The dog's a nut case

    @AJs:

    We've been in this motel room for about a week and a half. We've been in motels before and I have never seen this dog do the following:

    He licks the bedspread.

    At first, I thought "Eeewwww" like some of you are, but he's not going back to the same spot. Where ever he happens to be lying or sitting, he starts to lick the bedspread and will sometimes continue until I stop him. So I believe my dog is a little loopy.

    Anyone know a good psychiatrist who speaks Basenji?

    Check the bed spread with a black light, there is probably disgusting human residue on it. The grosser it is the more they love it.

    I had nose surgery a few months ago and when I got home I was worried the dogs would be so excited and jump all on me, but it was crazy how mild mannered and dare I say tame/domesticated they were. I swear they knew I was hurt and gave me a day or so of good behavior. They are truly great dogs to own!

    I really believe this helps. Uzie does have separation anxiety and just about 10 min before I leave, I put on a station from Directv that has easy listening. I enjoy it when I am home and do notice that all three of my pups do seem to settle down on their beds and enjoy it! I thank you for posting the link, my girlfriend needs this for her aging Silky who gets so worked up during a storm that he defecates all through the house…..

    I agree with Basenji fan, I love our Boomerang tags. Mine are at least 6 years old and still look great. Double sided for more info, they have deep etching and just don't wear out. They have a lifetime guarantee, too. I have a plastic one for me, too, back when I was bike riding a lot, with name, phone number, doc's name and number, etc. Way cheaper than the 'official' human emergency ID tags (I got the red bone shaped plastic for me, stainless steel ones for the dogs)

    QUOTE=LeeL: I have noticed that it is a lot easier to accidentally train a Basenji than on purpose. ;) And not necessarily something you WANT them to learn!

    Does he know sit or down? If not, should teach him… and then when your daughter comes out of her room, she should immediately have him sit.. (would help at first if she has treats for him)... then she can reward him for doing a behavior that is acceptable... I was thinking the same thing. This is how I got caesar to stop jumping up on people at the door when he would try to greet them.
