    @vivsos said in I Know, you are tired of being asked,: she was found on a beach & no-one came forward for her We found a puppy on a beach in Ireland when we were sailing / camping there. My son (then aged about 5) walked for miles carrying the puppy in his arms and telling me 'dogs need exercise'. When we came to leave, the camp superintendent told us the site was closing next day and the pup had been abandoned weeks earlier, very tiny. So we dropped him back into the car and drove home with him. Like Topsy, he grew and he grew ! Definitely greyhound in there somewhere. A lurcher and a fabulous family friend who brought Paul up !! He was my first dog since I was tiny myself - so I know beach-found doggies are very special. Have a DNA test done and then you'll know more about him.

    Thank you everyone for the nice and fun comments! Did she choose the costume?! She said I could choose for her….as long as it was fit for a princes!!! haha Her costume seems like a perfect fit. Was it hand made? Yes, I made her costume this year. In 2008 and 2009 I bought little girl dresses from Goodwill and "tweeked" them to fit her appropriately…...but, this year I just started with a bunch of fabric I bought from a garage sale for $1. When my kids were young I spent all of October every year making their costumes.............but then they GREW UP! (The NERVE!!!) So now I have Haley who seems to be perfectly happy wearing costumes.............she's obviously the perfect dog for me! (It gives my friends one more thing to tease me about, that's for sure!!!!!) Are all Basenjis OK with wearing clothing? I'd love to hear all of your stories!!!

    Me daring to leave the door open is something my 4 yr old laughs at..after all mom, it is just toilet paper…..he doesn't see the mess in it, he thinks it is funny. Now the trash digging he understands the danger of, since he has been with me to the vet when Otis was so sick last, come to find out, it more then likely wasn't the trash that got Otis sick in the first place, but I would like for him (4 yr old) to think it was…that way he gets the point... We will, do what I have done on the front and back door, put a a sign up that says beware of the basenji thief.., on the front and back doors it says…beware of the basenji runners, keep door closed at all times.., oh and then we also have The chickens are out, no dogs allowed.., for obvious reasons..not so much basenji related as Dachshund and belated Westie related. I mainly posted the picture of Otis in the toilet because it cracked me up seeing it..but thanks for your ideas, guys..

    As an aside - some time after Gossy entered my life, she did something that really ticked me off and I yelled at her right away. I don't remember now what it was, but oh I was so mad :mad:. But what does she do - just like a teenager, she mouthed off at me (with this little rooor rooor)! Talk about diffusing the tension - I just couldn't help but laugh :D. I learned my lesson :).
