Very cool dog toy

Off Topic
  • Today I was restocking Kipawa's food. Of course when I am in the pet store I always look for collars, treats and toys.

    Here is a toy Kipawa is totally enjoying as I am typing. It's very hard plastic (real hard) that you put treats into (similar to a Kong). He had been sitting with my husband, but then rushed over to me to show me that he was on the verge of getting one of the treats out. There are a few different sizes. I bought the 3 inch because it can be held between the two front paws. I just thought that since he is totally loving it that some other basenjis might as well.

    I also saw what is supposed to be a super tough, teddy bear like toy. Many different animals to choose from. I thought the raccoon was kind of cool. But it was more expensive - $21.99. I hummed and hawed about it. They claim that it is made of many indestructible 'layers'. I guess since I know Kipawa, I decided against it. I still felt it might be only good for a day or so. Next time when I am in the store I'll write down the name so I can research it on the web first.

    The golden I used to have did similar things w/her ears/eyes when I approached w/a leash. It was a habit formed from years of me sliding a new collar on with the leash attached. She'd squint and pull her ears back in anticipation of the collar being slid over her head. The smile? I never got that.

    @AJs: See, Dan? First you tick everybody off, now you make everybody cry. But you're still not getting off the hook that easy. You will NOT be banned and in fact will be required to stay. :D What?! That's it I'm going back to my stupid jokes!

    I so wish this article would make it on the list of news worthy items to talk about on the news circuit through out the country..at least if it is seen by the millions throughout…maybe we can keep a few elderly dogs out of the shelters and off the streets.. Thank you so much for posting AgileBasenji..it touched me lots.. My two elderly dogs passed away in march and then again exactly one month later to the day..in april..very hard for me and my hubby, but also for our kids..these two dogs had been in our lives since we were dating and they were there when we brought Sofia and Lukas home from the hospital...through illness, happiness and age we have loved, laughed and hugged these two boys...we miss them so much..

    I saw this show for the first time last night. I didn't think it was sad, because the nice doggy gets adopted into a home where the people have been evaluated and dog is placed with people who are best suited for the individual dog. It's like a reality game and they all know only one home gets the dog. The people know they might not get that dog. But I'm glad that the people who don't win on the show, will probably adopt and rescue another well deserving dog. Just my take . . . but I only saw the one show.

    That is a happy ending! My SIL's boxer ran out the door one Christmas morning at the other SIL's house. We all watched in horror as she dashed into the street and ran INTO an car. She bounced off the passenger door, and seemed completely unphased!
