    Indi is 7months old and yesterday he discovered "making" his bed. We use a king sized comforter folded over 4 times to make the bed for his crate and just yesterday he figured out that if you dig at the edges you can make a nest, then put all of your soft toys in the hole, select a few chew sticks to hide in the folds, and bring your most favoritest chew stick in the middle, where you sprawl out over the toys and blankets.

    I wish I had my camera.

    What are some of your favorite doggie revelations

    (my second favorite was when he discovered sniffing stuff that was fun)

    Cory and Jayden have foam inside a pillowcase on the bottom of their crates. On top of that are dog crate beds that are wrapped in old babycrib sheets. They each have two little baby receiving blankets in the beds so they have something to "rough up" for when they make their beds comfortable at night. Sometimes Jayden gets too enthusiastic and gets all the cushions etc all bunched up in a big mound in his crate and he can't lay down. I have to remove him and completely remake the bed before he can go back in to sleep. Sometimes before he goes in his crate to sleep, he'll stand up and remove Cory's baby blankets from her crate (on top of his)….......just to irritate her at bedtime. And it does irritate her!

    Cute pup. She has all the markings of a basenji. Sometimes a little mix of another breed in her is good. It will help with not having the genetic problems basenjis have.

    I keep a box of shredded paper in the corner for Gossy to throw around (easier to clean up than TP and tissue) and a box of unshredded newspapers for her to bury bones. Initially the boxes of paper were for recycling purposes (I weed out the bones on recycyling day) but they suit her purposes as well.

    I hope to. Her dogs are beautiful. After talking to her for an hour or so I could tell that she cares for her dogs. I can't wait to meet her or her dogs. If I would have known that she was who she was when I was talking to her (dogs in book, knows way more than me.) i would have never been able to talk to her the way that I did. I must thank her for that. Anyway, she is a wonderful person. I hope that someday I could know half as much as she does.

    @wizard: I forgot to mention that my previous basenji loved to eat rabbits that he caught and muskrats. (I did my best to get those away from him) Oh. ew. We have found one or two squirrel carcasses in the yard over time, but I'm not sure who's killing them. Gypsy has in her youth, but I'm not sure she has the eyesight or speed for that anymore, so it's probably one of the Basenjis. Grosses me out! I know they'd both like to make lunch out of my cats.
