What's That Magic Word

    If my wife says the word "Puppies" with the right tone in her voice, they know they are going to get something good.

    Also, the are addicted to Greenies (which unfortunately they can chew in 30 seconds with the new softer composition), so if she says "Greenie Time" or even askes "What Time is IT?" they will immediately run over tot eh place we keep the greenies.

    Also, if we ask "Who's Here?" they will run all around looking for the visitor.

    We have a few of the "usual" words – esp. "cookie" -- but what really gets both B's going -- or should I say coming running from even a different room --
    is if they hear Gypsy's jaw snap, as in "she just got food, what's in it for us".

    Amazing the distance from which they can hear Gypsy get a bite of anything. LOL

    My dog had an adverse reaction to the Heartworm edible I gave her, do you possibly give one? if so is it maybe related to that? I had to switch brands and she still doesnt feel well for 1 to 2 days after I give it, but it is not as bad as the other brand. Her symptoms were changes in consistency and color and frequency of bowel movements, she didnt eat, and didnt want to be bothered. And she ate grass.

    You can find a lot of puppy collars at thrift shops for pretty cheap - would never pay full price for one. I'm getting mine at 14 weeks and was told that 8-12 inches was what was being used - then at 4- 6 months graduate to 10-14 inch collar.

    A lot of research shows that dogs develop male hormone driven behavior well before a year, and that neutering after the behavior will not stop them. But the decrease in hormones will help making training those behaviors far easier, so early or late, you can usually get a bump in decreasing unwanted behaviors. Glad all is well.

    @snorky998: You guys got me laughing as I picture "Elaine" from the 'Friends' TV series when she thinks she's the great dancer, and she really appears to be in some sort of zen spaz attack.:D I think you are thinking of Elaine from Seinfeld…. but that is exactly what I was thinking of

    There's no animal so resourceful as a hungry basenji. They were slighted you know for centuries being last in line at the cooking pot.
