Whenever we were away for a show, the dogs became bed-dogs. Deedles used to come right under the duvet and snuggle up between my legs. Which was fine until he did want to surface, either for air or because he was too hot. He would sit up, stretch, and wiggle his shoulders until the duvet came right off and fell on the floor at the foot of the bed.

Which left ME cold and needing to get out and recover the duvet. . .

Deedles would lie on top for a while, then burrow under again and repeat the performance.

Don't worry about it !

@zande I know that I’m lucky to have found him! I hope he feels that he lucked out, too. Actually, I don’t care very much what “mix” he is. I had just never heard of basenjis before my Vet mentioned it. He doesn’t have a long tail - it seems to have been clipped. The barking is only when he hears someone approach my apartment door or if someone comes in that he doesn’t know. I’m working on desensitizing him to the latter. He DOES make noises like the dog in the videos below make & he grooms himself quite a bit. He DOES NOT play with toys. Don’t know if that’s breed specific or just Jack! He also isn’t too active; he’d be happy to sit on my lap or with his face in my arm pit all day!
