Balloons

Basenji Talk

  • Mica and I were out on another walk when it was foggy outside in the evening. She is ok on that but than we walked by a small painted white sign with a hinge at the top resting on the road, about 2-feet wide and three feet tall, advertising flowers or something (here's the catch…) with three balloons dangling from the top of the sign sitting near the driveway into the flowershop at the small shopping mall. Mica looked at them, put her paws on the sign to lean on it, and one by one, nabbed her teeth into the balloons and each went pop. With narry a thought. Mica likes popping balloons! And they were someone elses balloons on an advertising sign. I didn't stop her, and was hoping they wouldn't see this basenji popping balloons. A new toy for her. Now how do you stop a basenji from enjoying itself? :D :rolleyes:

    She likes to chase flys too. :eek:

    BaMicas mom :D


  • LOL… that is too cute, you should have had a video!


  • LOL!!
    I haven't ever witnessed my B popping balloons. But, if I'm blowing bubbles, she loves to jump around trying to "catch" them in her mouth.


  • That is cute!!! A video would have been great…LOL

    Ah ok cool thanks, I had something like that when Safi was smaller and it was the most successful for sure. She outgrew it quite quickly though

    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.

    Our Puggle Chase is afraid of them too, I babysat once and took the little girl to Chuck E. Cheese, we brought home a mylar helium balloon and Chase kept barking at it, I had to hide it in the bathroom. I got one for my Birthday two weeks ago and thought he would be over it from the last time but he just kept barking at it. My DH did the same thing you did but he tied it to Zahra and she ran around with it on her collar. I was not happy about that and made him stop, she was having fun chasing it but poor Chase was terrified. I guess Zahra is fearless but our Puggle Chase is not.
