Maya's First Item of Destruction!


  • We have been very lucky in that we've lost nothing valuable to our Basenjis. While they do both like to chew, both are also pretty good about leaving things alone.
    An ink pen, a couple of kids' toys, a stuffed Santa Claus, a tennis shoe….. nothing that anyone really cared about {well, I WAS upset that my stuffed Mrs. Claus is now a widow,but.....}. A couple of items that may have irritated us at the time, but were really not a big deal.
    We've been fortunate......knock on wood.


  • oooh Maya!

    Ha, ha, ha…too funny! :D:D:D


  • @Maya:

    I did for get my phone actually, that has tiny puppy tooth marks all over the bottom of it (kinda gives away the guilty party :rolleyes: ) cos i went to sleep with it on the bed by accident and Madam must have woken up in the night and found it… 😃

    I'm sure she WASN'T actually trying to chew it…she was probably just making a call and didn't realize that she just needed to put her mouth up to it instead of around it. :D:D

    I actually was thinking last night that our Otis is very mellow, he has yet to destroy anything (!?). I was hoping that means he is a good boy, but now I guess I should just wait, 'cause it is coming? I do have two other nonB dogs so he is very occupied during the day, and I am home too, which might help. We will see

    Kananga was fine for the first 5 months. Now in recent weeks has has started to chew on things. I thought I caught it early enough to prevent it from getting worse, but he's back to chewing on things again.

    I have no idea what provoked it. He was perfect for so long. Now I'm afraid I may have to crate him while I'm gone during the day. I don't want him getting into something that could cause harm to his health.


  • They are all probably teething! And the best things for teething are phones, glasses, purses…well, you get the idea. What excuse can I use for my 11 year old who still takes my wallet out of my purse (dumb human, left it on the table again) and eats it?


  • I think the b chewed on your camera, because she KNEW you needed a new one.
    That is what I think when the b's get my glasses!

    My B is over a year old now. I got him when he was just under 8 months old. He behaved best while he was still a puppy. Seems backwards.

    For some reason I believe he's starting to develop more of a separation anxiety. Which seems odd because he has always been fine before. Nothing changed.
