Funny Ice Story

Basenji Talk
  • I fixed myself some ice water & then left the room to iron some clothes. My cat Spooky was sitting nearby, and she loves to dip her paws in water, so I made a mental note not to drink the water again. I came back a few minutes later, and both of the dogs were chewing on something. "Oh great… what did they get into?" I thought. I looked closer & they were chewing on ice! They finished their piece of ice & Lola went back to the couch, jumped up on the arm & dipped her face into my glass. She pulled her head back out, dripping water, with a piece of ice in her mouth. She jumped back down onto the floor, where she & Booger fought over the ice until I put the whole glass on the floor for them for easier access. They finally dumped it over, spilling the water out & eating the ice. Who knew ice was such a treat?

  • That is a great story!

    I wish Shango liked ice. Most dogs I've come across really like ice as a treat- Shango know's it's wet so he won't go near it!

  • Roo loves ice. He sits very prettily and patiently any time you use the icemaker on the fridge, hoping to get a "treat" If you give him one, he chases it all over our tile floor, until he 'corners' it somewhere and can chew it up.

    Silly puppies!

  • My kids love ice as well. I love it now in the house as my bedroom is the only room with carpet. They will chase the ice all over the house untill they get bored. Then they take it to my bedroom so they can sit it on the carpet where it can't get away from them. :)

  • Sahara loves ice especially if it is crushed out of the icemaker, sometimes she will stand beside me while I am filling my glass up. Some pieces will fall on the floor and she too will chase them around the kitchen floor and eat it. Sometimes she too has gotten into my glass of water with crushed ice and helped herself, but I let her have it and I get another, no big deal.

  • Piggy is a big ice fisher too…meaning in your cup. No drink is safe.

  • mine love ice too, but not as much as aerosol whipped cream! They come running when they hear the ice and the sound of the whipped cream shooting out of the can!!

    You gotta love when your dog can be entertained by an almost free icecube for "ever", well until it melts at least. Otis hasn't figured that fun out yet, but our gloryfied mutt, Luna (she is a Schnoorkie…), she goes nuts. Unless you sneak the icecubes out of the freezer she will be climbing the freezerdoor trying to steal them from your glass, and it is not like we won't let her have any...but stealing them is more adventurous, I guess. Our little survivor pup... on a whole different note, my cat that I had ion the past, she would try to take them out of your glass of water...she hated getting wet, but it is like the icecubes were talking to her, she could not leave them alone...she had to get them out of that glass of water...and that too, was a funny sight. A cat whose head is completely soaked from all her rescue attempts.

    Our little girl, Nami, is very vocal. She has a special greeting for us whenever we come home. And if we reach into the treat jar but don't give her the treat in a timely manner, we hear about that too… she scolds us for being too slow. Nami will also "talk" to the other dogs at the bark-park when they won't play with her. Our boy, Radar, is just the opposite. We refer to him as "The strong, silent type." He doesn't say much, but when he does, it is very loud! He usually sounds off when he and his sister are wrestling, then Nami breaks away to hide under the dining room table. He'll stand in the middle of the room and let loose with a resounding "bah-rooooooo."

    Indi has been teething and he actually likes to CARRY his teeth around. He will make the teething face (kind of like hes tasted something bitter and is smacking his lips with his toung sticking out) finally get it out and spend the rest of his time picking it up, carrying it about 5 ft and spitting it out. Then if no one notices he will continue doing this untill we take it away. Its wierd, really wierd but when he is holding it you see his best show dog prance while he is walking around.

    Sometimes I actually think basenjis have magic pee. The grass always seems to be greener in those spots. :D
