• Great Story! You're very lucky to have such an insightful dog!


  • Makes me think of a new verse to the Cop's theme song

    "Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when the B comes for you"! LOL!

    Good job Cleo!

    Did she get a special reward?


  • Yes, she got lots of extra love and a treat. It was late so there wasn't too much time to celebrate late night. But I plan a special dinner for her tonight with and extra special long walk too.


  • Great story…good dog cleo...kudos to her..


  • Too funny…I love her version of Lassie LOL ROFL!!! Good job Cleo!!


  • Back in 1983 I was moving out of an apartment in a triplex that was fenced all the way around. At that time I had an 8 year old Tri color. She was a no nonsense Basenji that took nothing from any dog or person. A friend wanted to stop by, when I wasn't home and look at the place to see if it was something he wanted to move into. He told me the dog would not even let him enter the yard. He said the dog scared him. GOOOOOD dog!!


  • @Arizonaskyy:

    I made a joke "I guess she is like the modern day lassie. Timmy didn't fall down the well, but some guy is going to pop a cap in someones ass outside, lol"

    That's excellent.😃 😃 😃 😃 😃

    Must be something about the name Cleo. We have one by that name and I doubt anyone could sneak in with her around.

    Good stuff, thanks for sharing.


  • One time my daughter had a friend over. While they were playing in my basement our female basenji comes running in the family room squeeking like she never has before, running around all antsy, like Lassie did (except no barking). She leads me to the front window and I see a bunch of strange kids walking in the middle of the street.
    I go back & sit down thinking "yeah so what?". A few minutes later the visiting kid has to go home and discovers his bike that was near or garage has been stolen!

    I remember the kids and call his dad and tell him the story. He gets in his car and drives around in the direction the kids were headed. He spots them with his son's bike, they take off, but he was able to follow them back to an apartment building were they lived. He goes and starts talking to the moms. The theif had a specific basketball jersey on, so they figure out who it was. The mom finds the kid, returns the bike, them proceeds to wail on the kid!

    Her puppy name was - you guessed it - Cleo!


  • that is crazy! Cleo…..

    were all of the Cleos' tris?

    they say certain colors have distinctive temperments....


  • Mine is actually a red. But she is also a mix. I am still trying to figure out what she is mixed with, lol.


  • awesome story!!
