Skin washing

    I know we've had a thread before about how our beasties like to wash our skins for us. I just had to share this episode that happened the other night.

    EL D and I were playing in the living room and he got distracted and moved on to explore something that caught his attention. So I just continued to sit on the floor against the couch and watched TV not paying further attention to him. Some minutes later he jumps on the couch (no big deal) and pretty soon I feel this paw on the top of my head pulling it backwards so he could lick my forehead. As i looked up at him he just continued down my face, licking everyhting (yuk). But I couldn't stop laughing because of the paw on the head part. :D

    That is soooooo sweet, they surely love attention and will do anything to get it back once they decide they want it again, it has got to be when they want it, haha"!!! How can you not love him to pieces, :D :D :D :D :D :D

    My 2 have to clean any wound they find. Mosquito bites to scratches are fair game.

    Katie goes overboard and will chew off any scab she finds and can get to….eeewwwwwwwwwww.

    Hi @Vesna, it’s interesting you say that about the spay. Our tri-color actually just got spayed this week and her coat shed before that. I noticed small amount of black hair growing in where she shed, hopefully it grows back. What phase is your tri-color at? Did this just happen?

    You were pretty much right DonC, I showed the vets office the picture I had taken and they believed it could very well been a bug bite that had caused the baggy skin. Sorry I haven't downloaded the pic I have really been under the weather. Maybe I will upload the picture sometime in the future.

    My undergraduate degree was in geophysics with a minor in applied math. I name all my Basenjis after Indian mathematicians. My current Basenjis are Madhava of Sangamagrama (Madhava for short) and Bramagupta (Bramagupta for short). They do respond to their "short" names.
