  • my B is a big fat wimp!

    woke up this morning to torrential rain. Tucker casually hauled his lazy toosh outa bed, hauled himself downstairs, and when I asked him to go out and do his business, well, that's when he nearly had a nervous breakdown…. backing away from the door... "no, no, no!!!!" I remind him that this is not optional, he has to be brave and go outside. so he goes, reluctantly. he then stands just outside the door. I gently scoot him down the 3 steps to the yard... where he stands looking at me w/ the most horrible look on his face! Fine. whatever. just go pee!!!

    I leave to go check the baby (who's throwing breakfast around the kitchen) when i hear horrendous barking and crying. I swear, you'd of thought this dog was being burned alive by acid rain the way he was carrying on. Jeeez, it's a bit of rain... I let the Drama-king in, he shoots me a dirty look, shakes off a few rain drops, and heads back to bed, where he proceeds to lick his butt on my comforter. I swear, it was payback.

  • What a story!

    Too funny - glad you shared your morning here. :D :D :D Senji's don't need words, do they!!

  • My feeling is that b's will only go in the rain, IF Your out there, holding an umbrella over the b…having the rain run down YOUR neck...oh, and its usually about 3am in the morning...
    So, you finally get the b to pee or poo, you get in the house, try to drive off your pj's...
    and find a wet basenji warming himself under your covers in your bed.
    Yes, I am my dogs slave!
    Oh, I live in the PNW...this happens often!
    SIGH!

  • well now Blaze is in trouble. I can no longer hold the umbrella over him as he goes potty… he ate it last week...

  • Indi will go, FAST but in the morning he then runs in, dives underneath the covers, and warms his feet on Turin, some days I am glad to be the first one up

  • Lol, they are major heat slugs when it cold/wet aren't they!?

    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.

    This is the main problem right now, I suppose. The civil war's in the Republik of Kongo. I have been talking to a owner of Avongara Basenjis, who's daughter has been in Afrika with the last big expedition. And she had the same thoughts than I have: we thought, that if there are some Basenjis left (the ones which have not landed in the cooking pans), they are spread all over the forrest regions. Most of the human inhabitants of this region have left their houses for the next bigger city to find a little security and help there…. it is absolutely horrible, what mus go on there. But similar actions in other parts of Africa (Mali and Burkina Faso are always at the border of war like actions) plus in lots of these areas there are now many refugees from other areas which make the problems not easier for the habitants....http://www.azawakh.com/azawakhfriends/english/index.html Regards, Esther

    Jayden is super gross when it comes to what he'll eat: poop, vomit, and, if he pees on the patio, he'll lick that. Honest!!! We feed him and we feed him very well! Yucccchhhhh! Pat
