    @dagodingo - Note that if flying, most airlines have age limits and when I fly American (in cabin) age must be 10wks.

    Jennifer I find a lot but all seems to be quoting one major study showing 21 percent of lab dogs exposed developed tumors http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A.edu+dogs+and+radon

    Cody will actually eat lettuce and will often beg the leftover from my salad. He snarfs down the lettuce carrot peas or whatever else is leftover. Totally freaked out my friend who was keeping him while I was away b/c she was eating a salad and he was begging. When she gave him a piece of lettuce he ate it and begged for more. She actually called me on my cell to make sure it was ok. :) He prefers ranch dressing. Thank you very much!

    Don't feel bad about getting bit…she probably was sorry as soon as she realized what happened. Darting movements can garner such a reaction from any animal (and some humans) when they aren't used to contact. Chasing a Basenji, even when you really need them to come to you (sometimes especially when you need them to come) quickly becomes a game and they will play tirelessly. You could try a training exercise wherein you have really good cookies in your hand and call her just to give her a cookie. It won't take long for her to come to her name if she associates it with something good. Don't give up.

    I think you need to go back to house training 101…. just like if they were pups... and it is an adjustment.... My question is however... what was he like in the foster home? How did they do with house training... or more like what did they do about house training...?
