Love it. Great stay.

I love how his body seems to get stiffer with every wardrobe change!!!!:):)

I have a fleece for my BRAT, Hunter. He is so tiny & lean. When I put it on him, I call it his turtle walk. He drags his back end. Don't know why, it's not too small or tight. He's just crazy & funny that way!!!!

@Shaye's:

Cairo is a beautiful boy! He looks nearly exactly like my girl, Shaye - so of course he is the best looking guy around.

@Patty:

Lovely pictures - he's a very smart boy.

Thank you for all the kind comments.

I agree (and he does also) that he is great looking boy. Very smart as well.

Me and my parents joke around all the time, saying that he is a celebrity around our town. Everywhere I take him, people go out of their way to see, pet, and inquire about him. Cairo's doctor said she only knows of one other Basenji in our area, I have yet to see.

Becca and Tucker are certainly more adventurous than Spencer. He wants no part of water– coming from the sky or puddled on the ground. When we're walking, he will screech to a halt in front of a puddle, like he's waiting for it to move.

Becca and Tucker sound like fun dogs to have around. I saw their pix in another thread, and they are so cute-- bet there's never a dull moment at your house!

@tanza:

Sounds like it went well! And keep in mind, the handler can always request from the judge that they show the bite. I have never found a judge that refused that request.

I never request… I just put my hands on the mouth and lift the lips before the judge asks... no one has ever said a word to me about it.
Usually they just thank me for being so efficient! It is something that will settle him down if you are working with him on a table and checking his bite daily... then he knows you will do it and it won't bother him.
Also let others check his teeth and give him a treat... makes it all fun for them!

Thank you for the posts!

Congratulations, very jealous of the yodel.. Ayo is completely quiet.. I actually don't think vie ever heard a yodel!!!!

Lovely pictures - he's a handsome boy.

Debra - what a coincidence - I too had my first tick this year (or at least Bereke had the tick, not me) and that after more years than I care to remember.

My husband remembered seeing instructions on how to remove it luckily!

What a cutie. HAHA…love the sleeping pic of her and the whippet!

@Patty:

You've obviously made up so much for her earlier experiences. Well done to you.

What breed is the bigger dog in yor picture, please?

Thank you Patty…. Zeba is learning that people aren't painful thanks to the patience of people around us... if you are asking me about the brindle colored dog behind them, she is a mix at the dog park~ I will find out! 🙂

Dr Jo, I was not suggesting just adding african dogs. Although the Maine Coon people pretty much allowed ANY cat to be bred in when they opened their registry. But yeah, lets move this to another thread.

@Basenjimamma:

He is adorable..I bet he loved it…

As far as the sandals...Chaco's ROCK..I could so walk the face of the earth twice around in mine....well that was until Pippin just chewed the straps off...Otis did it before him so off to Chaco's the go for replacement straps....again!

They are suedo hiking sandals with vibram soles, totally ergonomic to your sole and so adjustable, they fit like a glove.

I'm a little over 2.5 years into my chaco's and I love them! I wear them everywhere I can. I think I'll need to send them out to Re-Chacco this winter though. Get them resoled and some new straps. I can't say enough good things about those sandals. Unfortunately, they moved all their production to China after I bought that pair, at least if I send them out for repair it will stay here in the states.

Cairo does that after a bath ( he only gets one if he gets into poison ivy, or gets dirty on his walks), B500, then shakes his "gutted" toys, then has to have some duck jerky or beef lung.

He was originally called Patch but I have always liked the name Seeley and decided to call him that. I still can't decide which one(s) to keep and which ones to rehome. There are things about each animal that I really like. Every one of them could earn their AKC championships, well, except Seeley. His second testicle never dropped. 😞 But, his personality suits me very well and he shows a strong desire to lure course. (He reminds me so much of his dad Baron and that's what I was hoping for from this breeding.) Rainie and Blaze are the most logical prospects for my breeding program though. I don't know. Decisions, decisions.

She's likely cooling off for a while. Lovely pictures.

What a lovely trio and great of you to give them a happy home.

What great pictures - they look like they are getting along beautifully. I love the fact that she fluffed up in cold weather - the shiba is gorgeous, and brindle B's are my favorite color!

Is it a proven fact that Chip is the sire? Or only guess work? Just because the pups might look like him doesn't make him the sire unless DNA was done?

Unless RMH does the DNA test, no one can say who the sire is. And all the more reason for Fanconi test to be done if the bitch is a Carrier. We have already seen test that show one thing and then the dog starts to spill. So, the DNA test gives a heads up, but still strip testing is necessary.

Very cute! 🙂

Sweet pictures 🙂
