First Bath and First Rain Walk

Basenji Talk
  • Magic does not very like wet grass:eek:

  • LOL, sounds like you should call her Princess Magic

  • :D :D :D Her name - Magic of Luxury:D almost how princess:D

  • Thats a very cute name!! :D

  • Rain does not bother our dogs as long as you go with them. Going alone- forget it!

    Or male pee's on him self all the time, then he promptly licks it off (refer to no kissing thread)

  • So maybe I got one that doesn't mind water to much.

    ha ha, just wait….

  • @Mantis:

    ha ha, just wait….

    LOL, I don't know he tried to climb in the shower with me yesterday, and it's been raining since he got here and Reggie is more unhappy about the rain than Tiggy

  • I have a cat that is fascinated by the bathroom. Tuk will lay in the bathroom sink, even if I have the water turned on lightly! If I am in the bathtub, he will try to sit on my chest. If I am taking a shower, he will jump in and stand between the bathtub and the shower curtain. When I exit the shower/tub, he jumps into the bathtub and walks around or else rubs against my wet legs. Its weird. He's weird.

  • Uku doesn't enjoy rain much but wet grass is ok!
    I haven't tried the shower yet thinking he was too young for it :( , but the next nice and sunny day, I will give it a try.

  • I have a cat that will walk around in the rain, she likes it. :eek: But if it is thundering, she heads for her cat door in the garage, hates thunder. My Basenji, Sahara hates wet grass, but is better about getting a bath now that I give her a treat when we are done. We carried her out in the boat, with her lifepreserver on and she liked it Ok. She is getting better but won't go outside to potty when it is raining unless Mom goes with her on a leash and an umbrella. Hence, her name Africian Queen Sahara!!!!!!:D

    You know how they use Dawn dish soap to clean birds covered with oil? What do you think about using it on a basenji? I never have, I saw a commercial a few days ago, for Dawn,and just wondered. It can be used on a lot of things, our quartz countertop in the kitchen included Dawn as an product that could be used on it - no other dish soap was mentioned.

    It's funny how Lillie refuses to go outside in the rain to do her business. Surprise yesterday when it was raining, she spotted the rottweiler who lives down the block. She ran outside on my deck to get a good view of him. Hmm, what's that all about?:) Thankfully, it has stopped raining (at least for awhile) so my husband and son just took Lillie out for a long, long walk. She is so funny! Jodie:)

    It all depends on how she was "down" for example a "crouching down" wit her body very low to the ground from head to tail & focusing on the other dog then I would say definitely pouncing position…but this could be puncing for play. My girl does this very often when she plays. If it's just down with her head up end front elbows on the ground then I would think she's just trying to send a signal...hey I don't mean any harm & I'm cool & calm :) part of their doggy language.
