My wife and adopted a 7 year old guy from BRAT this past December and he does the same thing. He's a retired puppy mill stud that never learned how to climb stairs until he was "freed." If he gets a running start, he can leap a step or two, but if he walks up to steps, he goes up backwards, just like in the video. He also has a phobia with certain door thresholds. But don't worry. He's a super fun little guy who just has a few little quirks. He can outrun his 12 year old B-sister in the yard, but she always beats him up the stairs.
Basenji sitter in NYC
-
I am looking for someone to stay with my 2 Basenji's in my apartment while I am traveling September 7th thru 14th.
We live uptown Manhattan, just below the Cloisters, and my boys are 10 + 11.5 years, very friendly and easy to be with.
They need 3 walks a day (around the amazing Fort Tryon Park, across the street for our house), can be left during daytime
for 8-9-ish hours, eat once a day at night and need no medication. We live one block from the A-train for easy access to downtown. -
Hi: I too am looking for a sitter in the NYC/New Jersey area – if you found someone, would you be willing to share that info? Thanks!
