reminds me of my trip to Petsmart. I used to breed and keep zebra finches. These little birds are so easy to tell the difference between male and female. I was in the market for a new female, ended up with another male and major fights in the cage between 2 males. Idiots. They kept telling me no that's a female, when he had all the markings of a male and i actually do know the difference seems as i had been at this for 9 years!! (and he worked at the store how long?? 2 months and is supposed to be a know it all?!) I ended up taking the bird back 2 hours later and exchanging for a female. This time i was the one that picked her and caught her out of the cage. Yeah these petstore employees just think they know it all just case they have a job at a petstore.

Hello, My name is Gina, and I am new to this site. I was just looking for new friends to chat with about our basenji's. My family rescued one from a rescue shelter in York NE a year ago, and she has been the best dog for me. I could'nt have custom ordered a dog more perfect than my sally. Unfortunatly i am having issues trying to upload a photo of her to this site, but hopefully soon you'll be able to see her precious face on here! My husband also has a AKC lab named Mason. I love how calm and laid back Sally is unless she sees a critter outside. I love to hear her talk, and she is soooo curious! She makes so much noise while playing with Mason she sounds so mean but she is just all noise. She has been dog aggressive with strange dogs, so i feel lucky she is soo godd with Mason. She is WONDERFUL with my 2 soon to be 3 year old son Owen. :p She let's him climb all over her, she's always giving him kisses and wanting to sit by him. She has caught numerous critters in the backyard and brought them to the back door for me to find…:eek: and she amazes me with how quiet, and how she stalks like a cat, she licks herself like a cat, and can squeeze into the smallest spaces! I think she is a cat in dog's clothing.
My other hobbies are: photography, sewing, reading, muscle cars, movies, music, dog grooming/training, dog walking, shopping, playing with Owen my son, and spending time with family.
