no, no rain, we have had so much rain the last week or so..I am sick of it..
How did Jaycee's and Eli's debut go? I hope it went well.
-
Well one nice thing and the only one about cold. I always like the first time or two when we have the fireplace so warm and nice love to watch the fire. Then after a time or two that is enough of that.

We've been spoiled here in the SF Bay Area. Mild temps but this Monday-Wednesday part of a tropical storm is rolling through to pound us with 1-3". Today I had to clean the garage, make it dog safe and bring in Buddy's dog house. He's not gonna like that rain.

I'm around the madison area. how about you.

Re: Snow my basenjis hated it - the podengos were amused.
-
I don't think Nemo is looking forward to this again. I'm not either. We might have accumulating snow this week.
-
Those are not happy ears, are they? Poor Nemo.
-
My 2 b's like the snow much more than the rain…they will go out and play, come in and cry cause their feet hurt, and then go out again..
Rain, nope, no playing in that WET! -
our female basenji loves the snow…wnen we get it.
she runs around until she gets cold,then comes in and gets warm and wants to go back out. the male just looks at her likes she crazy!!!!! -
thats about how it goes at are house. as long as they can keep the door open to go in and out as they like. Still haven't goten them to under stand about money going out the door that way.:) We do that alot during the summer. They like to race and chace each other that way.
-
We have a doggie door, and they just fly through that!

Exactly… cures the open doors heat/cold problems.....

We just got one the other day. Cant wait till hubby to put it in. It will be in the screen door but thats better than nothing.
-
Nemo looks cold in that snow makes me cold. Inch of snow is to much and ice is even worse. I kind of can hardly wait to see what Jaycee thinks of snow but then I do not want anymore of it.

I'm in the Sheboygan area, but we have familiy in Madison, so we are in that area a few times a year…maybe we can do a meet up sometime, I've only seen another basenji once before, I would love the chance to meet up with more basenji owners!
Tosca doesn't mind the snow for short periods of time. She will have no problem walking through it, until her paws get too cold. I actually like it in the morning, cause it makes her go out to go to the bathroom much quicker
Last winter we had SUCH big snowpiles with all the record snow, we had fun throwing Tosca into them and watching her run around. It sounds mean, but she had fun with it too...or at least tolerated it w/o complaining -

We just got a few inches of snow this morning. Kananga was not happy to be outside in the morning, but he was distracted for a bit by a friend of his (Boxer that we usually run into in the mornings). His friend has an almost identical coat (brindle/white), so I always joke about Kananga being the miniature version of the Boxer. Hopefully it will still be a mild winter. :o

There was about 1/2-3/4 inch in the yard this morning and it was funny to watch Gossy. When first out the door she was in full running mode but screeched to a stop as soon as she went out on the snowy deck. After I shoved her butt a little (I think she was thinking to just go back inside) she picked her way slowly across the deck and down the steps to get under the trees where there was no snow so she could do her business. She's only been through one winter (she'll be 2 in December) and I don't think she has formed an opinion about it yet as she didn't really seem to mind it much (so far).
