Made it through the Dinner, but… *PICS Added*

Basenji Talk
  • LMAO the cake didn't.

    Tiggy didn't once put feet on the table with all the food. And was a perfect while everyone ate. He even spit out the turkey leg (whole leg) I knocked on the floor as I tried to pull the meat off to put it away.

    Then we cleared the table and set out the cake and pies. Didn't touch it until my husband went to cut it but forgot to grab something from the kitchen came back right as Tiggy was taking a bite out of the cake. I'll have to get a pick, Dave tried to get him to spit out out because it is a red velvet cake, but nope it was down the hatch, lol, it wasn't a big bite and it was more frosting so I'm not worried about it hurting him.

    It cracks me up, ignored it all but the cake.

  • Here's the pictures

    I rotated one so you could see it how it looked before Dave decided he'd eat that piece any way

  • Hee, hee…..

  • I've seen, but never tasted, red velvet cake. Looks like everyone got a chance to enjoy it, despite Tiggy!

    Magnum was unbelievably well behaved during our Thanksgiving. Even my DH commented on it. I didn't even have to kennel him during dinner. I was so proud of him!

    Hello Chealsie508, First off, very lovely pics. I am no basenji expert, but have come to the realization that Bs can at times be a bit disobedient as far as listening to commands go. Me and my B are currently in obedience class and she is towards the bottom of the class (during class…but much better at home)! I would try and redirect Oakley when he wants to nip with giving him an appropriate toy for that activity...be consistent. Hormones could be a factor and I agree he is in his terrible 2s and testing you and your limits, perhaps trying to be the dominant pack leader. He may just be playing and doesn't realize he is hurting you...pull away and say OWWW real loud every time. With licking the tops of soda cans, I am a little lost there since I have not witnessed such behavior or at least not with such focus...I know it sounds easy but also try and redirect the activity with something else Oakley may like...when he goes for the can tell him to sit, praise him "good sit" and treat, then walk away. Hope you find this helpful.

    @Kingsley1230: Thanks for all the input guys! I will definitely get Lilu trained before I bring in a new B. But in the mean time I will be looking for a place to adopt an adult B, I heard eldorado is great. Is this correct? I have 2 Eldorado basenjis and also their male that they imported from Finland. 2 I adopted as adult show dogs retirees. I couldn't be happier with my basenjis. They have wonderful termperaments and Eldorado is big on health testing. The sisters are super helpful and always willing to answer my silly questions. :D

    @ibi_n_sane: 2 B-s are better then one :d yes, also a lot more work, as they can take over nasty tricks from each other, but on the other hand they play with each other and make themselves more tired, it is a joy to see 2 basenjis playing and enjoying each other, just beware that what 1 can do, 2 can do better and quicker and faster, and then I am talking about the mischievious stuff ;) whahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahahahahahahha you are killing me here Kim :D He is!!! :cool: Just when he's near that Tri-thing of you…. :mad: hahahaha

    my thanks to all of you for your wonderful advice - i will take everything that you all have said into consideration before making a decision - however my wife and i have decided that our grieving over the loss of our 4 year old is not over yet so we are going to delay any decision until we can get past this point - with that in mind, and realizing how difficult these discussions have been for me, i am going to unsubscribe myself from this site until such time as we can come to better terms with our situation - again, my thanks to all of you for trying to help - Manny
