Hi there. My name is Tiny and I'm a Basenji/Cattle Dog mix. Mom, Dad and my sisters adopted me when I was six months old. I'm a little over 2 1/2 years old now. My birthday is May 21st. Well, ok, that might not be exactly right but since I was rescued, no one was really sure when I was born. Mom and Dad picked that date because it's their anniversary. That whole marriage thing escapes me because I still like to play the field. There is one hot Lab next door that has my attention but he's been playing hard to get.

Mom is always trying to get pictures of me. She grumbles (she does that alot) because I won't ever pose for her. What do you expect? I'm still a puppy. Women. I've never understood them. Oh wait, I am one. Well, scratch that....I guess I could just say that humans are a little off...especially the women. They are so emotional, you know?

This is me, playing with a stick. Because my parents are too cheap to get me an actual doggie toy. I think when I decimated the remote for the TV the other day, they decided that I was unworthy of real toys. Go figure. I think humans put to much stock in material goods. But hey, that's just one dog's opinion.

Tell me, truthfully, does this picture make my butt look fat? I really need to start nailing the treadmill. The thighs are getting mighty heavy.

Now, on to my dad. He's, well you know, a little crazy but heck, having two young human girls tends to do that to a person. Not to mention a wife who is totally BEYOND understanding. You gotta feel for the guy, ya know?

He's been having a rough time of it lately. He's been working two different part time jobs, plus he's getting ready to open up a computer store with a friend. Sometimes he gets a little crazy. And yes, that's Mom's bra he has on top of his head. Care to guess the size? Oh man, she'll probably only give me fish food for a week for that comment.

Well, it's time for me to go now. Mom's a bit mad at me because I got hair all over her keyboard. Oooh boy, I think I'm in for a bath. Eww..that means water.

So - if you're part basenji, do you bark?

And your Dad is going to be SO mad at your for that photo!

(great entry, Moogie! heehee)

Ooohhhh. ....I love basenji dogs! I did a report on them in the seventh grade because I wanted one so badly. I read somewhere that basenjis don't bark. And also that they can climb trees. Which sounds to me kind of like..... a cat! How neat! I'm jealous... :)
