Soup's On

Basenji Talk
  • Let me guess–did she eat the soup?? Never ever ever turn your back on your soup or your paper towel which is to a basenji just as delicious as soup!!

  • pssst, Bella. Good denial face :)

  • "I didn't didn't do it"! Paper towel too close to the edge is very dangerous.

  • She didn't get a chance to eat the soup. The BANG made by the bowl shattering on the tile floor scared her for a few seconds. Too much broken glass to let her clean up her own mess.

  • Bella looks like butter wouldn't melt :D

  • Bella your so very pretty the mouse in the house must have caused that mess right???

  • How funny..we have the same going on here..on a daily basis..Otis is a big thief..Moses, the podengo, is even worse..

  • Bella is quite the handfull. My previous two B's Alex & Cassi exhibited all the typical Basenji behaviors, but Bella takes things to a whole new level. She definitely gives credence to the theory that Tri's are the most "trying".

    One minute she's sitting quietly on the couch, the next minute she's running off with a doormat or pulling up a piece of carpet.

  • Maverick likes to try and steal the Grease Drip can from the Smoker outback!! NAUGHTY Mav! lol Then he blames it on Aiden!! Geoff will go :WHO spilled the Grease?!" and Maverick looks at Aiden and whines and Aiden goes "MAVY DID IT DAD I SAW" LOL Too cute!!

  • Craigh, I thought I had the only carpet puller/doormat thief in the world! She's a B&W though. She was sound asleep one day and I thought I'd sneak in a shower. Before I got into the shower I heard this hideous yelp. She had got up from her nap, gone into the bedroom and knocked the ironing board over on her head, all in the space of less than a minute!

  • Aries has hardly done anything wrong yet. She didn't even join in Katie's stealing the plastic hangers from the basket and chewing them up today. (oops, usually leave the hangers in the basement, but I was too lazy to bring them down right away).

    I did find a whole carton of Bil Jac Liver treats in her crate, with the carton ripped up and all of the treats eaten. I actually found myself thinking, "oh good, she is getting comfortable here"

    LOL. Bella almost beaned herself during Christmas. She jumped up on the hearth and tried to pull down one of the stockings. It was held up by a very heavy wrought iron stocking holder. I heard it hit the floor and came into find her with the stocking in her mouth. It must have just missed her by an inch or so.

    She had gone for 3 weeks with no interest in the stockings. Don't know why they managed to get her attention that particular day. I sure hope she calms down at least a little bit when she's older. :eek:

    Ladybasenji, where are you in Quebec? Montreal? We have a place in Gatineau (Aylmer sector) and one of my dogs might even be related to yours. You're experiences with your girl remind me so much of my first basenji, about 20 years ago–it gets easier, I swear! Let me know if you'd like help with Lady--they're nothing like labs and will never be "obedient" but there are tricks for training them : D
  • What's your B's neck measure (trying to size a collar)?

    You can find a lot of puppy collars at thrift shops for pretty cheap - would never pay full price for one. I'm getting mine at 14 weeks and was told that 8-12 inches was what was being used - then at 4- 6 months graduate to 10-14 inch collar.

    This is the main problem right now, I suppose. The civil war's in the Republik of Kongo. I have been talking to a owner of Avongara Basenjis, who's daughter has been in Afrika with the last big expedition. And she had the same thoughts than I have: we thought, that if there are some Basenjis left (the ones which have not landed in the cooking pans), they are spread all over the forrest regions. Most of the human inhabitants of this region have left their houses for the next bigger city to find a little security and help there…. it is absolutely horrible, what mus go on there. But similar actions in other parts of Africa (Mali and Burkina Faso are always at the border of war like actions) plus in lots of these areas there are now many refugees from other areas which make the problems not easier for the habitants....http://www.azawakh.com/azawakhfriends/english/index.html Regards, Esther
