@elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch.
If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !
I recently "married" a Basenji!

"Enchanting", yes, excellent decription. They just get in your heart and you're done. Despite of, or because of, their quirks/behaviors we just love them.

Great pictures Sadie, thanks for sharing. Haley is adorable..
on a side note, Otis will cross his paws too and he loves to lay down on the edge of the bed/couch like that with paws hanging over the edge.. -
What cute pics!!! Looks like you two are forming quite the pack.
-
Welcome to the forum Sadie, thanks for sharing those pics, the wedding one is lovely with all your boys
Love the Halloween pic of Haley, she's so pretty. -
Thanks, Shelley! Got the little girl dress at Goodwill Thrift Store for CHEAP and 'fixed' it!
When the trick-or-treaters came to the door on Halloween, I'd hold a dog treat up in the air and Haley would "dance" for them. It was so fun! -
Haley is so pretty and pictures are great. I like your wedding picture very nice handsome bunch of boy's.

Ahh!!! I LOVE HER!! She is SOOOO cute!!
You said she was 8, right?? That's about the same age as my little princess, Lexi– who also likes to dress up. I wonder if they are long lost sisters!! Where is yours from? -
She's from here in Arizona…...born 12/6/2000. Isn't it funny how they don't mind being dressed up? My 2 sons, who are now in their 20's, are darn glad I have someone else to dress up these days! And they wouldn't mind it if I made her take dance lessons, too!!!! ha ha ha ha ..........(I only made the oldest take dance lessons.....and it was when he was very young and only until he broke it to me that he'd rather take wrestling!!!) ANYWAY, Lexi and Haley probably ARE related somewhere up the line! They are both awfully beautiful..........if we do say so ourselves!!

Thank you, Rita Jean! (our family is a bit heavy on the testosterone side! haha)
-
Oh and thanks to all of you for your nice comments. This is such a nice place to "visit"!
-
I can't believe Haley's from Arizona. I could swear she and Lexi must be kin!
They seem so much alike in their mannerisms! And I LOVE that she gets dressed up too!! More pics, more pics!! -
Aww, such cute pictures and what a lovely family! Looks like you and Haley are quite the team already.
Hey, I have one of those paw crossers too. lol
-
I like the crossed legs we also have one of those. They must be saying there pray before they do there next thing what ever it maybe. So very pretty against that dark bown.

I never thought of that, Rita Jean! They SHOULD be saying some prayers! lol

That's a good word for them. And yes, Roxie was certainly haming it up for the crowd that day. lol

Sadie just I cannot tell yet what Jaycee will do next I may never be able to tell I may be the one with crossed arms I am going to pass on the leg part.
