We run the air all the time, keeping it under 70. It's cooling off some so he's fine. She is under the covers because we keep it cold. He goes out early morning, quick midday, then longer in the evening. We keep his coat stripped down. I have no idea if it will get cold enough to get a winter coat. It's not generally COLD here.

Basenji sighted advertising a psychoacoustic kit for dogs – "music" to help alter the psychological state of dogs.

(On a related note, there's Laurie Anderson's Music for Dogs that debuted at the Sydney Opera House last June…)

Apparently they're offering free downloads this week, with a rescue giveaway drawing at the end of the week:

They're on to something there for sure. My Abbey loves Irish and Celtic music especially, and she's a huge Chieftains fan like her Mom. She loves listening to Sting sing Mo Ghile Mear in Irish and Long Black Veil by the Stones. When we need to calm down a bit we put on Celine Dion.

This music has a very calming effect on my dogs. Just don't listen to it in the car - unless it is the one that is specifically for the car, that is…

Kipawa loves rock music. Any time I have to crate him while I am out, on goes the music. He is far less whiny when I return.

Bit of a thread swerve here, but does anyone know any songs other than the theme tune to Law & Order that set their Basenjis off? I love to listen to Butu yodel….

I really believe this helps. Uzie does have separation anxiety and just about 10 min before I leave, I put on a station from Directv that has easy listening. I enjoy it when I am home and do notice that all three of my pups do seem to settle down on their beds and enjoy it! I thank you for posting the link, my girlfriend needs this for her aging Silky who gets so worked up during a storm that he defecates all through the house…..
