Good Chewing

Basenji Talk
  • MacPackM

    I indulged by stopping on the way home from the park for some cooked to order Publix 'hot and spicy wings' and beer, and saw a package (not made in China) of long rawhide rolls, 2 big ones, on the 1/2 price rack. These suckers are about 12 inches long and 1 1/2 or 2 inches diameter. Now, I am not a fan of rawhide chunks, I have pulled big ones out of Topper's throat, but my guys have gotten very jaded and have bully sticks lying all over so I thought I'd see if these fired them up.

    Safe to say they like them as they have not stopped chewing on them for over an hour! Nicky actually had to stop and pant as she was chewing so vigorously. Eddie is starting to get his unrolled, not a good thing, and taking these away from them may be dangerous! ;-). Not bad for $3.50!

    Good chewing on a hot afternoon!

    @Basenjimamma: Basil boy..I am trying to understand what type of harness you are talking about. I have or maybe had (lost two leashes at the dogpark a few weeks ago, when son thought it fitting to fish with one and loose it, fish the first one out with the second one and loose it too..! )..any way..I have/had a leash that had a big metal loop by the collar that you threaded the leash after wrapping it around the body of the dog, so in essence it was a leash that could be used as a harness..is that what you are talking about? I think so… but my sister has never used it as a leash and it's not one straight long rope it's two long parallel ropes when it's all undone... But maybe this would serve as the same thing?

    :D Wizard your mention of Gossy hiding food made me laugh. We lost Benji in Feb and the other day i was cleaning behind the cushions on the leather settee, and yes i dont do it very often :D Theres more to life than doing that :D Anyway i found ?4.31, a lighter, a mobile phone and loads and loads od dog biscuits that Benji had hid, it was a bitter sweet moment. He also once hid a smelly old bone under my husbands pillow :D

    OMG….this film was the catalyst that started my daughter on her quest for a Basenji. For years and years I had to endure the Walter Brennan character saying, 'She's got birds. SHE'S GOT BIRDS'. I think that's why we finally caved and got our first B. We never wanted to see that movie again!!! In hind sight, the cheezy movie was MUCH easier to take than a Basenji pup. I'm looking for the book on line---just for my collection of B. ephemera.

    my dog loves Bully Sticks. I usually buy the ones made by Red Barn. Here's a link: http://www.redbarninc.com/c-11-bully-sticks.aspx I only buy the 12" or larger variety. As soon as the stick is chewed down to about 3", I throw it out. another long lasting one is a filled hoof, by the same company. http://www.redbarninc.com/c-23-filled-hooves.aspx warning - these stink!!!
