Embarrassment Basenji style

Basenji Talk
  • Zahra had an all day vet appointment today at Banfield, I dropped her off early this morning and got a phone call at about 12:45 pm that she was ready to be picked up, when was I going to pick her up. I knew what that meant, it means that she was screaming up a storm there. She screams like crazy when seperated from Chase.

    That wasn't the embarrassing part, the part that was embarrassing was that the nicest vet tech brought Zahra out in her arms cuddling her and talking about how sweet she was and then …

    She bends over, holds Zahra out a bit and has a strange look on her face.

    Zahra pee'd on her. All down the front of her and it went into her shoes.

    I wanted to turn invisible. :o

    That's when you say, "She really really likes you, you're the best Vet Tech…..........Ever!:D :D

  • Ohhh, how funny! That poor girl. I'm guessing Zahra was quite proud of herself. ;)

  • Aw! I'm sure it wasn't the first (or the last) time she'd gotten peed on! I'm sure that cudddling and snuggling from Zahra was well worth it! It's not often non-Basenji owners get to snuggle with one!

  • Hey, I'd rather a dog pee on me, than bite me :)

    Me too, been there done that…....not good.

  • that is too funny! I guess she did like the tech.

  • LOL…I am sure the vet tech has had this happen before and probably worse...I can just picture it...

  • that is awesome!!

    Basenji screaming is typical at the vet…Caesar is a champ! "Why confine me when I can run amongst you and enhance your day!"

  • The best part of this is that I had to take Chase to the vet yesterday because he injured his foot this past weekend. I was a little embarrassed to walk in there! LOL!

  • As a former vet assistant, I can safely say that I was peed upon in my first 2 days on the job. A beautiful little soft coated wheaten terrier "initiated" me as I lifted her onto the exam table- lol! I've also had a big (and very nervous) mixed breed empty his anal glands on my pant leg - drool, slobber, and other unpleasant bodily functions were all part of my every day "attire"! :) It's all in a day's work, I assure you! :D

  • This is what dogs do, I wouldn't be embarassed in the least, I am sure they are use to this. It would be worse if you took your kid to the doctor and they peed on them. haha!!!!

    @weedtrek Possibly Basenji mix, nose looks a bit wider and the eyes are less oval. Could well be a Basenji mix though.
  • Basenji or...not?

    @Thana: she does have basenji characteristics then apart from her colours and looks.- i also think she must have some basenji blood! She is lovely and lucky no matter what! adorable little face:))))) Having read about the characteristics I think she does. The lady with the basenji that we met also commented on some of the things she was doing as "very basenji" (eg. standing on her back legs so she could see what was going on). Has a lovely wrinkly forehead too. Got very frustrated with me earlier and did her funny bark, more of a wierd howl really. She is def one of a kind. Its a shame we have to have her spayed (not that I could ever justify letting her have a litter).

    @phoenix3: Looks like a B to me but i think more of a B mix he looks like he has corse hair Maybe be has the size of a cattledog body and a basenji head :) My Aspen is a cattledog/ terrier mix he has the body of a cattledog {the colors} and the height and face of a terrier heres a pic so u can see the colors of the cattledog well one color anyways :D :D phoenix3 - this is Aspen? I'm so amazed at her spots, because my Daisy has spots like Aspens. We know her mother is pure R/W Basenji and she is thought her other half Beagle. One of her other litter mate moms thought Blue Healer (cattledog). But I subscribed to the Beagle. Daisy could be … Cattle Dog I suppose. She's bigger than Duke now at almost 9 months old. I will show her off soon on "Show Off" forum soon.
