Can you tell there's a chill in the air

  • @BasenjiDiva:

    How do they do that!? I'll look over and see Cory sitting straight up, eyes closed, and head periodically nodding a little. It isn't like there isn't room for her to lie down to nap! It cracks me up how basenjis sleep - curled up like a little fox; or head stuck into a crevice in the sofa/chair/pillow as if the light bothers them; or legs stuck rigidly straight out like they've died and rigor mortis has set in.

    When Ruby's head starts to move because she's falling asleep sitting up, I call her "bobble head Ruby" :D.

  • Very cute! What a handsome boy!

  • What adoreable pics. Sleeping standing or sitting up must be a basenji trait. The doggie day care Hollie use to attend told me they often times saw her sleeping standing up. Like a kid I guess who's afraid they'll miss something. :D

  • Jazzy's Mom, your 2 are just so pretty. Your male B is amazing, I have noticed that Bs can and do sleep in the darnest positions. When I bought Sahara from the petstore I was driving home (a hour away) and to my amusement I looked and saw her standing up sleeping. I was like, I have never seen a dog do that, I should have known then that these dogs are different in many ways. I told my hubby that I think Bs are so amazing that they train you to NEVER want another breed of dogs.

    Oh thanks! :D I think so, too, but I may be a bit prejudiced. ;)

    My niece, who has three pit bulls and is a HUGE FAN of that breed, doesn't like the Basenjis because she says they are just not "dog-like" enough for her.
    Makes me laugh because, aren't they MORE REAL dog-like than the man-made dogs? LOL

    Her pits are easily trained; they are all about making her happy.
    Whatever….. :D

  • He looks like he is in total bliss. :)

    Cool! A "famous" relative. :)

    I'd love to see it; I wonder if the photo can be scanned and posted?

  • He is so handsome…especially by the fire...Nala's favorite place. She prefers the traditional sprawled out nap.

  • Lol Too Funny!!!

    Keep in mind, unless you correct them "in the act" they really have no clue that they have done something wrong, or more to the point "what they did wrong"…. shredding is pretty natural to a Basenji

    @AJs: It's just AJ and I. He's great. Only time I've had a problem with him waking me up was when he was sick with the runs for three days. He would whine to wake me up and go outside. Been there, done that. Gotta love those 3 a.m. wake-up calls, especially when its freezing outside.:)

    I had never her of "Best Brace" before. That is really interesting! They seem like the perfect pair! They are beautiful and quite the matched set. Thanks for sharing.
