A new past-time for Rocky: Chasing waves.


  • Recently, we took our two to the beach at Point No Point (it was sunny, but cold, hence the coats):

    where Rocky discovered a new hobby - Chasing the crashing waves and nipping at the seafoam. I managed to get a video of it, and posted it here:

  • Oh, Steve you did find good coats for them..looks like a great day for all.


  • He realy loved running alonside the waves, didn't he. I love the sountrack of the ocean :)


  • Wow how fun!

    LOL on the coats, I have those. Okay had. I put Sayblee and Arwen out in them one very cold day and they tore them up in less than half hour. One was beyond repair, the other in the closet. My Rotties and chow had never bothered theirs. Sigh.

    He absolutely loves it. He runs up and down the edge of the water, more or less non-stop. If there's a large piece of driftwood running into the water, he's been known to hop onto that and nip at the foam as the waves crash.

    Other people that have seen him have said that he has the energy of a puppy, and didn't believe he was 11 years old.


  • A lovely video - and goes to show what I always say (and many in this country disagree) that a Basenji is not a veteran at 7!!! Wonderful that Rocky is 11 years young.


  • What fun he had … but all the time my heart is in my mouth wondering if he comes back; scared to death he'll just keep running - the video ends with him gone ... OMG.

    He always comes back - he knows I carry treats with me!


  • Great video!

    I'll try to get more pictures - my camera is old and he tends to come to me when he sees it so all the pictures end up blurry. And I'm still waiting for the "two are easier than one" part ;) How do you work on training one when the other sees treats being given out or take them for a walk when each wants to go a different (opposite) way? Oh wait, it is easy when they are napping :D
