    Ours love the heat but will definitely mix it up between sun and shade or come inside where it is cool (we have a dog door) In the winter, they can often be found by a heat vent if the fireplace is not on. There is a vent blowing right out below the sink here. [image: TiggerandRoo.jpg] And there is one here that is under the sideboard, but blows out really nicely across a wide area. Often a couple will be here. [image: photo.jpg] Then there is this silly dog that loves heat so much she will sit by the charcoal grill even in the summer. I felt ho hot her head was so I had to get the thermometer out. [image: IMG_0089.jpg]

    LOL I often bring warm laundry up from the basement & fold it on the bed. When I dump the pile of warm clothes on the bed I am guaranteed to have 2 Basenjis in the middle of the pile. Also, we just moved into a new house with heat registers on the floor. This is Jibini's FIRST encounter with such a thing; every other house we've been in had them on the ceiling. I was waiting to see how long it would take him to catch on….for about a week he persisted in his usual warmth-seeking behavior (cuddling with me on the couch). But on a particularly cold night he was walking by the living room heat register and he stopped in his tracks, did an about face and stood looking at the register in disbelief. Initially he kept standing & rotating so as to "warm" his whole body....then he curled up for a nap in front of the register. Silly dogs!!

    Wyatt will ignore all of his toys for a small water bottle with rocks in it. I wish I would have known that before I bought a bunch of toys for him. :o

    In my personal opinion, basenjis don't get along with most dogs generally unless they are brought up to do so. They are a small package with a big attitude. My dog liked some dogs, others she would have outright wars with, especially if it had anything to do with her territory. My girl had a peeing competition with the scottie terrier across the way from us, every time we let her out, the first thing on her agenda was race off and to reclassify her boundaries! And when the scottie was let out she did the same.
