It's been my experience that sometimes my basenji just gets it in her head that she doesn't like another dog, and for seemingly no good reason. I have been able to mitigate her behavior, but this is not a cure….
First, an excited basenji is a biting basenji. Make sure he's calm. Make him sit. Exert your dominance. Stand over your dog, look him in the eye. You need to snap him out of his mindset and remind him that you're in charge and he doesn't need to be aggressive.
It will take time and patience, but he can be made more comfortable...
I've also found that walking together as a "pack" helps. The two humans in the middle, the dogs held on a very short leash to either side, and you ignore your dog's aggression, focusing them on the walk itself. After a short while, they should just about forget one another. But this also acclimates them to each other. Good luck!
My dog ate my….

4 day old cell phone.
i wonder what verizon will say when i bring this in?
and those cute little indentations you see are teeth marks!i remember when i met fender mary k said "this has been the least chewing litter i have ever had".

Mine have chewed 2 of my cell phones. Rio is attracted to flashing lights that go off when it rings.

maybe if it wouldve been in a leather case this phone chewing would make sense….it is so weird, he never bothered my old one....wonder what it was about this one he liked so much?
lvoss, what did your phone company say? -
Do you have the insurance on your phone? I know that I have washed a cell phone, drop one out of my Jeep while driving (it was a Wrangler and the windows were off, it slid off of the dashboard, very slow motion when it happened), my hubby has dropped one in the toilet, etc and we had the insurance and only had to pay $50 to replace it.
Maybe Fender wants his own phone and that is his way of telling you he would like one that isn't a flip phone so it would be eaiser for him to use.

I unknowingly dropped my phone in a parking lot, drove over it, and didn't realized where I had lost it for two days:eek: I went back, when I realized, and there it was! It actually lasted for another year!

Oh dear!

I have insurance on my phone so when I called to request the replacement they asked why. When I told them my dog chewed it, they asked, "Is the dog alright?" and were glad to hear that she was.

Aw, c'mon, Ambered, cut him a little slack! He was only trying to call in a pizza order and save you from having to make dinner! He just got a little too…ummmm...enthusiastic!
-
Maybe he was trying to call you and invite you over to his party but his paws were still practicing to get the right number. You know, there may have been that wonderful smell of those fingers on that handi - and he just wanted to savor the taste of those things that smell like you…

About a week after bringing Giz home, my cell phone got some decorative teeth marks, too. Giz had gotten the cordless phone, my cell, our tv remote, our dvd remote, our surround sound remote and our son's remote all down from various areas of the house and had them lined up on the floor like a doggie buffet, just deciding which one to destroy first. Luckily our son caught him and saved everything from certian electronic death.
