    Hi @Vesna, it’s interesting you say that about the spay. Our tri-color actually just got spayed this week and her coat shed before that. I noticed small amount of black hair growing in where she shed, hopefully it grows back. What phase is your tri-color at? Did this just happen?

    We use ones from Rukka. Not sure if they’re available everywhere but they are they best ones we have tried (others always fell off, especially in deep snow). I think having two Velcro closures on each sock has been key. I also prefer the soft shell ones as our B seems to accept them more and they don’t twist as much as the ones with a hard sole. Here are the ones I am referring to: https://rukkapets.com/paw-wear/thermal-shoes-black

    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.

    Champ doesn't like it when I sing to someone other than him. If I snuggle with someone he'll try to come between us or pulls on my shirt. But when my daughter comes back from a long weekend away he'll get very excited and pull on her and also nip. This was a big problem we had before with our daughter but we began doing the treat thing. When she would wake up in the am she would tell him to sit and calm down and then she will give him a treat. She also started walking him on the leash and feedng him. We started showing him that she was an alph just like mommy and daddy and needed to be respected. On occasion when he does not relax and nip or pulls on her shirt, we'll use the empty can.
