Dog Days Of Summer

Show Off Your Dog
  • The heat this summer in Georgia has been unbearable. Dolce has worn a path in the hardwood floors from her constantly going in and out to seek warmth and then back in the AC to cool down. These are the days I kick myself for teaching her to ring the bell to go out and come in because it never stops.

    Here is a quick video of her lounging outside in her favorite spot.

  • That's adorable! She didn't seem to be bothered by the camera at all… She was getting her "beauty nap."

  • Hope she doesn't need a doggy chiropractor when she wakes up!

  • I am always amazed at how they can sleep with their necks draped over something hard like that…but they do it so must feel good. Looks like she has beat the heat, at least for awhile.

    Very cute video - I can sympathize with the bell business - we taught ours to ring a bell as well, and after a while, took the bells down. It got to the point Shaye was ringing it constantly, simply because she wanted to go out - had nothing to do with NEED.:rolleyes:

  • LOVE the pose, with the front legs outstretched! It's amazing what positions basenjis find comfortable. Thanks for sharing.

    I was living in Ghana for a few years and the year before I left had gotten my dog as a puppy from a neighbor. We became so attached, of course, that I couldn't leave him behind. It actually was very easy to bring a dog into the country–only a proof of rabies vaccination was required (surprising since the US has the strictest immigration laws for people!). He has adjusted very well, loves taking walks with a leash (in ghana he would run wild, and follow me around on my bicycle.) He refuses to walk in wet grass, though, which is something I think he shares with basenjis? I didn't post any pictures of how his forehead wrinkles--that's when he looks most like a basenji!

    Fula Nzara of the Congo was sired by Fulaflyaway of the Congo and my dogs are related through him. Queen Juliana was a patron of our club - the Basenji Owners and Breeders Association. It was wonderful to see the pictures, thank you for posting them.
  • Very full day!
