My dog ate my….

Basenji Talk
  • 4 day old cell phone. :( i wonder what verizon will say when i bring this in?
    and those cute little indentations you see are teeth marks!

    i remember when i met fender mary k said "this has been the least chewing litter i have ever had".

    what a joke!

  • Mine have chewed 2 of my cell phones. Rio is attracted to flashing lights that go off when it rings.

  • maybe if it wouldve been in a leather case this phone chewing would make sense….it is so weird, he never bothered my old one....wonder what it was about this one he liked so much?
    lvoss, what did your phone company say?

  • Do you have the insurance on your phone? I know that I have washed a cell phone, drop one out of my Jeep while driving (it was a Wrangler and the windows were off, it slid off of the dashboard, very slow motion when it happened), my hubby has dropped one in the toilet, etc and we had the insurance and only had to pay $50 to replace it.

    Maybe Fender wants his own phone and that is his way of telling you he would like one that isn't a flip phone so it would be eaiser for him to use. :D

    I unknowingly dropped my phone in a parking lot, drove over it, and didn't realized where I had lost it for two days:eek: I went back, when I realized, and there it was! It actually lasted for another year!

    Oh dear! :D

  • I have insurance on my phone so when I called to request the replacement they asked why. When I told them my dog chewed it, they asked, "Is the dog alright?" and were glad to hear that she was.

  • Aw, c'mon, Ambered, cut him a little slack! He was only trying to call in a pizza order and save you from having to make dinner! He just got a little too…ummmm...enthusiastic! :D

  • Maybe he was trying to call you and invite you over to his party but his paws were still practicing to get the right number. You know, there may have been that wonderful smell of those fingers on that handi - and he just wanted to savor the taste of those things that smell like you…

  • no cellphone eating here, but hes terrified of the beeps my themometor makes…WEIRD

  • About a week after bringing Giz home, my cell phone got some decorative teeth marks, too. Giz had gotten the cordless phone, my cell, our tv remote, our dvd remote, our surround sound remote and our son's remote all down from various areas of the house and had them lined up on the floor like a doggie buffet, just deciding which one to destroy first. Luckily our son caught him and saved everything from certian electronic death. :)

  • Cell Phones, Remotes, Reading Glasses, Remote Car Keys, etc. etc. etc….all tasty treats for a CHEWY B :D :D :D

    Jaycee digs same way but she does somersaults head down over she gos first time neighbor saw it they could not beleive it. I think neighbor came over every day for a week waiting to see it again and Jaycee would do it. Yes I very much second that digging usually will cause the great B-500. Rita Jean

    Very nice work Basenjibratz! They look totally comfortable! And I agree that once the basenjis are used to other dogs, and have a chance to acclimate, often things go quite well. It is that initial interaction that often goes so well! You have done some great work.

    That's right I forgot about goose poop. Also flattened dead dried out birds. Mine also would eat dirt and tan bark. "What the hell was I missing in their diet" I'd ask myself. (-:

    Yes I agree Pat, Fort Funston could get very crowded and dangerous for smaller dogs as packs of bigger dogs playing could cause injury. My 2 Basenjis were very good and stayed pretty close to me and got used to the crowds. The only problem I had there was with this lady who had an older Tri color female Basenji. It would bite my blk/wht, Nika who was 1-1/2 on the butt. A few times of that and I stayed way away from her. The problem is Nika was a very playful girl and never did anything like that. A few times of getting nipped on the butt started her doing it to other dogs and Basenjis. A Basenji would want to play and Nika would chase and give a nip and the the other dog would get mad and a fight would occur. Nobody would ever get hurt thankfully. It was rare that it would happen as I took them there for 9 years, mostly on the weekend without problem. We had a lot of fun and people loved the Basenjis! Ringo, the red/wht was a very entertaining clown when we'd go down to the beach.

    @Vegas: We're all committed to the basenji, because the little tools have a way of capturing our hearts… I think basenji owners are a pretty tight-knit group. The ways basenjis affect our lives are so similar, it's hard to not find something in common with other basenji owners. I think this may be the "same page" Andrea was speaking of!
