Oakley-Mirror

    I'll have to get a picture but I have a floor mirror that Oakley just can't get enough of. It has been a week and at first he would inch up to it and growl, slowly he gained more confidence to go up to it and try to get "to the other side"…now he will spend hours in front of it just sitting there staring at himself. He can't pass up a mirror!

    Also, today was his first B500 with me, it came about because of the mirror...apparently today he thought it was funny :rolleyes:

    "I know I've found the breed for me because he totally turns my life upside down and I love it!"

    My son's Sidhe, gets into my makeup chair and then taps my mirror, which lights with finger touch, and sits there and enjoys how very pretty she is.

    :) Clever girl! She should be elevated to supermodel status.

    Isn't the B500 wonderful! After hearing about it for a year, I was anxiously awaiting Kipawa doing it. It was a joy for us experiencing his first one. So glad you enjoyed yours!

    When Liyah was a pup she would see her reflection in our stereo cabinet door. She would yodel to it and bring her toys and play bow, etc. She thought her reflection was a little friend. It was the cutest thing - and she would always try to play with her "friend" when the 2 adults basenjis had enough of her and wouldn't play with her.

    We use ones from Rukka. Not sure if they’re available everywhere but they are they best ones we have tried (others always fell off, especially in deep snow). I think having two Velcro closures on each sock has been key. I also prefer the soft shell ones as our B seems to accept them more and they don’t twist as much as the ones with a hard sole. Here are the ones I am referring to: https://rukkapets.com/paw-wear/thermal-shoes-black

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.

    Spencer had one of his anal glands impacted when he was just under a year old, and ever since, I keep an eye out for swelling, scooting, licking or tail biting. It's usually obvious when he's having issues. Except… I took him to the vet last week because I thought he might have an eye infection. I always have his anals expressed while I'm there and was shocked when the vet tech said he had an infection in one of them. I had seen no signs at all! So now he's on antibiotics for ten days, then back we go for a re-check. Glad to hear Oakley is doing well. He's a handsome boy!
