Jet-isms

    If Jet the try-ing is on the sofa (or bed) other dogs are NOT allowed to hop up on the sofa with him (although it is plenty big enough for 2 or even 3 basenjis). However, if another basenji is on the sofa, it is okay for Jet the try-ing to hop up there because that is a completely different scenario.

    LOL I have exactly the same scenario with Nakura. If she is on the sofa then it is HERS and no way is anyone else allowed up there. But, if someone else is already on the sofa and SHE wants on, then that's fine :)

    Incidentally, she is 7 years old today. I told her that just because she is getting older, doesn't mean she can get grumpier too :D

    Yup, I have one of those - Ruby will not let Brando up on the sofa or chair if she is there by herself. If I'm also on the sofa or chair though, she wouldn't dream of not allowing him up - she is smart that way.

    Completely the opposite if Brando is on the couch or chairs - she makes herself at home. Luckily, Brando doesn't care - just loves the company.

    Hi @Vesna, it’s interesting you say that about the spay. Our tri-color actually just got spayed this week and her coat shed before that. I noticed small amount of black hair growing in where she shed, hopefully it grows back. What phase is your tri-color at? Did this just happen?

    I can't listen to that, it would wake my girl up and well... I'm not into a "sing along" just now. ;) I will say that many canines howl and yodel and bay (at the moon, whenever a fire truck passes, etc.). I'm not certain that any one breed is distinctive enough to have a sound all their own, but many a proud owner would probably assert so.

    We use ones from Rukka. Not sure if they’re available everywhere but they are they best ones we have tried (others always fell off, especially in deep snow). I think having two Velcro closures on each sock has been key. I also prefer the soft shell ones as our B seems to accept them more and they don’t twist as much as the ones with a hard sole. Here are the ones I am referring to: https://rukkapets.com/paw-wear/thermal-shoes-black

    Jet was lucky, to have a friend like you. Max is carrying on the spring- chicken thing at 26pd 3 years, Jet would be proud. Sorry for your lost…
