  • I just spend $40 at the shoe repair shop for Lou's hubbys shoes. Seems like he doesn't want to put them in the closet, which is ok with Wheat.

  • be careful what you give him as she may swallow pieces of it!!'. I find that when he gets his bones, ( I give Ayo raw beef bones, marrow bones or any other bones ) he loves them and sometimes he'll eat them up right away, but some, especially the marrow bones, he'll eat the marrow inside and then the bone lasts for months and he chews them constantly, never paid attention to toys.

    By the way… What is "Spanglish mode"??

  • Sharron - I'm just waiting to be able to get to the shops to buy new overalls, coat and shirt for my husband! In all the years he's lived with Basenjis he still forgets to put his workday clothes (smelling of sheep) out of their way!! What can you do?

  • I think maybe he just wanted some new clothes!! ;)

  • I've stopped giving my dogs bones after my JRT had a slab frature that abcessed. She loved bones.
    Spanglish is from a movie with Ben Stiller in it. They warned the new maid never to through the ball because their retriever would continue to bring the ball back until her(the maids) arm fell off.

    @QuizBasenji: Ah, remove from breeding makes sense (I suppose..) Butu was an accidental breeding, and was sold as such. He had the loveliest brindle sister. He will be spayed in the next couple of months (the vet wants to wait until he's a bit bigger…) As far as I can measure...(chewing the tape...) he is 13" at the moment - do Bs put on a growth spurt, and, if so - how old? Hi, both our breeders advised us to wait untill the Dogs were at least over a year old before neuter/spaying.

    Jennifer; Thank you for the reply. Exercise is not an issue as noted above. My 15 yr old runs 5 to 6 miles a day and the younger ones do about 3. We also walk a lot as it is a small town and the neighbors, most of whom are elderly, really enjoy dogs that don't yap at them. LOL Rick

    Gossy would say - there are never enough toys! At a pinch even a piece of paper will do.
