  • Under my strict supervision Lycia tried unsuccessfully to shred a stray balloon….:D

    and it was really funny… except now she goes hunting for balloon like plastics around the house :eek::eek::eek:

  • Hahahah.. LOL! That's too funny!
    But it has to hurt when the balloon hits her face!!

  • She didnt really seem to care….

  • I've also heard of letting them play (supervised) with hair "scrunchies." You know the rubber-bands that are covered with fabric… About the same effect, but a little less snappy!;)

  • Oh yeah…. Lenny goes ape with hair scrunchies. its hilarious. to the point now where when i pull it out and stretch it in front of him he immediately play bows and tries to grab it and jumps back and forth. I don't even have to do anything with it, I just pull it taut and he starts... ha ha.

    tayda could care less.

  • ROFL! That was funny!

  • That video is hilarious, my B, Sahara loves to stretch rubberties that my husband (has long hair now after military for 28yrs.) pulls his hair back with. If one is laying on his nightstand, bathroom, Sahara has it lickkie split. She plays with it for awhile and then chews it into, and leaves it wherever it falls. Crazy dogs!!!!!

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    I used Wisdom Panel for my assumed Basenji mix. It showed no basenji at all. My boy is 32 lbs and short hair. His DNA says he is 25% American Eskimo 12.5% Boston Terrier 12.5% Chow Chow 12.5% German Shepherd 12.5% Miniature Schnauzer 25% Breed Group-Sporting, Herding, Hound, Terrier. Having owned basenjis all my life I would say my boy has basenji in him by his personality and behavior regardless of what his dna says!!
