It's A Small World After All

Basenji Talk
  • This weekend I joined Facebook at the urging a friend who said it makes staying in touch much easier. Pretty quickly I started getting friend requests from people I haven't known since high school.

    How is this basenji related you ask? Well, one of my high school friends posted a pic of a chewed spatula that her dog got a hold of. I commented that it was pretty low on the dog destruction scale. She said, "Yeah, I guess I should have expected as much from a Basenji" So I go look at her photo album for a pic of her dog and it is a red and white basenji boy!

    Just thought it was kind of funny to reconnect with a high school friend and find out that we both have the same breed of dog.

  • That is too cool, it is a small world… after all!!!:D

  • That's funny Lisa! I got a puppy inquiry a couple years ago that ended up being someone I went to school with, and we were in scouts together too. lol Not sure if she ever ended up getting a Basenji for sure though. I only had boys and she wanted a girl.

  • Facebook is addicting, but I agree it is a small world!

  • Did you tell your friend about the basenji forum?

  • No but I will.

  • Funny….it IS a small world. I found a new friend, totally unrelated to Basenjis (something else we have in common) through a Basenji friend of facebook...that is one of the THE coolest things about Facebook, IMO. I also found out that my very first grade school crush ended up going to the same University as my nephew...on the opposite coast! Wierd!

    But, yeah..FB is the ultimate time-waster....as if I needed another way to waste time ;)

  • Oh for goodness sake, I tried to find you to friend you…but there are a million women with your name! Will you be my friend? ;) I am listed as Andrea Steedle Walters

    I had nose surgery a few months ago and when I got home I was worried the dogs would be so excited and jump all on me, but it was crazy how mild mannered and dare I say tame/domesticated they were. I swear they knew I was hurt and gave me a day or so of good behavior. They are truly great dogs to own!

    If Malaika is lying down and you tickle her tum, she rolls partialy over or lifts her back leg to give better access :D She also loves you to scratch the back of her head, this makes her frown and her lips stretch into a realy long Crocodile grin. I will have to try and get a pic,lol

    My dogs do this all the time. Well, Lexi does anyway- she's the only one who can fit/balance on the back of the sofa. ;) ha! And she'll tap your head in a heartbeat if there's something you have that she wants! lol
