Dog escape

Basenji Talk
  • :eek: Well this weekend we went to stay with some family out in the suburbs and my B loved it. They have a huge back yard to play in and the kids love him. Well one of the kids left the gate opened and when I heard our B escaped, I rushed out to grab him and then I heard a yell from my niece that he had crosses the street and ran into someone's opened front door. :eek: I couldn't believe it, I rushed in and there he was strolling through the house like owned that place. I scooped him up and gave thousands of apologies. I'm just thankful a car did not come and also glad he did not nip anyone. Believe me those kids got an earful. If you love your furry cousin, you better make sure the gate is locked. Needless to say that the rest of the day I was all eyes on the B. Funny story though now that all is O.K.:cool:

  • We'd had Keoki for one day before he found a space in the gate that he could squeeze through. I had just told my 16 yo daughter that he'd found it, and I was going in the house, so she needed to watch extra carefully and keep him away from that part of the yard.

    Within five minutes the yells came, "The puppy's out!" Grrrrrr
    Fortunately, he was only investigating the neighbor's back yard. The kids got an earful, and dh fixed the problem that night.

  • Boy, you were lucky…funny story after the fact...I wonder what those people thought when he was walking through their house...

  • Who let the fox in..hahaha

    If the dogs are having similar symptoms as in the previous years, they need to be treated ASAP! It is my understanding that many are developing the acquired Fanconi Syndrome and need to be put on the protocol. Many vets though do not have the equipment to do the venous blood gas test and get an accurate diagnosis. Emergency vets should have the equipment. Do not buy any dog treats that come from China and if the package does not state where it is from then do not buy it! Jennifer

    My old bitch is totally averse to being crated on her own. As a young adult when I was trying to insist that she go in on her own (after trying every method) I cruelly put a padlock on her crate. I left her a little while in the living room and was amazed to hear her scratching on the door. When I went in I was I found the padlock still intact on the crate. She must have pushed down one end and clambered through the gap!!!

    Thanks for the advice everyone! Picking them up would have probably worked in this situation because the other dog was small, but i couldn't think that fast as it was happening! but carrying some kind of spray sounds like a good idea, i am going to look for that at the pet store. Thanks again!

    Hollie will hide her treats and her dog food. Her favorite hiding place is under MY pillow in the bed. She has tried to hide her entire food bowl by pushing one of her plush toys with her nose in an attempt to get the toy on top of her food bowl. Why doesn't she just use her mouth to pick it up and place it on the bowl? Silly dog!

    That's right I forgot about goose poop. Also flattened dead dried out birds. Mine also would eat dirt and tan bark. "What the hell was I missing in their diet" I'd ask myself. (-:
