Does your basenji like tea bags?

Basenji Talk
  • Stormie has a really bizarre "thing" - it's almost a compulsion, actually. :rolleyes: When I brew up a cup of tea, he loves to roll all over the tea bag. I mean he smooshes his head into it, and just rolls away! The only thing he'd rather roll on is deer poo (but that a whole other thread! lol!). Mint seems to be his favorite, but any herbal tea will do in a pinch. Has anyone else noticed this from their b, or is Stormie as bizarre as I think he is? ;)

  • I've never given Jazz a tea bag, but it wouldn't surprise me if she did roll on it.

    Her favorite things to roll on are my husband's leather work boots – and his socked feet after the boots are removed -- at the end of a long work day.
    ew.

  • LOL Jazzy'sMom! So I guess I should be thankful that Stormie hasn't displayed a "foot fetish"?! ;)

    But yet they always smell so good............strange.:D :D :D

    Last I heard, the Breed Club secretaries had more people waiting or wanting pups than were available . You could get on a list for a Basenji next winter but I very much doubt you will find one still unsold. Go to the website of the BCGB, or the Northern Basenji Society as you are in the North and you will find email addresses of the secretaries. They will put you in touch with breeders who may be planning a litter for puppies to become ready to leave the nest in about a year's time. Its a long wait I know, but you have most probably missed the boat for now. You are welcome to post me privately. Good luck!

    That would be OJ when he was young…. at his age now, he really doesn't have the teeth for it any more... but he was the king of tags rippers... and he was the only one, the girls had no interest at all...

    Thanks, Jodie. I don't think Mags gives a rip about the song ("Just rub and scratch, no singing necessary, PLEASE!"), but it makes me feel happy!
