Hi, It's me again! I had to think hard about this post. I've lived with Basenjis for 11 years now, and I can hardly remember a life without them!
Q. Why does the toilet paper in my house usually look like this?
A. Because I live with Basenjis.
Q. Why do I (try to) keep all knitting supplies at least 4 feet from the floor?
A. Because I live with Basenjis.
Q. Why do I sleep in an enormous bed?
A. Because I live with Basenjis.
Q. Why does the sunniest bedroom of my home only have a futon and chew toys in it?
A. Because I live with Basenjis.
Q. Why is there never anywhere for me to sit?
A. Because I live with Basenjis.
Q. And how can it be that I always have friends around, even though I live alone?
A. I think you know the answer. :)

ReplyDeletelove love love this! :)
ReplyDeleteWhy does someone have to guard my plate if I walk away from the dinner table? Because I live with Basenji's! Love your blog Staci!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, except for me it's that I raise American Labs. I do want to share a solution to the toilet paper problem - it's product called Fooey by Synergy Labs. I bait a roll with it & keep an elevated roll for personal use. By the time every pup has tasted Fooey, that's the end of that. For really stubborn critters I spray the holder before loading a new roll. I've never met a pup of any breed, and we have plenty out on the ranch, that could out-stubborn the taste & smell of Fooey. Don't get it on your lips - you won't want to eat for a day!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I'd also have to had --- Why do I keep dirty clothes high off the floor and in a locked hamper --- because I live with basenjis.
ReplyDeleteWhy must I keep all cooking utensils/food/dirty dishes/snacks sitting FAR back on the kitchen counter? Because of the basenjis :)
Aww, that was so cute! And so true!!
