Rugrat has trained Mom!!

Basenji Talk
  • That little rugrat Cairo has his mommy trained. He hasnt changed with the time change and wakes me up every morning at 5:30am. MOM I GOTTA PEE!!!!

    So I stumble outside with him and back into the kennel to sleep an hour more. It is dark and Caesar is sleeping, why can't Cairo.

    MOM I GOTTA DO THE OTHER THING NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I get up again and take him out. Back into the kennel.

    I am snugged up in the bed all cozy and ready for my 30 more or an hour if I am bad sleep until the alarm goes off.

    MOM I CANT STAY IN THIS KENNEL ANY MORE!!!! COME GET ME OR I WILL WAKE EVERYONE UP!!!

    Cairo and Caesar proceed to snuggle with mom on the couch and sleep! This has happened the past 3 mornings.

    Cairo is such a little punk!

  • But Cairo is SOOO cute, you just can't be mad!!! At least he's waking you up to go potty…. good boy!!!

  • LOL, silly boy. Tiggy stays in bed all night and will sleep in until I do

  • Deke sometimes sleeps through getting the kids off to school. Well he did. now we have the girls. They slept until I got up this am. Then they wake Deke up but thats ok I'm not complaining at least its no 5:30..it's 6:50!!!

  • The absolute worst thing about this time change (aside from the lessened amount of daylight walk time), is that Stormie and Nikki were so used to their dinner being served at 6:30 PM. Now they start pesting me at 5:00 PM for dinner and they put on those, "PLEASE MOM! We're STARVING and wasting away to practically NOTHING" eyes! Ha! Little rugrats is putting it nicely! :D ;)

    If you use a squirt bottle, you will only have to spray the b a few times before they get the message…at least, that works in my house.

    Well.. tonight we had a 30 min. training to practice the weave poles. Tillo did ok. He was more excited than normal when we got out of the car and he had a big ridge when we walked to the field, but we were there 30 min before we started, so he was all calmed down at the beginning of the training :) I asked the trainer what he is going to do with Tillo and the Shar pei and he isn't sure yet.. :confused: This wednesday he will have a look and discuss it with the other trainers. He said that there is always a possibility that Tillo will be in a group with a male he doesn't like… so he doesn't think it's necessary to change the group. I told him I will quit and look for another training if he doesn't change something.. We'll see.. we'll see...

    That is great! I am hoping to get Tupper to go biking with me once all the snow and salt is gone.

    I have been taking Mica to a "rally-1" obedience training at the novice level. This involves doing sit, down, 360/270/turns, left turn, right turn, walk slow, walk normal or fast, weave inbetween cones, and she likes it as a challenge to do things alot of it is at the "heeling" side and than there is front and around the back to the side, too - But I think she will be going to an agility class someday - she likes to balance on and walk for 10-12 feet on logs in the water by the swamp, and also across the dried river beds in the woods, and run through the culvert at the dog park. She has also jumped through a hoop at the dog park. It seems to challenge her. She likes to be kept active. BaMicas mom
