    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]

    I believe this was one of THE most useful pieces of advice and games another dog owner had given us when it came to our puppy recall…. One day at the dog park I was talking to a man - owner of a Visla, about his dog recall and he went into a story about how his dog took off after a rabitt. He made a game of it and decided to hide on his dog, in which it took his dog 30 minutes to find it's owner and since that day his dog obeys his recall. We are lucky enough to to live in a building where there is an underground car park that is capable of holding 100 cars, but in our case there's only 6 cars, so we always play hide and seek on our B, especially after walks when his recall was poor. And because of playing this game, we have a dog that will come to us 80% of the time. We are still working on the 20%, but I'm happy that at 8 months he comes to us when we're out of site at the enclosed dog park. Now, if only I can trap a squirrel in the car park and put Kairoe to the test! lol. j/k [kind of] :o

    Poor Baby! I did not know peroxide would make them throw up. Good thing to know since our little baby also likes to get into everything! Glad he is feeling better!

    This is really the one thing that Jaycee is good at she will go after her ball a toy anything and play and play. Jaycee seems to have set her bedtime at night at about 9:00 to 9:30. So my son will play throwing her ball or toy what ever she wants getting her really tried before she goes to bed every night. Sometimes she good for 15 mins other times half hour but she has fun. I hope she don't stop this is fun.

    I am so glad I read this. We are having eating problems too but after reading your replies I know this issue is probably stress and hopefully will stop. Our two basenji's (3&4) have always had a pretty structured eating schedule. The boys the 4 yr old and our old elkhound have always ate together since the basenji came to us at 6 mo. The girl eats next. It has worked great for years. Our elkie went to doggy heaven this week, he was 14 and was greatly afflicted with renal and liver failure. The b's don't seem to look for him or miss him till its supper time. Our boy doesn't seem to be able to eat alone without his buddy even though we are with him. I know that a restructure of eating habits is needed and the b's will eat together now and hopefully that should resolve our issues of the moment. And as I have learned owning B's there can be alot of issues of the moment with them
