    So, just to go back to your other post…. did this throwing up start since you have been home from Vacation? And if so, how long has it been?.... this just could all be stress related with you being away and him being in the Kennel... did they say anything about him throwing up?....

    The name of the hotel that Chance stayed at is Wags Hotel. They have 2 locations in California. One in Sacramento and a brand new one in San Francisco. It is amazing. They really make your pet not want to leave. With a swimming pool to help dogs with arthritis and play pens with Astroturf where your dog can romp around with others. They have a few rooms to choose from and they do NOT look like a kennel. No wire cages! They use plexy glass in the front of the cage and cement sides. No smell of dog in the facility whatsoever. They have huge air purifiers in the rooms to eliminate that. I was really impressed when I viewed the facility.
    You can check out the website:

    They even have a cat area where the cat kennels are surrounding a HUGE fish tank where they can watch the fish all day to keep em busy.

    Ok, Ok…I know...sounds very strange but we don't have children and Chance is like our little baby

    We have two kids and the dogs are still our little babies! Shhhh, dont tell them.

    we hire a dog sitter when we go out of town who comes by and lets them out & feeds them. She comes three times a day. We let out dogs have run of 3/4 of the first floor and have never caused any damage. They always act the worse when we are home.

    @tanza:

    We have done that as well. Lately my boyfriend's parents have been keeping them at their house and they must be aloud to sleep in the bed with them. It is a requirement. They don't mind and Dash and Sissy love to go to "grandma's". I like having people stay at the house too. I like having someone to keep an eye on the apartment as well as the dogs. That way their schedule stays the same.

    I am not sure if we have luxury hotels for dogs here?? I will bet your dogs had a blast!

    Check with a specialist about the tumour. Is it definitely contained in the toe? If it's spread I wouldn't have it cut into as I feel that this can set off increased growth. As to having a toe removed, one of my bitches had a toe on her front foot removed because it was badly damaged. The vet said that she would always limp but she was back in the show ring after the operation and not one judge she went under noticed the missing toe! She moved as perfectly as ever.

    sigh Poor little basenjis. :( This makes me all the more happier that I bought from a great breeder (FoPaws) who made sure I knew about the breed and who stressed returning Kipawa for any reason should things not work out (sorry Therese and Kevin, you'll never get him back! :) ). And kudos to Sharron and everyone here who patiently answered all of my questions for almost a year, prior to me getting Kipawa. With FoPaws and all of you, I knew what to expect, and I was able to determine if the antics of a basenji were acceptable for our home. And they are - we laugh at them, and every night when we first get into bed with Kipawa, we thank Therese and Kevin for all the time they put into their breeding program and the training and socialization they worked on to make Kipawa a very special little man.

    indeed, thanks everyone! I'm just so happy I can finally have Bindi time :3 she's been going outside everyday, I catch her as she looks like she's about to, she even goes to the door on her own now and whines a little <3 yay! unlike before she's just go where ever because the other dogs did, she's got bigger dogs to play with now who are way better behaved she's got tones of room, her own toys, and she can just chill if she wants I'm still braking her of going on the couch, she mostly does it when I leave the room to get food or go to the bathroom, same with the bed it's mostly my fault because I left something where she can get it or the cat jumps up to get away from her lol they are so cute together ~Kat

    @jys1011: Cute :) But PLEASE do everyone a favor & find Lil Hussy's owners. She can get killed by car, animal, disease, etc. I agree 100 %. There are several dogs who run the neighborhood and we can't seem to get the owners to understand the dangers. One fellow, not the little JRts owner, actually said that he lets his dog out in the morning and if he doens't come home then it was the dogs fault for getting in the wrong place. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGHGHGHHGHGHH. Sorry, it didn't help. I live in a rural area and the town is small. A lot of folks don't think of dogs a companions or part of the family, they think of them as disposible things for lack of a better word. At the end of hunting season, our local animal control, pitiful though it is, is full of hunting dogs that either slipped their collars or worse, were taken off their collars and run off since they weren't "huntin good". The majority of these dogs are euthanized withing 72 hours which is hard, but better a quiet death than starving to death in the swamps. I think I have figured out the house where this little JRT female lives. From what I can understand, the father works in a town over an hour away, the mom is a flight attendant and is rarely home and their child is kept by the grandmother. This family needs a dog, like I need to gain back the 70 + pounds I lost!!!! Another neighbor who is great with dogs and works hard in the neighborhood to help take in lost dogs and I had a long chat tonight. She called animal control but they told her they couldn't do anything unless they saw the dog off leash or out of its yard. I forgot to mention that my friend is an older woman with a heart condition and takes her small mix breed female for a walk every morning and evening. The little JRT female will come running up and jump on and nip and bite my friends dog and when her dog tries to get away or fight back, my friend gets tangled in the lead and has nearly fallen. She is getting scared to go out with her dog. She said that this morning, when she spoke with a different person at animal control, that fellow told her she was calling the wrong place, that she needed to call the police since she is in town limits. We both shook our heads. I told her that I was tempted to go to the family and see if they wanted to get rid of the JRT and if they did, take her to the Vet Hospital to see if she has had any shots or has been neutered. The only thing stopping me from asking them for her is I have used up a huge chunk of saving on Beeji and I don't know how he would take to another dog in his new home so soon. However, I am planning on talking to them about why they are letting her out and not keeping her in the fenced area they have. I will work on keeping my temper and try to use all my mediation skills. Pray for me and/or send lots of positive energy my way!! Aloha, Cheryl Wordweaver saddened by the ignorance of humans who get dogs because they are cute, or are popular or adorable as puppies but never take care of them, give them training, love or attention. :(
