They have taught Aries to bark

Basenji Talk
  • Katie and Petey have taught Aries to bark.

    It was over 2 years before we heard Katie bark. Before that she had a whole repertoire of other sounds, but never barked. Now she barks all the time, and we only hear her other sounds if she is really upset.

    Aries barked yesterday when someone came to the door. I hope Aries doesn't start barking all the time too!

  • My female pup barks too… Mostly at her daddy when they are playing. My older female doesn't like barking from other dogs and she just wants them to shut up... lol

    Kamar barks a little bit too, not much. Just a tiny "AFF!".
  • Should have never taught her the paw trick….

    @Elscodobermann: Tilly does the same trick. Only she smacks poor old Humphrey dobermann on the head repeatedly if he is (in her opinion) closer to the fire than her - and only stops when he moves… Good job she wasnt around to try it with some of my previous dobes - we would have had basenji mince... Maya does that too! Except we dont have the luxury of a nice fire (i miss that! :rolleyes: ) so its usually when someone is sat where she wants to be, or if she has scoffed her chews down too quickly and decided she wants someone elses, that sort of thing. The labradors just give into her but Delilah the pug is very much top dog (noones told Maya that though lol) and has put Maya in her place on more than one occassion! Thank god for Lilah, i'd actually have to TRAIN the basenji if it wasnt for her :eek:

    I was talking to my husband last night about the one short bark that Jack does now. He thinks it is the funniest thing ever, because when he does it, he scares even himself. He looks at us like, "what was that?"

    You can always check to see if the plant is poisonious or not on the ASPCA's website, they have a list of toxic things to dogs and if you are still concerned you can call the animal poison control phone number and speak with a vet on duty (know this from experience with my Fajita vegtable eating Puggle :( ) http://www.aspca.org/site/PageServer?pagename=pro_apcc
