In the words of Oscar Wilde - - It is better to be beautiful than to be good.

  • Our girl Sidhe gets in my make up chair in front of my makeup mirror, which turns on & off with touch. She taps it for the light to come on and then admires herself. Often she will then jump on the dresser to help herself to the kleenx I keep there. And if feeling in a sharing mood she will drop kleenx down to Kell & Rogue. Who aren't quite up to getting on the dresser.

    That should be the motto of every basenji;):D

    She's a beauty alright!

  • She's rightfully admiring her beautiful self. My Gbala is a mirror gazer but also looks behind to make sure it's not somebody else there!!!

    What's a good Basenji? - I don't know those!

  • suki likes to stand on the bed and look at herself in the mirror, too.

    that would be Digital. if you're ever in colorado, i'll introduce you :)

  • My old Isis would gaze at herself in the hall mirror as she walked past, and I caught her more than once lying on the corner of the bed where she could see herself in 2 mirrors…looking back and forth, trying to decide on her 'best side'. She was a funny girl.

  • Our little princess at just barely 3 weeks old was already giving a good, solid B-A-R-O-O ! And letting the world know that she was ready for anything.:)

    Ah well, I doubt he'll be making the trip to England anytime soon. At 14, he doesn't do much travelling. But even when I got him at 10 months, he's never done anything naughty. Well, there was that off course tunnel on an agility trial. I called his name, saw his ear twitch in my direction and ran straight into that tunnel with a big grin on his face. But he's never been distructive with non-dog items. Perhaps I'll hop over the pond one day and bring pics. :)

  • The tunnel used to be a favourite of my Basenjis. One even stopped in the middle and curled round and stayed!!

    I'd love to see pictures. The old ones are rather special aren't they? My oldie, Jewel, never chews non-dog items either and I often call her 'Angel' but actually she's far from that - unless she's sleeping, like now!

    Better that they get a check up at the vets as this doesn't seem to clear up. Might they have licked the bird poop as well as the feed? I know that birds can carry disease. I would haven't have thought suet would cause caused an ongoing problem. Let us know what the vet decides please.

    Two previous males I had did that sort of thing to their stuffed toys. As soon as a new toy showed up, it would instantly be attacked and the stuffing torn out before the night was over.
  • Another beautiful day for a walk

    well it's 50/50…there are good moments when they are playing outside with toys and everything in hunky dory, and then like you said Pat WHAM, Mia or Nike (he might only be 8lbs but geez can he lunge lol) will just loos it. I hope it's getting to know you kind of loose it and it will get better, like tomorrow lol...Actually they are doing better than I expected. Just the sleep thing I doubt will ever get better because Mia gets Tazmaniany around us when we try to move her in her sleep.
