Bone burying

Basenji Talk
  • Today I gave EL D a pizzle stick as a special Sunday treat. He's had them before but this time after chewing/eating about 1/3 he got kind of excited and wanted to go outside with it. So I let him out and he prances around with it until he finally found a spot to bury it in (about 10 inches of snow bank). This is the first time he's ever buried anything! And I wonder now if I'm going to have any garden come this next summer :p

    But then after maybe an hour he wants to go back outside and heads straight for the burial and digs it up and comes back inside with it. I guess he just wanted to chill it before finishing it off! :)

  • Don't you put things you can't finish back in the 'fridge? He is just being a good boy!

    Hi @Vesna, it’s interesting you say that about the spay. Our tri-color actually just got spayed this week and her coat shed before that. I noticed small amount of black hair growing in where she shed, hopefully it grows back. What phase is your tri-color at? Did this just happen?

    Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.
