Old dog falls in love

Basenji Talk
  • She keeps doing this tail flicking on him. It seems she can control her tail. She reverse stands next him buts against his body, flicking her tail on him. The tail only goes toward him. It's the weirdest thing. I did not know they had control of their tails like that. Granted she's not going to pick up something with it, but you do not see basenjis doing a lot with them, most of the time.

  • Love the photos of them together, he is a very handsome boy. Like you, I was not fond of the black basenjis. In fact, when Topper was offered to me I hesitated because he was black and white, and I loved the red ones. Within just a few hours I was smitten and thought he was the most elegant, striking basenji ever, he was my suave gentleman. Your girl has great taste!

  • Oh my goodness, I do not know how I didn't see this thread before! (I hit new posts so strange!) What a wonderful LOVE story and pictures. Thank you for sharing and starting my day with such delight! :)

    Oh God, I remember the first time I read this, way back in 1999, when this was a listserv. I printed it off, so I could show it to people. I have it saved and still laugh uncontrollably when I read it! Thank god there are no elk in Iowa. It's hard enough to wrestle a piece of pizza away from my two, let alone a carcass.

    I have had a couple stained glass made, but there is normally a 3-4 month lead time as the artists are already booked up for Xmas this yr. Most of the artists on etsy will be booked this late in the yr, I had two quilts and a needle felt made a couple yrs ago and I placed my order in June in order to guarantee Xmas delivery. If you have a nice photo, there is a company called treasure knits that does wonderful woven afghans out of a photo with about a one week turn around. I have had both afghans and pillows made from photos as xmas gifts from them and they do great work.

    The coloring reminded me of a Finnish Spitz. Jennifer

    Hollie will hide her treats and her dog food. Her favorite hiding place is under MY pillow in the bed. She has tried to hide her entire food bowl by pushing one of her plush toys with her nose in an attempt to get the toy on top of her food bowl. Why doesn't she just use her mouth to pick it up and place it on the bowl? Silly dog!
