Already missing my girls…

Basenji Talk
  • I am away from home for about a week and a half (fiance had to attend a convention for work and I'm along for for a little r&r) and I miss my girls terribly.:( I can't remember the last time I was able to type without Kit in my lap touching keys at random moments.

  • Yes it is sad when we have to leave our furbabies for awhile.

    Haha, I know how that is. Medjai thinks my trackpad on my laptop tastes good, so he licks it and moves the mouse all the time. He also thinks he is a fly and can land wherever he wants to take a look at things, so he'll walk on the keyboard and sit on my lap resting his head on the mouse button.

  • I know it's tough. I just got back from two and a half weeks in Hawaii. The littlest B and I fell asleep ion the chair together when I got home :) Such a nice feeling. I missed them all so much. That's why I suggested a Basenji rental service in another thread…..

  • Lol! A basenji rental service would be great right about now.

  • poor you!! i have to go on holiday in a month or so and Kip has to go in kenels.. but he should be ok… he's a rescue dog!!

    Kit is probably fine too

  • I probably need "professional" help, but I don't like to be away from mine even for an extra few hours, like working late, or going to some social function at night. I like them with me all the time! I've had other dogs through my life , but there's something about these….....:rolleyes:

  • We finally made it home this past Saturday. It was so good to see the girls and they were really excited to have us back as well. We have been spending much quality couch time to make up for our time apart!

    New update: Tika is no longer in heat! Yay! Remy got neutered and is doing great! We got a dog trainer to come in assess the situation and she thinks it is starting to improve compared to how I described it when I booked her to come. Only Maia seems to need the muzzle, she seems to be very unsure of the puppy. We are working with her to build her confidence. The puppy doesn’t seem to have any stress with Maia around and won’t start anything. The muzzle is on just in case when I am home alone as I don’t want anything bad to happen when if I can’t separate them. The puppy is getting lots of training time to help her learn how to behave properly. With 2 people here we can have the girls on short leashes and they are fine together. They did have a small altercation of snarling but no biting and no one got hurt. The older female backed down and walked away. As much as I want her to be the top dog it seems that the puppy has a much more dominant personality. If they figure out the pack hierchy hopefully everything will settle down. The trainer says there are no pack instincts in domesticated dogs, but after having 6 basenjis I can’t agree with that in regards to basenjis. We can walk the girls together without muzzles now so I think things are more positive and they seem to be improving every day. When Remy is healed from his neuter I will get the puppy spayed and hope that calms things down even further. So far there is a lot more peace in the house. Please anyone let me know if there is anything else I should be doing to keep these girls on track. Thank you for all your advice and guidance! I am so grateful for this forum as what is normal for other dogs is not so much with these guys!

    I am really curious about what Zuri will do this autumn :rolleyes: Last year and this year too, she was in season in late May/June. And also in october last year. Poor thing - wasn't happy with beeing into it so soon again after her phantom pregnancy… This time I don't know. Thabo is telling YES. But Zuri isn't acting like that and other males are not interested yet. Would be happy if not. Currently she's in a good mood again :)
