Crazy Drinking

Basenji Feeding

  • I was drinking my Orange/Pineapple juice and sat my glass down on side table when Jaycee got onto table and starting drinking my juice. Not sure if it's good for her so I took it away but she really wanted it badly.

    At least it was not wine but is this crazy or normal drinking juice.

  • Orange/Pineapple???:eek: That's just plain crazy!!

    Mine only drink Apple or Strawberry/Kiwi :D!!

  • First Basenji's

    Cody doesn't do that, but Moe is a coffee thief. We have to be very careful where we place our cups.

    Oh tell me about it, Belle is a true little German and loves coffee:rolleyes:
    Mine love the smell of fruit juice, apple in particular.

    Otis got a hold of my coffe cup the other day and he got truly mad once I realized it and took it away…all I need is a B high on caffein..no, I don't think so..


  • I used to give my rw Ringo a coffee bean once in a while and he'd take it in the living room and drop it, roll on it like a cat does on catnip then eat it.


  • Hee Hee, Jaycee obviously wants to get her five a day.
    Benji loved tea and when he was ill and needed to eat i gave him his brew in the morning to get him going. After drinking the tea he would often eat. He was just like me realy, i cant eat in the morning and need a couple of brews to get me going.

    LOL, brews here in the US refer to beer. :)

    That is funny.

    Once, many moons ago, when my Westie, Bogus was a pup, he found a glass of whiskey one the rocks, it was sitting under the lawnchair my husband had been sitting at..he had to run to the loo. Well Bogus found this glass and licked every bit of it down and when my hubby got back he noticed Bogus licking the whiskey down, and bent down to taket he glass away from him and Bogus went nuts on him, teeth showing, saliva flying nuts on him. He clearly was of scottish descent..it was in his blood to enjoy a whiskey..LOL

    Too funny. It's hard for me to enjoy a glass of scotch every now and then, Kananga always tries to steal some. Although he has yet to overcome the strong alcohol smell.

    The Westie was in heaven over the smell..it was truly a sight to see, he was in heaven..he had just turned a year a few days before that, so I guess he thought he deserved it.


  • Milo has been known to help himself to my orange/pineapple juice too. He doesn't bother with coffee though.


  • Well Dan, maybe i did mean i have a couple of beers in the morning, lol

    That's what I thought. ;)


  • One time, I left Loki & Freya in the car while having a quick meeting before a road trip. Unfortunately, I had forgotten a 3/4-full 20-ounce latte in the cup holder. Loki generously helped himself to the whole thing! There was not a single drop left!!! And I really needed that caffeine jolt! Unsurprisingly, a 3 hour road trip with a B "bouncing off the walls" and diarrhea turned into a 4 hour ordeal.

    @Saving said in Anal Gland Health Diet Adjustment (ideas?): scavenging on walks has increased though and that's quite annoying. LOL, omgosh! The amount of food tossed on the ground is astounding! And doodle will grab it up before I have any idea it's there! I wish I had a picture of the day she pulled a (whole) bagel out of a bush!

    Hello, I recommend reading: Early Kidney Disease - Difficulty Getting Her to Eat at https://basenjiforums.com/topic/15616/early-kidney-disease-difficulty-getting-her-to-eat/13 What may guide your path: Kidney values relative to normal. Is there proteinurea? For homemade, read DogAware and accompanying websites. Good luck!

    I would find out what he scared of or what he dislikes about the car. Is it the car itself, the sensation of being closed in, the movement when the car is being driven? Then work on whatever the problem is, with food. As for food, I use raw duck and vegetables. And I hand-feed all meals, so I never have a problem with not eating/partially eating. I would also recommend hand-feeding for anyone who does have a dog with food issues. Shredded chicken is good (as long as he doesn't have any reactions). But that and some kibble isn't a balanced meal. You may wish to look into a vitamin supplement, specifically something that has a focus on omega 3 (since chicken is high in omega 6), Vitamin C & the B vitamins (because if all he's eating is chicken and kibble, where is his source of vitamin C and the B vitamins?), zinc & copper (same reasons). All the best. EDIT: I just realized this thread is a year old and was bumped by what is almost certainly a bot.

    I had a somewhat similar experience. Joey had a seizure which I correlate to taking Simparica. He looked terrible so took him to the vet when the first seizure happened and he was late Stage 2. Put him on Royal Canin kidney kibble and Hills kidney wet food and 4 years later he has only had 1 more seizure and his kidney values have remained constant. I will believe your homemade version is most likely better if you have the correct proportions. All the best to your Bs! Joey will be 15 in November.

    @Kipawa: Dan, that must look rather interesting in your neighbourhood. I wonder what your basenji thinks you are looking for. :) He looks at me like :eek: "what the hell are you doing"? "I just pooped there now let's get the hell outta here"!!
