@patty and others that reference a responsible breeder: I got my Jessey (my friend dubbed him the Jester because of his loveable zaniness) - who is my second Basenji - from a responsible breeder and he was well socialized by her and then me. I took him to the dog park which he loved at first, but then after many visits, he became scared. He used to walk the neighborhood, but then became scared. Any boom/bang/bounce - he bolts home. My other Basenji was nothing like this. Jessey has his pack of BFF's but is usually snarky to other dogs (typical B!). My point is, it's not always the breeder. Dogs - like humans - can develop "head issues". It has been very frustrating for me having a neurotic dog, but I've come to accept that's him and would never love him any less! The vet gave me Solliquin to try, but I've been hesitant. Anyone out there tried it?

At first I thought it was that dog on the Conan O/Brien show! I agree…I like the crossed paws. He is a devilish looking Santa.

I dunno….a little anthropomorphization (whoo...hard to spell) is okay. Dogs are similar to people, that is why we love them so much..and why they can share our homes. OUR dogs are maybe a little more primal......
Let's not forget that humans can be horrifyingly primal as well.....
True, true & true.
My impression of the Santa dog - Looks like a Holloween photo of a vampire dog in a Santa suit and strait jacket - Poor little doggy is morphed out. :eek: How did you do it Barklessdog?

In photoshop with cut & paste
My family absolutley hated this one of the pigdog

Your family is right…..Pig dog is just not right!! I've never seen a B's tail that curly-Q'd like a pigs tail. Did you do a photo shop fix on that also or does the tail do that on its own?

It's an inside family joke, once we were in upper Michigan at a Lumber Jack festival and a hill billy came up laughing pointing at our dogs tail saying"look at that, that dog has a tail like piggy" and busts up laughing. Our dog who was facing the other way, turned around and looked him square in the eye with a really evil look. It shocked the guy and he just walked away.
Yes his tail is real and it can never uncurl. No one can touch it accept my wife & myself. She trims it no problem.
