Here and there.
I sold our rural place and moved to Amarillo 50 miles S of our place. Still 5 hours to Taos :).

Rescue Hazel 5 months with us and now we have a huge park 3 minutes from new home. Filled with Ducks and Canadian Geese hanging out all winter here. Maybe 5 miles+- of trails and multiple lakes/ponds. She has become one of our best pups ever.

I love his lopsided smile in the cone! And of course, the toilet paper.

The toilet paper has a dual meaning for Basenji owners and helped his win. Basenji's are notorious for "de-rolling" toilet paper, running with their streamer/banner prize behind them around the home.

Our first B would hope someone would leave the BR door open just to nab it.

I had a cat that did that, but only when left alone for a couple of days. A protest.

And come to think of it, my granddaughter specializes in such tricks! Went to get "a tissue" and unrolled the entire roll.

But a breed known for it? No kidding! Wow!

Basenjis are often described as Cat like.

This mostly due to grooming habits. They like to lick their paws and clean themselves. While true in grooming, I will claim they're more packish than many breeds, which isn't very cat like.

Here's a decent Youtube on their self grooming:

The look on that dog's face at the very end of the video - be still, my heart!

Roxy our eldest being sat on by Bill. Xerxes in background watching.

They don't mind piling on top of one another being pack dogs but Roxy looks a bit questionable on happiness.
