Otis is a normal B

Basenji Talk
  • oh yeah, it was a royal mess, but 4 very happy dogs and two kids desperatly trying to clean it up before "mom sees it". It was a mess. I just mopped the floors for the second time and I can still smell the stock. I think it went up under my dishwasher…that is what my hubby gets to do for fun friday night chores.

  • Heh, it's bound to happen at some point. My B is also not the normal type of destructive basenji, but every blue moon he gets into something.

    At least it wasn't anything toxic.

  • At least it wasn't anything toxic.

    except maybe me…LOL

  • How did he get it? Pantry door open?

    C'mon, it's a Basenji. They use their superpowers. :D

  • Nicky can get into all of our cabinets, most of our drawers, and can open a standard refrigerator. Sophie has learned many of her uncles tricks for getting into things so we have baby latches on our cabinets and drawers and bought an upside down refrigerator when we moved into our current house.

  • Well he didn't have super powers..or maybe he did. My lovely 4 yr old son thinks all doors shoul be left open, so it was conviniently opened for him..Of course Lukas has now heard that leaving the pantry door open is not acceptable..much to Otis' dissmay.
    Mu husband walked inl ast night, raving about how good it smelled in the house.."what are you cooking" of course that didn't help smoother my chagrin…

    Ah OK, the little guy was aiding and abetting Otis in the crime. Isn't this the same Otis that ate a tray of cinnamon buns?

  • jepp, that would be the same Otis..I guess he wants his food cooked after all..and sweetened…and moistened with broth..gotta love him

  • Of course we have to love them!! Who else would? I feel for you. Luckily, my little guy has never tried to help himself to the pantry/closet. And I often forget to close the door. I think, maybe, because there are bleach and vinegar bottles on the floor that he doesn't get interested in the rest above, (including boxes of stock) or maybe I'm just on borrowed time?!?

    I don't think paying that amount is unreasonable to talk to a vet. The vet practice I go to is one of the best in my town and all three vets are usually booked full a couple weeks in advance (though they will always make time for emergencies). If I were to go just to speak to the vet I would expect to be charged something for taking time that she would otherwise be using to treat animals. That being said I would check out both vets. It doesn't hurt to shop around.

    Abbey was almost banned from my son's house after she killed the cat's feather on a stick thingy. We don't have our own cat although she'd like to have one of her own. She loves cats!
  • For those with more than 1 B…
