Serious thinking

    A few weeks ago, EL D tore up a stuffed toy I brought back from my trip to Poland – it had fallen off the shelf and I didn't notice. Of course I was P#$%&* at him because it was a special item, but then felt bad because you could see in his eyes that he didn't understand -- "it was on the floor and it looked just like my other toys".

    Anyway, the other day I was sitting in my den with EL D on my lap and suddenly he gets this really strange look and stares at my desk -- on which was the remains of the torn up toy. He stared and stared and stared and stared. It was quite clear what was going on in his mind -- "that looks like the new toy I tore up, what is it doing there?"

    Stupid dogs indeed - ha!

    @jengosmonkey - Correct depending on his conformation... it that and movement met the standard then yes.... years ago a friend had a black & white Male that was about 30lbs and was about 19 to 20" tall... he finished his championship. Chances of the "Neuticles" being discovered most likely would have happened, however. It had been tried in other breeds.... one was with a Golden that only had 1 testicle so they had one neuticle implanted when the pup was about 8 months... funny thing about testicles... sometimes can come down at the most inopportune times... image the judge when did his exam and discovered "3" testicles....LOL Opps! by the way the dog and the owner & handler were DQ.

    Thanks for all your help! As I mentioned previously, it was the trainer that said there may be some basenji in this dog. We had never heard of basenjis, so it's been interesting to learn more about them, whether or not she has any in her. Thanks again for your input!

    Although my DH gets yearly "puppy lust", my personal rule is "I don't take any basenji under 2". By 2, their brains have developed and their attention span is longer than a nanaosecond (where you are concerned). They still have plenty of youthful energy but are not uncontrollable maniacs bent on destruction. That said, I confess I get puppy-lust myself, they are just so cute and funny and adorable. That is how they live to adulthood! Anne in Tampa
