    Basenjis are very catlike in that they groom themselves and they like to be clean and their beds clean. BRAT.com has a lot of excellent information about the breed and their quirks. Be sure to check it out.

    What about putting cotton balls in his ears before going out to the beach or dog park or whatever? I have heard of this being done before and then all you do is pull them out afterwards and dispose of them? Apparently if your dog is a 'head out the window doing 60' type you are supposed to do this because if you don't your dog can do deaf because of the wind noise.

    @sharronhurlbut: Fran, use baby wipes on his feet. I use it on my b's. Sharron - glad to see your reference to baby wipes - I have often wondered if I could use them on my girls when they get their feet and legs nasty at the park - I thought if I could get most of the mess off them it would be easier for them to keep themselves sparkly white - but - then I thought maybe it would be bad for them to lick whatever baby wipes leave on - what do you think?:confused:

    Our little girl came home at 10 weeks and had dirty ears. She then got some redness. On her vet visit they confirmed she had a yeast infection in her ears. Medicine cleared it up, and she's got super shiny ears now.:)
