Basenji Talk

  • Today was the first day of school for my daughter and I had the day off, yeah!!!. So the dogs got their first long walk since school let out. I mean 2 hours of "our" time. Now Chief for the last month has started lifting his leg to pee which is fine but today I was working on keeping Zoey calm in the face of a squirrel and I feel my sandal is wet. I look down and that little B chief had lifted his leg on me and I had missed the whole thing. Ok I figure I will catch him at it the next time and give him a firm NO. But I didn't figure that next time would be during that same walk. But I did catch him before he wet me again. Well walking back after another distraction with Zoe my sandal feels wet again at some point he had done it again! God Bless America!!! I cant believe he did this! lol I will have to be more aware so I can catch him and correct him but I swear he only tries it when I'm distracted with zoe.


  • Hmmm, he must be pissed off at you. No pun intended. I can't think of why a dog would pee on someone unless they smell another dog on them and they want to mark the person's leg like a tree.


  • Too Funny, keep a sharp watch lol!


  • Been there, had that…. there are stories galore about boy dogs peeing on the owners and/or handlers at dog shows.... My favorite story is Teri Gavaletz the day she finished Tuffy.... just as they were going in for the win and new champion picture he peed all down her pants leg!

    Do you get points for that? :D

    No, but we all had a good laugh at Teri's expense….:eek:


  • I have had several boys pee on me or Don…better than on a total stranger (been there too). What a scoundrel Chief is!



  • I think Chief should pee on that pole and not on your leg. :D Sorry I couldn't resist stealing this pic of Chief from your other thread.


  • See my (unhelpful) thought was, "Awww, isn't that nice. He loves you and wants everyone to know you are his."

    told you it was unhelpful.


  • Well he must love the pole too because he hits it almost every walk lol. Its really comforting to know he loves me at least as much as a pole :)


  • That picture is really really nice - beautiful dogs - now I'm really glad I have girls - although they can't pass a pole without sniffing it a lot, at least I know they won't be mistaking me for the pole!


  • Got this pic this morning and yes after 2 hours I came home with dry legs lol. I dont know what was up with him the other day today he never even tried it. Is he lulling me into a sense of security?


  • Another 'peeing' laugh, I was at a Toy Group ringside at one of our championship dog shows when one of the top winning chihuahuas of the time lifted his leg on one of our foremost group judges! (Albert Wight for those of you who know him). You should have seen the look on the judge's face!!


  • lol at least its nice to know i'm good company :D


  • Our Tri only peed on one person's leg in almost 10 years, my sister in law!

    "Good boy!"

    Praise, praise, pat pat. "What a good boy!"

    Is it the tri who's doing this?

    If it is, another feather in the tri devil's hat!

    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.
