LOL I still remember poor Mukat, my Rottie who really ran away from puppies in all stages. she was minding her own business laying in the hall and Awen saw her. She turned around and began BACKING down the hallway, turning her head to look ocassionally. Mukat's face expressed HORROR. But what could she do with dignity? It wasn't really LOOKING at her. It wasn't REALLY doing anything threatening that would justify her fleeing. Plus, to flee she had to go PAST IT in the hallway. So Arwen kept backing. And backing. And then she got right next to her and sat on her. If only I'd had my camera. Poor Mukat. She just stayed totally still, praying it would move eventually.
Pups!

I am glad that you feel comfortable with her knowledge and care. In the past few months, I have been assisting with a puppy class and have been seeing several mismatched pairs showing up so it is something that is more on my mind lately.
Oh ok, thats fair enough. thats understandable. i am more aware of it now though. Thanks
-
Hi, had to share these two snaps with you all, this little lady slept in my arms for a good while. I must say i am a little smitten with her
-
Too cute…. I want a wee puppy to snuggle right now:)
-
Very cute little babies! When I was choosing mine, I went for the most adventurous - and she has not changed! Their personalities show really early, so it will just be what you feel comfortable with. Good luck
-
She looks a lovely little Pup, it is so hard to choose.
-
Hi all,
Well i have chosen my little girl. But i think she chose me from the very start
I ended up choosin the one in my dp. This weekend is my last visit and i pick her up next friday!I have uploaded a few pics from our 6wk and 7wk visit. - some may be a bit dull as they were taken with my phone
So.. now the countdown begins!
-
they all look very sweet. just remember how sweet and innocent she looks when she eats your sofa.
-
So, so, sooooo cute…..I miss puppies!!!
-
You must be so excited for Friday. I envy you.
-
Awwwwww…
Congratulations Lysh :)...
I agree with agilebasenji about remembering just how cute she is NOW... Sometimes that cuteness will keep them alive, after they have done something VEWWWWWWWY bad
-
ha ha ha. yes, note to self: take lots of photos and remember the cuteness! lol i have been trying to "basenji proof" my house over the last couple of months. Both sides of the family think im mental "its just a dog"… they get 'the look' and a reply "yes, a basenji.." ive tried to explain but it goes in one ear out the other. Of course it doesnt matter too much as its just me and the other half in our household and he understands.
Now to think of names. My fav is Hope and next on the list is Ruby. However, Hope has a lot of meaning behind it all but Ruby is so pretty. So trying decide if shes a Hope or a Ruby.
-
I like Ruby, I think it would be so cute for a red and white girl…
-
How exciting for you, she's beautiful. I like either Hope or Ruby, we were toying with the idea of Hope before we picked Malaika as she was born on new years eve. My O/H also likes Asha which means hope in Swahili.
I know just what you mean about people not understanding about Basenjis, sometimes when i'm explaining what Malaikas like they give me a funny look, someone even asked me if i had taken her voluntarily
Hope the time passes super quick untill you get her. -
My O/H also likes Asha which means hope in Swahili.
.Ooh i never thought about seeing what Hope means in different languages. So i had a look around. Asha was my fav out of all of them too.
We have decided to call her Hope.
I had my last visit on saturday. I am picking her up Friday afternoon (3 days away!!).
I will add some photos from our last visit
I think we are bonding pretty well. Shes always in my lap or or playing with me and when shes worn out she makes sure she either finds a spot in my lap to sleep or somewhere close to me! Gets along great with the other half too, although i think the pup dubbed "lefty" chose him a little - they played non stop!
Enjoy the pics. - ((pups are named in the file name as to which pup is which))
-
She is very cute! Would love to know her breeding…. Many of us in the US have B's that come from Aussie lines....
-
She's lovely and i think Hope is a great name, roll on Friday
-

Yup, related… my Fatia's litter was sired by an Aussie Import from Tamsala (Tamsala Rocket Socks) as was lvoss litter from Rally.
-
Congrats Lysh, she looks absolutely adorable :)… Are you still planning to show her ??? Entered any shows yet ???
Could the sire be Ch Zandeen One For The Road, (Cooper) ??? He lives up in Qld with ? Chris Peterson, I think... Or could he be the Zandeena/Baagna import, Wanyika Hakim, who was sent up there for a mating this season ??? Just dying of curiosity
Anyway enjoy your little bundle of mischief, look forward to hearing about all the 'naughtiness' she will get into, to keep you on your toes
