@jordandwilly - Thanks for clearing that up.... 9-5 is just fine, IMO.... I work and have always had to leave mine when I was at work, never an issue. That said, we were able to set up the house that access to the backyard (with 10 to 12' privacy fences) with a doggy door and a dog room in the house for them, Locks on the gates so there is NO access for anyone. Dogs sleep 90% of the day so being at work doesn't bother them... never have mine even when I had a litter in the house (And have been in the breed as owner/breeder for 35+ years). You can hire a dog walker to take them out mid day..which is a good solution. and give them a mid day meal depending on their age. I do not and never have used free feeding, period. Especially if you have more that one... you never know what/who is eating what. And you can set up camera's on line to watch them from "afar".... LOL. Keep in mind people that many of us need to work and have day jobs. The most important thing is the time you need to spend with them when you are home. Example would be, if you have young children and you work... when you get home you are going to spend your time with your human children... NO dog would be happy if left out... they need their time also because they are a family member and need as much time as a human child. Again in my opinion

Great drawing. A few years ago I wanted to find someone to do a portrait of my husband's elder B/W basenji. It was awhile before I found someone to do it and also was reasonably priced. It was done in pen and ink, since oreo was black and white it was perfect. It was truly a exact image of him done by seeing pictures of him. It was a wonderful christmas gift for my husband. although his daughter laughs that Oreo's picture is bigger than the one he had drawn of her when she was a child. Oreo has now passed on and when I had this done I had no idea how much comfort it would provide years later. It still brings a smile and fond memories of his special buddy every time he looks at it.

These are all great!

Not the best picture, but this statue is pretty cool and I just had to have it.This is some of my personal art work:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Andrea may remember this one.:D
I wanted Andrea(Quercus) to post a picture of her Af pup. Well it was taking longer than I was willing to wait. I sent Andrea a note and told her I was going to post this picture on the forum and tell everyone that this might be what Andrea's pup looks like.:D
Andrea had a giggle and told me my art wasn't bad…...so here ya go!:D -
Love the statue…the stick figure is quite nice - I myself am a MagnaDoodle "arteeest"....LOL!
Seriously though...great work! -
That Casting is amazing!
I would of bought that in a heart beat as well. I have been to a lot of African Art dealers/stores and they never have basenji's or even Cape Hunting Dogs.
