And now a word from Calvin...

This month I decided to let Mr. Calvin Cuddles come up with the content for this post. Here is what he would like to share with his fellow basenjis and their slaves.
1. I do not like winter.
2. It was so cold that I thought I lost my paws as I couldn't feel them. I kept looking down to make sure they were still there.
3. Mom makes me wear this stupid fleece turtle neck with polka dots. I HATE IT!!! But she says I cannot go outside without it cause it is very very cold. And I REALLY want to go on my walkies so I have to wear it.

Oh, and I went on a hunger strike and WON!!! I didn't like the boring food mom buys so I decided to stop eating it. I was so hungry and had to live off of crumbs and what I could steal off of plates and the trash. But it worked! Now I got this really good salmon and anchovy kibbles!!! YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not fair!!!

Last night Calvin said to me, "How come if I look at Toni the wrong way she grumbles at me but she can lay on top of me and expects me to be all nice about it??? That is NOT FAIR!!!" Poor little Calvin is learning a few lessons on life and dealing with the ladies!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

The PERFECT gift for a basenji!


Had to share this:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/18766649/naughty-dog-tee

I also have a couple other funny ones (like "Bad to the Bone"). I do all the silk-screening by hand. All tees are in VERY limited sizes and it should arrive by Christmas if you live in the U.S. and order by the 18th. Plus 10 bucks is a great price + all the profits are being donated to BRAT! :)

Small and petite basenjis take a size Medium, bigger basenjis take a size Large.

Have a Happy Fantastic Day!

Pink Swan


Found a pink tutu when I was cleaning out my craft room. Calvin was the lucky dog who was with me when I found it. I have a feeling he doesn't think he was so lucky. But he was tolerant enough to pose for a cute photo to make his mom happy. <3
