Ah!!! Paper Shredding

Basenji Talk
  • So about two months ago my husband woke up to find that the puppies had dug out of our backyard. He rushed outside and was wondering where to look for them when he saw shredded toilet paper on one of our neighbors lawns. They had gotten out while we were asleep and raided the neighbors trash only extracting the toilet paper and shredding it in the typical basenji fashion. Luckily we live in a fairly nice small town and someone had brought them to the animal shelter about 5 minutes away and when we called they were already there that day. At the moment it was far from funny, but now that they seem to have ceased their digging ways it really is quite funny how they were enjoying the forbidden.

  • OMG!! How scary :D…I guess they went on a TP raid!! LOL

  • You could say that. =)

    Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.

    We use ones from Rukka. Not sure if they’re available everywhere but they are they best ones we have tried (others always fell off, especially in deep snow). I think having two Velcro closures on each sock has been key. I also prefer the soft shell ones as our B seems to accept them more and they don’t twist as much as the ones with a hard sole. Here are the ones I am referring to: https://rukkapets.com/paw-wear/thermal-shoes-black

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.
