Basenji Talk
  • It's the 1st September and as usual Cooper thinks Winter is upon us !!!!

    Ok it's a little colder, not much mind you, the sun is still shining, but not in the world of Coop !!!! I will not give in to emotional blackmail….............I will not put the heating on...............I won't................don't care what faces you pull............................I won't...............don't start putting the shakes on either.......................Oh for pities sake.......................only for a minute then...................................

    Gold Star for Cooper, the Basenji strikes again !!!!!!!:D:D:D

  • Ha know the feeling:rolleyes: Belle has been giving me that look for the past few days as the temp has dropped a bit but not enough for me to put the heating on yet. She just gets her blanket put over her on the sofa:D

  • Yesterday in Vancouver, BC we had what amounted to a monsoon. I walked a half block at one point and looked like I had been in a long shower - just dripping wet. Our animals at home were most upset with the weather too. Barney (angel child cat) had the saddest look on his face. I opened the door for him and he just stood there, looked outside and then turned to look at me - a look of sadness and utter disgust. But today is better and he is out in the yard, protecting his property. Oh why don't I live in Hawaii?

  • @Kipawa:

    Yesterday in Vancouver, BC we had what amounted to a monsoon.

    It spent most of yesterday raining down here in Washington also. My wife had to chase my two down the steps first thing in the morning for them to go outside.

    They gave me the "Yeah… not going to happen" look when I opened the door for them to go outside for our walk.

    We need a new thread…..What I replaced because of my Basenji, and what it cost:) Kleenex and toilet paper need not be mentioned; everyone starts with an automatic $100.00 debit:D

    Tillo doesn't like the rain as well. We pick him up, and put him on the grass. Than it's ok and he will walk for 5 - 10 minutes. Since monday we bring him to the 'baby'sitter during daytime. She didn't know about the 'picking him up', so he didn't want to go out.. and peed in the house….:eek: ;)

    @YodelDogs: If Chance continues his interest in mounting and sniffing Kiya's "female parts", there could be something else going on. It is not unusual for female pups to get puppy vaginitis. This ailment produces aromas that male dogs mistake for being in season. (People can't smell it.) Left untreated, the male dog will aggravate the female so much that fights can occur. I use an ecchinasea/goldenseal capsule daily, opened and mixed with something "smelly" to hide the bitter taste. The problem is always resolved within one week. I am not a veterinarian though so you should discuss this ailment when you take Kiya to your vet. And Robyn is right, this could be the problem also, however in knowing Chance and seeing his behavior with other dogs, I think much of this is that he is just very inmature for his age and never really learn "proper" play with other dogs… he is not aggressive to other dogs, he is just inappropriate with some of his antics.... Kiya, given the chance will put him in his place... but I would think this house is going to get really loud with Basenji sounds...

    She-Ra goes to the door, then looks over her shoulder at us. Problem is, sometimes she's playing a game with us, where she just wants to see if we'll get up and open the door. We're putting a stop to that by putting her out forcibly if she starts to walk away so she knows if we get up to open the door she's going out. Period.
