    I like his baby blanket too! He is very cute. Doesn't look like he wants to share his toys with you.

    haven't you ever read the Basenji property laws?

    1. If I like it, it's mine
    2. If it's in my mouth, it's mine
    3. If I had it a little while ago, it's mine
    4. If I can take it from you, it's mine
    5. If it's mine, it must never be yours.
    6. If it looks like mine, it's mine
    7. If I saw it 1st, it's mine
    8. If it's edible it's mine
    9. If you have something and put it down, it's mine
    10. If I chew something up, all the pieces are mine
    11. If it's broken, it's yours :)

    Actually for Ruby…#11 would read "if it's broken, it is still mine". :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Great post, btw! :D

    Kippy_whip signed up first

    Kip was from the Dogs Trust (rescue centre) didn't know anything about him, Somebody on our local park mentioned Basenji's and it was only when we saw the pictures on this site that we realised how similar he looks.

    Don't know who is more trouble Kip or Kippy_whip – pesky teenagers --:D

    I have three teenagers {and one child that is 20, so not far out of the teens….}, and two basenjis.

    The Basenjis on their worst day are far easier than the teenagers on theirs. LOL :p

    And to think, I still have two kids left to become teenagers. :rolleyes:

    How many toys do they need? My guess would be far more than we can afford! LOL

    I asked Zpuppy this question - How many toys do you need?

    Her reply?

    "All of them"

    Medjai's answer is as many as can fit in his corner, even if they are shredded up.

    Their basket, their corner, MY corner, the middle of the floor, under the table, under the chair, in the crate, in the kitchen, in the living room,on my lap, under my feet…....

    ARE there enough toys in the stores to satisfy these guys? I'm thinking no.

    And even when new toys arrive, the old ones cannot be given up!

    I loved that. I only joined this site tonight. Your laws just say it all for me. I was reprimanded by an elderly couple on a country park near my home today because my basenji stole the foil cases that their pies had been in ha ha.

    hahaha! And the right one is always on the bottom of the toy basket, so they all have to come out and be strewn through the house! :D :)

    @Kipawa: He's got so much character in his face! Quite the cutie. Does he take his half out of the middle of the bed? ;) Most definitely, lol. He starts out all curled up between us, but if either of us moves, he pushes his legs out and sleeps like he's in rigor mortis as if to keep us from moving into "his space". It's going to be interesting when he gets bigger…might have to use him as an excuse to get a king size :p

    @Basenjimamma: Great picture.. we just managed to train our four dogs to go to their fancy, huge dogbed right by the couch, so we could have the couch back..I miss snuggling with them, but it is nice to be able to sit.. Once we were thinking about this huge dogbed for our 4 but then we realized this dogbed probably would be used by us instead of B' (typically) :rolleyes::D.

    @kiroja: LOL Kim, I had one of those too and Mojo learned to pull the string as well! Soo funny how they entertain themselves. :) Two problems though, first he would tend to chew up the plastic ring that held the string so couldn't play with it no more. And second they remade them with solid tabs for pulling which wasn't easy for the dog to grab and it was very difficult to find replacements with the original plastic ring type handle that he could hook his tooth through. I wish I would have made a video, that was priceless. Thanks! Hihihi :D They do that here exact the same… break the plastic ring.. We buy a new one the next time we see it.. The price here is around 1 dollar i think.. @kiroja: Ok, I found another good one! [yt]IUbW2i0Mc7k[/yt] This was a different type of cat toy. Mojo LOVED playing with it! It was a little electronic mouse that spun around, lighted up, and taunted the dogs. :) It was motion activated so he could keep himself occupied for a while. Although the noise did get a little annoying. lol After a while he would start chewing it, so I'd have to take it away and save it for another special moment. :) He got real good at grabbing it by the tail and whipping it around the room. Once he came a little too close to smashing it through the tv, it definitely had some weight to it! I think I used to buy them for around $6 at WalMart, so some fun and cheap entertainment. lol This one is so great! B's are so very smart!!!! Our Buana learned it from the sister of Hailey (that stayed with us for 4 months) and Chafuko learned it from Buana. Hailey learned it from Chafuko!
