Achilles


  • Here is a picture of Achilles playing with Alex's Halloween weapon

  • very cute. I think this may be a good lessen for Alex to put his toys up.


  • Looks like a basenji doing what he does best…CHEWING :D


  • Alex doesn't really care about this toy. Believe me, anything that is truly valuable to him is put away.

    When he grabs something he knows he shouldn't have, he beelines it right to the couch, then watches out of the top of head (or so it seems) to see if anyone is coming. He really is quite a charactor. So far he hasn't ruined anything.

    He is going to live with my daughter in a couple of days.


  • This is a classic picture of the chewer looking at you with those eyes as if to say "You're NOT going to take this!" Achilles looks like a smart boy.

    You and your DH have sacraficed your time and energy to give him a great start down a happy life. You are his angels. He will surely repay you and your daughter with a lifetime of adventure and love. Even though he's given you quite a run, I bet you're gonna miss him. ;)

    Once he's with your daughter, please keep us posted with some updates and more pics - please . . . :)


  • I am actually going to send her a link to this website when their computer is up and running, and she will hopefully use it to her great advantage. Yes, I love the little guy, and I will miss him, but my legs won't…....Climbing over that gate has really caused me a few problems.

    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!

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.
