I can't get over how much happiness she has brought me. She is ridiculously funny, smart, and affectionate (at least towards me and my roommate, she tends to just want to sniff other people). She is practically all the way potty trained by 11 and a half weeks. I love how curious she is about everything, even if it does mean a lot of cleaning up and keeping a close eye on her. I feel like a proud mom of a baby genius. Hahahaha…I'm sure my friends are going to get sick of me bragging about Dopamine all the time, but I just can't help it.
I love breeds like basenjis that think for themselves and figure things out. The only other dogs I have had were jindos and they are similar in character. My jindo (her name is Sequel, and I guess she is really my parent's dog but I claim her because I found her in the pound and trained her and she is really attached to me) lives with my parents. I wanted a dog that was similar in character but small enough to be under the weight limits that a lot of apartments have on pets. I've always wanted a basenji, and Dopamine is the perfect dog for me.
