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.

    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
  • You'd think I'd have learned my lesson too!

    @Kona: Shaye's Mom - That's what I was worried about too with getting a second one, but since we got to do a trial run with Keoki I was able to calm my fears. He is so calm and trustworthy, but he is also 6 years old. Yes, I understand Keoki and Kona are doing really well - wish I'd been at West Park the day you went over - unfortunately, Shaye had been spayed the Friday before, so we missed you, and them. We have been talking with a woman who has a 7 year old Jack Russell female - of course we were going to get her dog almost a year ago, before we got Shaye, and it fell through because she changed her mind, so, who knows, but Shaye really really needs another dog, I think - older, more calm.:rolleyes:

    There's no animal so resourceful as a hungry basenji. They were slighted you know for centuries being last in line at the cooking pot.
