• I don't have experience in this, but I am so glad they get along so well!


  • I am glad your treaching both the b pup and your son to be respectful.
    It's the way to go!


  • I am so happy for your Aiden, I don't think this bond will ever change. I have been told that when dogs choose the one they want to be with most that it is forever. So, it looks like your son is one lucky, blessed kid. Congrats!


  • when I read this I'm so happy!!!
    When I was little My parents had a dog and he bonds very much with me. Just the same as you telling!

    I learned so much about dogs when I was that young and I got a very very good friend.

    I think children learn very much from having a dog around.


  • Thank you! I am very glad as well, but a little jealous of Aiden!! Hahahaa….GEEZ they are like Twin Toddlers!!! URG...LOL....its great!


  • See… now you have "two" children to raise... only difference is one has four legs...gggg and the four legged one never "grows" up.... Basenjis think they are Peter Pan for life!!!!


  • The answer is he will most definetly not grow out of it. Whe I met my husband I remember thinking. I hope he will love me that much some day…..seeing him and his dog together.


  • How special for a child to have such a wonderful companion. That kind of bond will teach both of them so much and will serve your son greatly in the years to come.

  • The tables will turn at some time. Aiden will choose Maverik as his best friend and comforter.

    My daughter told her Tyler all her best kept secrets. His fur was stained with the tears of childhood angst for many years. The dog always knew everything before us:D. Basenji love is the best therapy out there.:)

    BTW, hows the little bean?? Due date??
