    Poor sweet Pharaoh just can't catch a break (picture attached). Despite
    it all, he is just as sweet as can be! First, as a puppy he ends up
    with a family that doesn't bother to take him to the vet for the most
    basica vaccines or any other veterinary needs.:mad: Then, at the young age of just 8 months, they decide they don't want him anymore and dump him at
    a local shelter. Cherokee County Humane Society took sweet Pharaoh
    into our program on Monday with the hope that finally, he can get his
    life on track. He got neutered and up to date on all vetting. He was
    then diagnosed with luxating patellas!! The hope is that this problem
    can be managed with supplements and not surgery but we haven't even had
    a chance to find out if that will work b/c by Thursday, sweet Pharaoh
    was diagnosed with Parvo. Parvo is costly to treat but this boy has so
    much heart we just couldn't decline treatment, we just knew we had to
    give Pharaoh a chance!! Can you help Pharaoh? Had his first family
    only taken the time to take him to the vet as a puppy, he wouldn't be
    fighting for his life right now........
    Donations to his costly Parvo treatment are needed and appreciated. Any
    amount helps!!
    Donations to his treatment can be called in directly to the vet
    (Allatoona Animal Hospital, 678-445-1111, CCHS Acct #1241), made via
    Paypal or by check. Please please let me know if you can contribute to
    his care at wittle13@yahoo.com

    HAHAHA…CUTE! I need to show this to my vizsla, maybe he'll learn how to cover himself instead of standing next to me whining until I get up and raise the covers for him. Yes, he has me trained well.

    I found this formula in a "household tips" book by a guy named Haley. 1 gallon water 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper 1/4 cup Tabasco sauce mix and spray affected area - i.e. the top of the fence I had a Sheltie next door that used my side yard for a bathroom constantly. Bad enough to have to pick up after my own dog before grass-cutting let alone the neighbor's too. A different neighbor told me that the Sheltie had been trained to do that B4 I bought the house. Anyway, it worked great!! I just used a regular watering can to put it down rather than buy a sprayer. It didn't effect the grass at all and, according to the book, should work on a multitude of "lawn loiterers". 666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666 Sorry, Arleigh just decided he'd put in his "2 cents" but I guess he's adjusting for inflation!! Should've hit "submit" B4 I put the keyboard down, it's a cordless and we're sitting on the couch together!!:D

    Good to know about the Vizslas.. really lovely dogs - I met one at my Vet office the other day and he was a truly stunning dog. The owner told me they are super up for hiking which was a major plus. Gotta love our dogs who keep our toes jumping, heheh! Looove the Shiba-Inu story! I have been wary of the Shibas cause I have met more than a handful - and none of them turned out to be very nice with ppl out side of "their ppl". I was afraid they might be too sensitive for my lifestyle, but they are soooooo pretty!! With those coats! –if you make it over you can bring your BW =) heheh! This is just a random side comment - but in looking at a bunch of different breeders, I'm surprised that so many of them don't describe their dogs temperaments/behaviors etc. They talk about their breeding programs but not much about the dogs - seems like every real Basenji breeder's site has a page devoted to 'WARNING!' curious owners to be.. heheh! although I read this on a Husky breeders site and I had to laugh: "Left unattended for long periods of time can lead them to seeking something to take the place of that lack of attention. They may even tear something up." rephrased in Basenji terms: Left unattended for long or short periods of time will lead them to seeking something to take the place of that lack of attention..They will utterly destroy a variety of objects in your house, this is to be expected. Deal.
