Silky, I miss you…

[BasenjiLuv]

My Silky is gone…
Her eyes of brown.
It's too bad she had to go.
Her fur of tricolor.
Why is she gone?
She choked.
That mean, mean cage... :(

[DebraDownSouth]

What do you mean she choked? How did a cage choke her?

I am sorry for your loss and hope you get a new dog, but please give your parents the info I left about a responsible breeder.

Condolences but I too am confused.

I'm very sorry about your loss of Silky, maybe you could post some pictures of her.
I joined this forum when i lost my Basenji and it helped.

[Patty]

I'm so sorry for your loss and even more tragic if it was an accident.

[BasenjiLuv]

When I say she choked, I mean her collar got caught on her cage…

[DebraDownSouth]

I am so sorry.

It is one reason I never leave collars on. Freak accidents happen. Had friend who had 2 pups playing in back yard, one got jaw caught in the collar of the other and broke it's jaw and killed it before she was aware.

My heart is aching for you. The loss of our loved companions is never easy.

[BasenjiLuv]

I was really little when she died, so I don't really remember her.

[Kipawa]

Thank you for sharing about your loss. You have helped me - I think that I will take Kipawa's collar off whenever I put him in his crate.

I have 1 yr old female and 2 1/2 y/o male basenjis..they are great but I would love to be able to see if they would get along with my 2 dobies..I have plenty of fenced separate spaces for both pairs ..but would love to be able to trust them together..my instinct tells me not to try..any ideas??

[Anubis's Mommy]

I NEVER leave collars on my B when he is crated. He hates his crate and will throw fits which could spell disaster should it get stuck in the bars or something.

I am sorry for your loss :(

Why are you afraid of mixing them? Have you let them together with supervision and had a problem? Are the Dobes same sex or male/female? Are they spayed neutered?

I am not sure I understand this thread.

I am not sure I understand this thread.

I don't either. I really wish people would start new threads instead of starting up a conversation inside someone else's thread. It is especially disrespectful to be posting on a eulogy post.

So sorry, my husband lost a boxer puppy to a crate accident when he was a child, somehow the pup pushed open part of the door and strangled.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my 10 yrs old Boy to Lung Cancer a month ago. I know the pain that comes with our little buddies passing on:(
