Playing outside on the ship


  • On top of our hold (were the transport material is kept in) we have about 60 meters of hatches….

    When we don't sail, the dogs can play on the hatches..
    They learned how to play on them, how they don't slide into the water but keep on top of the hatches..


    Buana looks so small…


    Chasing eachother


    Hailey is doing crazy… hahah


    Watchdog…... very dangerous....


    Taking them inside again :D

    When they're playing on the hatches, sometimes people are walking past our ship and the dogs always run "with" them… Most of the time, people will stop to point at them or to talk to them... and then the dogs reached their goal.... MORE attention..


  • I think when we come and visit you and we are allowed to bring a dog, well it shall be Barry and / or smitthy as I dont think Cy and Jenson are a good idea :rofl: that they, especially barry, will fall in the water immediately when he starts running on the hatches :EEK: he will not like that :D

    hahaha people always think that… but our dogs made their first "time" also!!
    We just dropped them on top and play with them.. noting to worry about...
    (also with Pentah, hailey's sis and with some visitor dogs.. always went great..) And when the fall into the water... yes you have to jump after them! :D


  • @Buana:

    And when the fall into the water… yes you have to jump after them! :D

    I will only do that when Smitthy falls :rolleyes:

    Very cool, looks like they are getting good at keeping their paws gripped..


  • @ibi_n_sane:

    I will only do that when Smitthy falls :rolleyes:

    Kas will jump after Barry.. but he wants to keep him after that… :D

    @Basenjimamma:

    Yes, they really are.. they spread their toes to get more grip.
    It's strange to see that they know what to do to stop!


  • How cool is that to live on the ship! We are jealous - obviously your dogs have great sea legs. Mine would just slip right over the side.


  • Nice pictures and dogs are just beautiful. I would so worry about dog overboard not man overboard. I am sure they have done it enough like old shoe to them. You take the best pictures.

    Sky did not look so very pretty in one of the pictures. Thank you again for great pictures.

  • Wow, that's awesome Buana! The hatches are like a track.

    Good photos. Cairo ran up on a one-eyed black cat yesterday on his evening walk, it must have been a veteran. It run over to us, balled up in the weeds on its back, and prepared for combat. Good thing Basenji reflexes are mongoose-like or my boy would have had a perforated nose.

    Thanks for the replies and ideas as to Sheba's breed. Looks like I have 2 dogs that show their main heritage but both crossed with somthing unknowen. They seem happier now and Bella has stoped her growling also(read in a thread it might be a fear reaction). Only time they get aggresive now is at feeding time. We will still feed them at the same time to eliminate favoritisim from us but Sheba will be on her fly. We have decided to alow Bella to roam the back yard as she always has. She has only got out once with some help. Some more pics… Relaxing inside:) [image: PICT2219.jpg] They never show any sign of aggression when inside but always keep an eye on where the other is. [image: PICT2222.jpg] Bella sleeps on the cusion or couch with out any problims while Sheba sleeps on the carpet in the hall outside the open bedroom doors. Nearly finished the fly run for Sheba, just need to tighten the wire when the concrete sets on the posts. The idea is simmilar to the runs used for cattle dogs,they usualy just pin the wire to the ground and the conecting chain drags on the ground. For ours I lifted the wire up off the ground in an attemp to keep some grass for her to run on. [image: PICT2223.jpg] This gives her about 12.5 x 8 mtrs(40 x 26feet) and far eisier to build than a dig proof caged run. Once we are home we give it about 10 mins and then go say hello to both dogs,at this time Sheba is taken off the run. The old vegitable patch that never grew anything will now be Sheba's digging patch with any luck(Might bury a bone each week for her to find in it).

    @Basenjimamma: Great pictures. I love the one of him in the cat bed, so comfy. Their bed is awesome, where did you get it? I like the fact that it is black, every dog bed here is either tan-ish or plaid or plain ugly… I got it at a German petstore (named Tiergarten), that petstore has a very big choice for dog-beds.. (every colour, figure etc you want, they have ) We first wanted a leather bed, but that was way too expensive.. more than 370 us dollars :eek: Besides, I don't think the B's want to sleep on a leather bed.. that's a bit cold… haha
