    Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.

    Oh, I love this! Every description I read makes me more proud to have my B in my life. I hadn't seen that one before. :) Also, that egg… makes me want to try this with Penny, but I'm assuming that one was hardboiled. I'm always looking for more ideas for her. She figured out the laser pointer was a hoax in under 5 minutes.
  • Does your Basenji canter "true"?

    @Knipper: Cricket canters true on left and right lead. Her flying lead changes are stunning! I wish I could get those out of Ryley! Perry does nice flying changes too, and occasionally does a simple change through trot. He is certainly smoother and more consistent than most of my horses, who will throw in a disunited stride or two on occasion! :)

    @etzbseder: Medjai, luckily knows "dog park". While I was getting work done on my house, the worker let Medjai slip by him. The guy was a buddy from the dog park and I just heard through the screen "Medjai" and I knew he got out so I went straight for the car and asked if he wanted to go to the "dog park" and luckily Medjai came to hop right in. It really helps when you don't actually chase after them. Great idea, Etzbseder! Next time (and I just know there will be a next time) my great escaper does her thing, I'll try that - we open the back of the car and yell "up" when we are actually doing the dog park, and they always go straight into the car.
