Cheap entertainment


  • I stopped at PetsMart last night and, on a whim, I picked up 6 frisbees for the dogs. Nope they won't chase them but they still find them irresistable.

    All 6 dogs checking out the colorful new toys

    Rocky picks out a purple on and uses the "one-paw holding upright" position

    Bindi selects a red one and uses her patented "headstand" technique

    Jozie's pink frisbee does the "splits"

    A couple of hours later, Rocky and Jozie are still sawing away at the frisbees

    As of tonight, I am afraid that there isn't much left of blue and red and with the way Jozie is still working on pink, I think it's lifespan will expire by tomorrow. Orange must not taste very good as it has barely been chewed. Who needs tv when you have Basenjis and a bunch of 99 cent frisbees lol!


  • Did they actually eat the plastic? I am always wondering what happens to the pieces of everything they chew, we can never find any traces.


  • omg, haha those pictures are so hilarious. your dogs are so gorgeous.


  • I can't imagine what it was like when they first saw the frisbees! OMG what a riot. :D

    Makes for "colorful" poop!


  • Yeah, my Nicky is always chewing up plastic toys at home and at the park, but it is easy to identify her poop! Fortunately, she chews it all up into tiny bits and has a hearty digestive system!

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.
