    For some reason people always hear Dallas' name & assume he's a she. I didn't realize that Dallas sounded like a female name…hmmm...

    & I actually was asked in Petsmart on Saturday if Dallas was a chihuaua!!!! I had heard the more common mistakes like a fox terrier, jack russell, etc. but a chihuahua?!? Come on people!!!

    I think Dallas is a real boy's name!

    And about the chihuahua.. They really do look like them…:p

    Only about 15 lbs. too big! Dallas could eat a chihuahua…and probably would if I'd let him. LOL

    Haha.. same with Mirtillo…

    We have two Chi's in the neighborhood. They drive me crazy with their barking... So happy that Mirtillo only lets out a yodel now and then :D

  • I have a neutered male and people always mistake him for a female - I assume because they dont see any dangling "monkey brains" ….lol.

    In general, aren't females smaller in frame than males? I have noticed that females are usually smaller. But as mentioned by someone, if ppl arent familiar with the breed they wont know the difference.

    @Janneke: I agree.. and I really like the Abyssinian, which is a cat that needs a lot of attentions and play.. These cats have also similar behaviour to Basenjis :). No wonder when this cat comes from Africa :D. I believe she would gets along with Tillo and wouldn't needs a partnership with another cat ;):).

    @Shaye's: My granddaughter has a one year old son who has just been walking recently - when he is in our home, both my B's back away from him - I do believe it's because of the eye level contact. When Evan is on the floor, neither dog minds sniffing him and being around him, but when he is on his feet, they become wary. At that point, everyone is watching very closely - any sign of the wrong kind of contact, and they would be put into a separate room. So far, so good - but children do sometimes have a different kind of energy that makes dogs nervous, so to be safe if your dog shows aggression, hire a behaviorist, and separate them until they learn. The most likely reason is the way in which they move. It is kind of hurkey-jerky, and unpredictable…dogs don't like that much. And they naturally stare at things that are interesting. Little kids also don't have much sense about when it is okay to reach out towards a dog, and when it isn't. Most adults have grown to be able to read a dog even a little, and if the dog looks nervous, they don't reach out...but kids, nope..they reach out no matter what :) Again, dogs can't predict what they will do, and their typical warnings don't stop a child. I have always said, the trouble with dogs and kids doesn't happen when you bring the baby home...it is when the baby starts walking!
