My previous Basenji Kembe use to find something that belonged to you when she was mad. She would then SHAKE IT VIOLENTLY in front of you to let you know she wasn’t happy. She could be a spiteful b@#$%! But we loved ♥️her.
Dog pees and then wants to lick it up
-
While our little Basenji Roo is crate trained, sometimes when he is excited or we miss a sign that he needs to go out, he will pee on the tile floor in our bathroom, and then want to lick it up. Does anyone experienced have any idea why he exhibits this behavior? Is he mimicking his mother's behavior? Will this stop once he is neutered?

Most basenjis are naturally very clean. If one of mine has an accident in the house they try to clean it up.
-
Mine do the same.
In fact, occasionally they'll even do it outside.
-
It is pretty common for Basenjis to do this as lvoss and jazzysmom have noted…... doesn't have anything to do with being intact....
-
Very common behavior. I have had some that prefer to drink it "right from the faucet" of a male who is lifting his leg. Kind of gross but not harmful in any way.

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
One more reason I am glad I'm not a dog. :p
-
Dakota used to do that all the time too.
-
Dallas does that all the time! I never know anymore when he pees in his crate except for his damp paws because he licks it all up. I always wondered why he did that…
Thanks for posting this Jason!

This is just part of their natural tendency towards neatness, I suspect.
On the other hand, big EWWWWW - squeamish people, stop now -
We have a poop eater - she will literally follow her running mate around when he goes…
-
Does this eating of stool cause any intestinal issues for the dog who dines?
-
if the stool passer has worms or some other 'icky bug' yes.
-
Ruby pooped in her crate once and then proceeded to eat it to "clean it up". The resulting vomit mixed with poop was something I'll never forget. :eek:
-
Yeiks! my husband says he will never go to dinner with my doggie friend because that is considered "dinner table" conversation.
He prefers to sit with the horrified listeners at the other tables…
Laugh -
Doesn't seem to… she's very healthy and active!
