Another weight question

Basenji Talk
  • @Basenjimamma:

    We have a few people in the neighborhood behind ours that have geese as guard birds, and they are very effective and loud..
    What a job..walking around making sure geese don't bother anybody..hmm.

    The geese don't bother anybody, it's the poop messes they make all over the place.

  • Otis has grown a small amount. Very good looking. Food from the kitchen that is also Jaycee. We have all had to learn to put everything way back on the counter and nothing on table. Life is different but good.

  • I just weighed Otis, and this is after he ate breakfast..he now weighs 23.8lbs, and is looking trimmer for sure. His ribs are definitely right under the surface now, as supposed to a little squishy..the no-bacon, no-butter, no-cinnamon roll diet worked..He did however, with some help from our dachshund, Gus, get a hold of one of our roosters, Elmer, and hurt him bad..we had to put poor Elmer down. Now we have reinforced the fence, on the chicken side, so they can't get over and be a treat for the dogs..Boy was he remorseful after that ordeal..or at least that is how he came across.
    Thanks all for helping me with your inputs, much appreciated..

    @saralars: This is off the subject of crate escape… I was told growing up that turkey and chicken bones were very dangerous for dogs. Are Basenjis different in this way too? Or am I missing something... Raw, uncooked bones are fine for any dog, not just Basenjis… it is "cooked" bones that are the problems

    No I haven't and I need to… I have taken some great ones of her lounging in the sunshine. She loves taking in those rays....

    I was surprised by how thick the whiskers were! She was finally a bit sleepy and left the scissors (I tried a small nail scissors this time) so I got the annoying one trimmed, but I was surprised at how the scissors barely got through it! Oh well, its dumb but at least now there isn't this annoying long hair hanging way down off her chin :)

    My husband and I have both been in 9yrs And with bugs,lol, best thing for anywhere: ensure they don't have hiding spots and use flea and tick meds
