@jengosmonkey haha definitely will! I feel like I am living with an annoying roommate rather than a loving companion

@eeeefarm and @tanza Thank you That's good to hear, and yes there will be at least a few other pups staying longer as well.

My 12-month B is potty trained and knows to go through the doggy door onto the balcony to pee. However this morning, he was playing with my rug and I firmly said no a couple of times for him to stop.

He proceeds to walk away and as I turn my back, he pees on my rug!

The doggy door was just 1 metre away! But also he usually waits for his morning walk to pee.

Are teenage pups vengeful? He's been very difficult lately!

@elbrant Thank you for sharing your experience and jealous you already have your B! I will take on your advice and let my breeder know

My 9 month old boy is such a funny little fella. He used to love cuddling up to us and get in our bed during winter. I would physically pick him when he asked as he doesn’t like to jump.

I got him his own dog bed and since then he now refuses to get in our bed!

He will still cuddle up to our feet in the kitchen or in the living room.

Is anyone’s basenji like this too?? I miss the cuddle bug XD Maybe he will come back in bed next winter on his own terms…

@jkent They're such fussy pets... Every time I pop him in our bed, he will jump back down!

@tanza Agreed! Koda sometimes chooses his dog bed or the crate in the other room. He seems content with his alone time but hates it when we leave him alone. We've taught him to sleep on his own at night since he was 3 months old though... From 8pm to 10pm he was in our bed and then we would take him to his crate for the night. I guess that's why he prefers to chill in his bed now
