Sherwood dogs in the snow

Show Off Your Dog
  • Snow is a rare occurance here in Georgia but last night we got several inches. The dogs weren't sure what to make of it but when they saw someone walking their dog they got excited.

  • I love when your escape artist tries to climb out. This video made me laugh.

  • Excellent! :) I hope we get some snow here!

    I was a bit surprised to get that on video. Luckily he is very obedient when I tell him to get down. I think he is more interested in getting a better view than he is escaping.

  • I thought Cara-dont-let-my-feet-touch-anything-I-will-melt would die, but she actually went out and ran in the snow today as did Arwen. I guess the dryness isn't bothering them as much as the wetter Christmas snow.

  • Wow. I can't believe that Rainie just sort of hops straight up & catches the top of the fence. No running start or anything.

    He doesn't need a running start to jump onto the stove either. :eek: Remember, this is the puppy that I found walking around on top of the washing machine at a very tender age lol. He had climbed up on a crate then bounced up there. This is one of the reasons I was so eager to keep him. He had so much potential as a performance dog. That whole litter was athletic though. They started jumping as little babies.

  • He looked to be thoroughly enjoying himself perched on the fence like that- even if it was for only a second, made me laugh

  • Wow, Rainie has definitely mastered that fence. Perhaps you can take him rock climbing, lol.

  • I also laughed at the fence jump. It was done so naturally… :D

  • All we got this time was ice. 4 inches of it. We can't even get off our doormat! Abbey just peeks out and says Nah, ain't gonna do it.

    I used Wisdom Panel for my assumed Basenji mix. It showed no basenji at all. My boy is 32 lbs and short hair. His DNA says he is 25% American Eskimo 12.5% Boston Terrier 12.5% Chow Chow 12.5% German Shepherd 12.5% Miniature Schnauzer 25% Breed Group-Sporting, Herding, Hound, Terrier. Having owned basenjis all my life I would say my boy has basenji in him by his personality and behavior regardless of what his dna says!!

    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!

    The question about the doggy smell is a good one - basenjis do not smell like dogs. If you stick your face right into their fur the comparison is like sticking your face into a nice clean healthy cat - warm and not really a discernable smell. Except their feet. Their feet smell like Fritos sort of.
  • Where is that dog???
