Let it snow….

Basenji Talk
  • I saw that there was a string of snow talk going on in the thanksgiving section and thought I'd start one just for snow since it's that time of year. We got our snow here in Colorado as well. Alani is a year but was rescued from a shelter so I'm pretty sure this was the first time she's actually seen it. She was very confused that she wasn't able to smell the ground like she usually does and being picky about where to go potty already….well, it was tough. The whole time we were outside she wanted to sprint around in it but overall doesn't seem to mind it too much.

    Please post pics. Love to see Bs enjoying the snow! We had some snow last year. Having spent almost all of his life in sunny Southern California, Spencer was not impressed. Not one little bit!

    There's something invigorating about cold snow on little basenji toesies! My Abbey loved all the snow we had last winter (unusual for us) but she was terrified of the neighbors' snow man!!

    I agree with Basenji fan, I love our Boomerang tags. Mine are at least 6 years old and still look great. Double sided for more info, they have deep etching and just don't wear out. They have a lifetime guarantee, too. I have a plastic one for me, too, back when I was bike riding a lot, with name, phone number, doc's name and number, etc. Way cheaper than the 'official' human emergency ID tags (I got the red bone shaped plastic for me, stainless steel ones for the dogs)

    I'd leave him out for as long as he wants to be out in the snow - but not without a fence yard. As Tanza said, it only takes one car – or one annoyed neighbor -- to take him out, and he won't be adverse to taking on coyotes, so why risk it? Most people seemed to have huskies or malamutes when I grew up in Alaska and they were seldom indoors. They'd even curl up and go to sleep in the snow, while it was snowing, and remain under a blanket of the stuff!
