Smitty thinks he's Peter Pan

Basenji Talk
  • Not sure if this should go under "Agility" or "Other Sports". Here is a new one…

    We had a warm stretch a month ago and I had the screens out of the windows to clean them. While Bonnie and Smitty were playing, Smitty thought it was pretty fun to jump in and out of the house into our back yard rather than go though the open door. Pretty funny... funny then. Well, the other day I'm sitting in my second floor office and Smitty runs up and BONK slams right into the window! Fortunately it was closed and the screen was in, but now I have a new problem on my hands come warm weather time! I had to put a vase on the window ledge so he knows there's an obstruction there. Anyone else every have this happen? I don't really want to put bars on the windows.

  • No that's a new one for me:D :D :D. This is a job for Super Senji!

    I'd get Smitty a little cape.:eek: :eek: That's hilarious.:)

  • I was thinking putting a trampoline below each window might help too!

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D

    You can find a lot of puppy collars at thrift shops for pretty cheap - would never pay full price for one. I'm getting mine at 14 weeks and was told that 8-12 inches was what was being used - then at 4- 6 months graduate to 10-14 inch collar.
  • It's been a long time since I've been here.

    Isis is darling! By all means do a 'well baby' visit with your vet, and order the DNA swab for fanconi, huge peace of mind. I had a wonderful Isis many years ago, I love the name!

    I think everyone who decides to have these little furbabies has to make a conscious decison that housekeeping is going to fall by the wayside in some areas. . . for instance it's not real easy to keep carpets nice and clean when they drag their treats and bones all over it! We just vacuum and count on getting in a professional cleaner a couple of times a year. Other than that, our friends just have to understand - we have a Basenji!
