 3 yr old well he needs a play mate to get introuble with as his little brother is too little to get into trouble :) I was Homeschooling too but well we decided to give me a break for this year and the oldest 2 are in school all day. I am so bored most of the time. The baby sleeps and without a fellow play mate my ds well doesnt get into as much trouble. Did I mention I like living on the edge :)

    Nope I dont roller skate. I used to before i had kiddos now I think I might fall over. We do have a grass strip/ park across from our house and a park at the end of the street that we go to almost everyday after school. With so many little monkies running about I've learned that the more you keep them busy the less trouble they get into.

    I might try roller skating again, I love to go out and about and I know dh would watch the kiddos while me and Guru go out for a skate :) Good idea :)

  • Congrats Shyla!! :D You're going to have a wonderful week-end, I'm sure!

  • how exciting….basenji puppy behavior is so funny when they are so little....they look like little pot bellied pigs with the swollen tummys and their scrappy doo charisma....

    My husband was afraid that Cooper was "my" dog at first, but things really evened out after we went through training as a family. Now, Cooper is attached to me during the day (when I have days off), and glues himself to Geoff after dinner every night. He still walks and rides in the car better with me, though. And I'm the only one who can brush his teeth!

    I think a nice long walk does help with car anxiety. It allows them the time to "do their thing: and everyone knows an exercised B is a calmer B….the only other article I once read offered advice on giving a small bit of ice cream to settle their belly. Most dogs do not do well with ice cream but they do make ice cream for dogs (Frosty Paws) and you could try that I suppose. Perhaps if the car ride was associated with "good times" it might lessen the anxiety a little. Like any species, if your B really has motion sickeness all you can do is to try and be alert to it and maintain hydration. It's good you are aware and I'm sure you will take care. My best to you and your Chance. M
