Happy Birthday, Basenjis!

It was party central in my house over the holidays. We celebrated the birthdays of the three B's in the house.

Jazzie turned 7 on December 26th, Dixie turned 4 on January 3rd. Since we don't know Benny's actual birthday, but do know he was 9 when he came into BRAT, I declared his birthday should be January 1st. He turned 11 and has a penchant for de-fuzzing tennis balls and furry hedgehogs.

Besides frosty paws, bacon chip pancakes and treats galore, each birthday brought new toys.

Among them was a hedgehog with 8 squeakers; completely de-squeaked in short order.

A single squeaker hedgehog; promptly de-squeaked, de-stuffed, face and limbs chewed off.

All the other toys were properly maimed and disfigured as well. The house was a mess, but a wonderful time was had by all creating such mayhem.




Happy New Year to all and Happy Birthday to all basenjis!

  2. We have several hedgehog carcasses around our house too - all gifts, all sucessful gifts. My girl b's favorite toy is something referred to as "the headless bunny." Sounds like a great party - Happy Birthday Basenjis!!
