Newbie, needs help with a chewer.

Show Off Your Dog
  • 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.

    I agree, I see cattle dog/heeler in there. I really don't see basenji but I really like the picture with that happy,goofy smile…looks like a happy boy to me! Of it helps, I reached my conclusion based on the thickness of the ears (regardless of the fact that they stand), the coat type is thicker and has feathering at the back end which you can see on the "zane2" picture...the muzzle is thicker and bolder than a basenjis which tend to be more refined. Lastly, the body type seems thicker and stockier than the lean that is a basenji. All my opinion but I figure rather than just saying yes or no maybe you'd get more out of knowing the "whys" behind my answer

    @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.

    @Basenjimamma: Great picture.. we just managed to train our four dogs to go to their fancy, huge dogbed right by the couch, so we could have the couch back..I miss snuggling with them, but it is nice to be able to sit.. Once we were thinking about this huge dogbed for our 4 but then we realized this dogbed probably would be used by us instead of B' (typically) :rolleyes::D.

    Thanks to everyone for their opinions. everyone here at work decided that they liked the second one, however everyone is distracted by my striped gloves. They also think that Elsie looks huge in her sweatshirt. I havn't decided what I am going to do yet.. I think I will try shooting again and see what those pictures bring. This is why I started taking them early. It is tough getting a picture of Oakie with her eyes open. We make fun that she is like forest gump. I will post the new pictures after I take them… thanks again. Lynne
