LOL Pat. I got into Rotties with the false notion that short hair meant less shedding… Rotties indeed shed only once a year, but it lasts 365 days. I do love the easy care of the basenjis, and may go with a short haired Chow next time I get one.
We have horses in our neighborhood and Otis several times would go up to the fence and sniff hi to this one paint named Annie, until Annie's best friend and pasture mate, Star Buck, came along..a miniature goat..forget it, all Otis wanted to do was play with it, no interest what so ever in the horse anymore. So cute while it lasted though.
