    Why have the thyroid checked if they bite?
    Bisa who will be 4 yrs old Christmas Day will growl, raise those hairs along her back, and show her teeth; sometimes tho she just 'goes after' whoever/whatever is irking her if they move too fast [ie: the GKs are playing with each and get too close to where she is laying].
    Bisa liked our oldest son's mini beagle when Ginger was alive; got along great BUT she does NOT like the full bred AKC Australian Shepard pup they now have [now 8 mos old and she still goes after it!].
    Bisa also growls and snaps at our grandkids [also see note above]. She has always been like this but it seems to be getting worse, hence my interest in doggie daycare and the suggestion of the thyroid being tested.


  • Looking at doggie daycare
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    We board Bisa at the vets' office we take her to; began going to a new one recently due to being more convenient for me and has been an excellent place for her. Now looking at doggie daycare to socialize Bisa with other dogs/people. Went to a place recently to talk to the owner of it/the kennel/grooming shop she runs but haven't heard back from her after I called the other day. Was to take Bisa next week …


  • Can't help but love me!
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    Bisa LOVES to cuddle underneath a blanket! She will paw the threads out of one to get under it with you! LOL


  • Another basenji slave in western PA
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    I know of a couple in Emlenton who have a Basenji [sadly the oldest passed away recently]. We had a good time swapping 'unique' stories last time I saw them at their business. :p)

    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    What pretty dogs … and LOVE the collars they wear!


  • RE: Where is That Dog?
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    Bisa does that too … LOVES the crook of my legs when I lay on my side!


  • Rescue needs home
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    I wanted to get Roo but I have a couple family members that have been ill and don't want to have to board a newly arrived furry friend. So … we will wait to adopt again.


  • Names…
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    LOL … got a kick out of a lot of these! Such creativity!


  • The Toilet Paper Thief
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    Oh yeah … forgot the one where she will get the food off the counter or table if she can!


  • The Toilet Paper Thief
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    Yes … toilet paper, used kleenix out of the baskets, towels and underwear on the cellar floor near the washer as you sort through your laundry, tries to run with a blanket she wants ... Yep ... Bisa is one of those mischievous ones too! LOL


  • Help me id my new pet
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    Does Toby have any Basenji qualities, like liking toilet paper, barooing, meowing, etc.? We had a JRT / Basenji mix [Sakari] before getting Bisa and Sakari had a lot of the Basenji characteristics like that. That's what made us fall in love with the breed.


  • Hello from Pennsylavania!
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    He is adorable!!! And yes … I think there is the Basenji in him. Give him a huge hug from me! :)

    Yes! a very small world! :)

    Aaaah … Rt. 58 W ... yes a nice relaxing drive along it!

    I go to Franklin a lot ... love the Liberty Street antique shop! Can't think of the name of the restaurant on Liberty Street ... but the spaghetti is sure fantastic! :) Also like the French Creek Cafe.

    Yes, it IS a very beautiful drive along the back roads. I love going either 308 N to the Rt. 8N exit to Franklin as well as 38N to Rockland and up to 322 W to get there too. I'm not much for one to be on heavily traveled roads or interstates but do when I need to.

    Have you been to Foxburg lately? If not, stop in and eat at the pizza shop; tell Georgine and Steve that "Marsha" sent ya! <g>I miss the specialty made hot teas and missed being able to eat breakfast at Divani Chocolates; I'll have to stop in their Franklin shop next time I'm up there.</g>

    We got Bisa from Rugosa Basenji's near Toledo, OH. She is a FANTASTIC person / breeder!


  • Thinking about adding to the family
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    We too want to adopt another Basenji at this time. Bisa, formerly Lucy from Rugosa Basenji's in OH, is now 3 yrs old.

    We have had three dogs [different mixed breeds] before in our home and LOVED it!

    Just be sure you are up to the work involved in having more than one!!!! :)


  • I have dog allergies, but want a Basenji!
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta

    I have to agree with Ivoss. Very good advice given there!
    Altho I have adult-onset chronic asthma as of 1986 [strangely, even tho I can still have attacks, it is getting better under control as I get older!] I have still been able to have dogs since the dx. We have had a couple cats before too but that didn't turn out very good. But this, plus our GKs having allergies/asthma, is the reason we went with the Basenji … less irritants.
    If Bisa is in need of a bath, my asthma can act up some, but it isn't to the point I am having a horrible attack. Never did with any dog we had.

    We live in W PA also, Eau Claire. A small local newspaper / printer office near us … I was surprised when I learned recently the owners had two basenji's; but they just had to put down the older one [due to very bad old age health issues].
    I drive by Jeannette 2x a year on the way to my neurologist's office in Greensburg so I know the whereabouts of the town you live in.


  • Added a few photos of Bisa
    Sanuye_ZontaS Sanuye_Zonta
