Why is it….

Basenji Talk
  • Manning always has to sleep under the covers between my legs. At first he starts on top but by the time he is ready to really get to sleep he comes over and uses his paw to pull up the edge of the cover so I know to lift the cover and let him under. He isn't spoiled at all is he? (sarcastic sigh!)

  • Sahara loves to sleep where we are, and sometimes sleeps on the couch b/c that is where I end up at times. I have been having some back problems, and I will fall asleep on the couch and will find myself there in the morning even though DH comes in and wakes me up to say, "You need to get up and move to the bed now", which I never quite make it, anyways, Sahara will sleep in between my legs, but moves to bed with Daddy when I get up to go to work. Hubby works nights so he sleeps pretty late and Sahara will scratch his hand to get him to put the sheet or blanket up so she can go in under the covers. She is spoiled so bad I am surprised you can't smell her, haha:eek: :eek: !!!

    Well isn't she a sassy little thing? Thanks so much for the information. I had not heard of this one at all. I will Google it to get more info and find where to purchase! Deb

    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.
