Well done.
This is the male, he was the runt of the litter. When I met them there were 9, 8 girls and this one boy. I knew one or more died in the den because I could smell it for 2 weeks, and a local man told me she had eleven. Today I took the mother to the hospital to be spayed. When I met them there were 9 now its down to 5. That leaves 4 females, when they are old enough I'll have them done. I understand very well the street dog problem here, for this pack I will be responsible and try to stop the spread here.
Nice one Tunk!
6:30 am, been raining all night. Heavy rain off and on with high wind, 65 degrees and I'm off to feed my street dogs. Two years ago last February was the last time I missed a day feeding street dogs. Because back then I used to make border runs and sometimes miss a day. Cold and wet doesn't even figure into it, I go. Cold and wet just means you really need a meal in your belly. A morning like this morning,only about half as many dogs, but the ones you do have are starving, you don't go out and wander in that weather unless you are starving. And what a gift to give them, a full belly so they can go find a dry place to get warm and sleep.
After their last walk of the day, their vet beds are put on the floor. These two then normally adopt the 'spoon' position.

As I checked in for my flight out of Suvarnahbumi on Monday night I couldn't help notice these two basenjis joining me to Qatar. They were checked through to Helsinki with their rather stylish owner who was presumably Finnish.
We used to keep basenjis when I was growing up and I have a real soft soft for them. They're fascinating dogs and the only dog that can't bark. These two impeccably behaved basenjis patiently waited to be checked in before going into their crate. I've often wondered how my seven mutts would behave at an airport if ever I finally decide to go back to the UK. I think I would have probably lost at least three of them before check-in... it would be absolute mayhem.
I'd need seven individual crates for a start... and if I tried to get Yogi into one he would probably take my hand off... and he would have already tried to shag the girl basenji by the time we reached the check-in desk.

Becoming a habit, every night doing his bonding routine.
