    Very cute! And I'm sure your husband will appreciate that he got you a gift you love ;) Etsy is always fun to browse. I ended up getting my wedding cake topper through there. Just did a general search for Basenji, found a shirt I should buy and wear when I take Loki out with me. Then random people can know what he is without needing to ask!

    @sharronhurlbut: I agree…death is not the worst thing that can happen to animals. Sometimes its a kindess. I cry everytime I have to take a dog to put it to sleep. Thankfully, its be a while since that has occured. I agree with you ….. sometimes it is the hardest act of kindness you can do.....

    You all make great points and I agree with you all. BUT I still think the public is adding to the population pet overcrowding, by having intact dogs. This should not in my opinion effect show dogs, as this is a whole other catagory. But, if they can give the distinction to cars, motorcycles, and trucks, why can't they give the distinction to show dogs, pet dogs and the like? I mean, its not brain surgery. I do understand everyone having issues with across the board pet legistation…but I think it can be broken up into sections, and handled according. Again, We need responsible show breeders and this is a totally different sect from the bubba's that just put 2 dogs together.
