Dog Park = exhaustion

[nobarkus]

Nice big dog park! The way Gizmo is dozing off it's a good thing he isn't driving. (-:
At the end he says "I'm not sleeping I'm just resting my eye lids".

Yep, that's one happy puppy. There's one thing I can't figure out. Is that a fan or a heater?

It's a fan heater, or is it called heater fan? Here in norway they are called "Vifteovn", so directly translated its fan heater. Just a fan with a heated element inside, so it blows out the heat.

Sounds like a ceramic heater (heating element inside with a fan distributing the heat).

I need to get one for my B. I think he'd thoroughly enjoy it. :D

I am sure he would. Gizmo lives in front of that thing ever since I bought it. And if it's not on, he will lay there and poke/claw at it. :p
The humming sound of the fan is almost therapeutic, he seems very relaxed with it on.

If you have a hair dryer try that on your Basenjis, keeping it moving of course so as not to burn them. My last Basenji used to love it when i was drying my hair and gave him a turn with it. Wish i'd filmed him

Mine runs from the hair dryer. I've tried to use it after bathing him a few times (used the lowest setting too) and he went for the nearest corner. I didn't want to traumatize him. I guess some Basenjis are more tolerable of noises than others. :o

Great videos! Gizmo is a big boy now! I love the second video with him trying not to fall asleep.. :D

Kananga, Benji used to run outside through the cat flap when he heard fireworks to investigate :D

That is one curious Basenji. :)
