Basenji Talk
  • I sent mine out yesterday..sorry for being late..but it will make it to where it is going in a few days..so well in time for christmas..

  • We'll go shopping this weekend.. I had my last exams of 2009 this week, so I was too busy :S

  • Mine basenji box was received yesterday. Can't wait to here how Gossy liked her gifts!

    They were handpicked by Hunter!:)

  • I ask for two so my one that is far away is gone other one to leave Sat, morning not far to go so it will be there in plenty of time.

  • I sent mine out today. I hope the dog likes it all.

  • I sent mine out Tuesday it should be where it needs to go by this weekend :) When i brought the stuff home Phoenix got his head in the bag And had to see what i was sending :rolleyes: So it's all been Basenji Approved LOL :D {Don;t worry i didn't let him run off with anything } lol

  • I have my things, just need to box them up and send them out…hopefully on Monday :)

  • We got our gifts package today, but we are not opening them until Christmas eve December 25th. Family tradition, dogs get to open their gifts with everyone else :)

  • Gossy recieved her box the other day (I'll post pictures in a few days - my camera batteries died) and of course it was opened right away. Lots and lots of treats! And a fun toy which she has dragged around the house all day (she doesn't usually do that). And did I mention she got bully sticks and lots and lots of treats!
    Thanks Hunter and Bandit too!

  • Otis got his too, so much fun..yes we opened it and pictures are coming..I have yet to down load them..they are coming. Otis is on the raw diet so the treats that came in his box were very much loved..all our dogs were in heaven..they have never had so many yummy treats in one day..

    Thanks Cheyanne, Phoenix, Aspen and Lori too..you box is coming..hope they will like their threats and gifts..

  • That is great! Everyone is getting their gifts! Please post pics if you decide to open them.

    Please also be advised that the matching of gift buddies was random, so you are not necessarily going to get a gift box from the person you sent your gift too.

  • Glad to hear they liked it :) I know when i was boxing it up Phoenix was given me that "Umm mom how about we just send them the empty box and i can keep the other stuff" LOL

  • @phoenix3:

    That's exactly how Tillo and Lycia reacted! ..ggg.. :D

  • It is funny, because Otis did steal one of the toys out of the box when I was packaging ours up..the really large one, and he was having troubles running away with it..because it is rather large…you'll see..so that toy is Otis approved for sure.
    They loved the toys all of them, Otis is sharing..not his treats but the toys..jepp the treats he is rather snarky about. I took some pictures, will post later..

  • I sent out our package this afternoon! I had it sent as 'Priority', so if all goes well, it will take 'only' 7 days to arrive!

  • Hunter and Bandit openend their present on Saturday.

    They were very happy!!!!:) I took some pictures and I'll try to upload them tonight.

    Power to the women!

    ;)

  • They got there Package today :) I am gonna try and Upload some pics Thanks Basenjimomma they loved it :)

  • Here are some pictures of Otis enjoying his first ever christmas gift..he had no clue cardboard boxes could contain so much fun..he always insisted on tearing them up..

    Here we are just digging into it..notice the other dogs barely reaching into the picture..they knew this was for Otis..

    When Otis wants something he parks his butt in the ground and starts high fiving..thus this picture..his first ever pup peroni

    They were a huge hit..look at him dance for them..

    He loved, loved, loved his gifts..the treats yumm-o, the hedgehog toys, cool as all get out, and the cardboardbox…price less...

    Thank you Phoenix3, again..

    We use the muttluks for Mowgli and Miika and they do stay on, they are on the second pair already as they used them so much the old ones have holes in the bottoms - i think this is mainly from the salt on the roads. The pups love them and don't mind wearing them and are a must up here in northern Alberta.

    sorry, Luzern, was the City. I always mix them up. My Granny did speak a little Schwizerdütsch but she was originally from Vienna and has learned it through the Years. She passed away more then 20 Years ago, but I still can remember the smell of Luzern and of special things around her. Regards, Esther

    If the wax doesn't work, try muttluks…my B wears them. It's funny at first for her, but she adjusts and takes her usual walks with them. Keep us posted on how the wax works...very interesting!

    When Lillie had stitches in her paw, I needed to keep the paw dry. I tried everything. What worked and fit the best were natural rubber, waterproof dog boots by Pawz. 12 disposable boots…slips on, stays on. I believe they were around $17.00. Their website is www.PAWZDOGBOOTS.com. Of course, as soon as we came in from our walk, Lillie was trying to get them off. Another waterproof dog boots we tried were waterproof nylon boots with non-skid soles and Velcro straps for a snug fit. $9.99 They did not fit as snug as the pawz. There is no website on the package. The company is Signature Fashion Pet Collection…#130 Waterproof Woof Boots. Good luck! Jodie:)

    I put my Buttons in a K9 Top Coat Arctic Fleece Jogging suit which covers her belly and all four legs. They are really warm and perfect for our early morning walks when it's very cold here in MO. Size 3 fits most Basenji's like a glove and it does not cramp their style. Only problem is that they are quite expensive but Her Majesty Buttons worries not about little things such as that as long as she is warm and toasty.
