    Fran, this will show you that 2 b's are better than one.
    So, lets get a second one to your home!!! laugh.

    Sharron, now aren't you being a little trouble maker? :D

  • With 2, you have all that fun all the time! I'm just saying…......

    So glad you got to meet Chewie, I'm sure you will have many good playdates. (If it works out, think about swapping 'babysitting', that can work out really well for a few hours, or days)

  • Yup…now you see why those of us with multiple basenjis love it!

  • Sounds like Kipawa and Chewie had lots of fun! And I think you are never going to forget your camera again from now on….. ;) :D

  • How much fun…
    I once had that happen too at the dog park, when I had Otis..we walked closer and through the fence I could see two red/whites and one tri running by..my heart skipped a beat..what are the odds of meeting one basenji let alone three at the park..zilch, zero nada....but we did...come to find out two of tehm had been my fosters for a very brief time until they made it to their longer term foster..whom in turn ended up adopting both of them..small world..

  • Nice for Kipawa…I'm hoping for a chance encounter like that for Scarlett.

    'When' it happens, Scarlett will love it Walter. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the both of you.

  • I like the saying two are better than one. House is lots of fun and life is great.

  • Sharon is right, now you know how we get sucked into having more than one. Something about watching them run together that just looks so natural. I had his two sisters and two of my other dogs running the property together in the sun (brief moment of sun) Saturday. It was so great to watch them interact with each other and take turns chasing each other.
    Glad he got to meet a friend who was fun for him to play with like that, great experience for him.
    Hugs,

    Honestly Therese, I don't know who enjoyed it more, Kipawa and Chewie, or the adults who were watching them!

  • That's great!! Too bad you didn't get photos, though. Would have loved to have seen them!

  • It's been a little over 3 months since Mr Baroo came to live with us and Karin and I are grinning most of the time because of the wild play times with Bitty. She had been developing a severe case of couch potato untul he came. Now every time they go out the back door it is at a dead run and Mr. B leads Bitty on multiple circles of their 1/4 acre yard.They are so awesomly beautiful when they run likle that.

    Last I heard, the Breed Club secretaries had more people waiting or wanting pups than were available . You could get on a list for a Basenji next winter but I very much doubt you will find one still unsold. Go to the website of the BCGB, or the Northern Basenji Society as you are in the North and you will find email addresses of the secretaries. They will put you in touch with breeders who may be planning a litter for puppies to become ready to leave the nest in about a year's time. Its a long wait I know, but you have most probably missed the boat for now. You are welcome to post me privately. Good luck!

    I have found that if I take my B to doggie daycare (even if it's only for half a day), she is ehausted when I bring her home. She will let me do the dishes without any basenji help! She also tends to treat our doggie friends a little nicer when they come around. Having a worn out basenji is deifinitely worth the $15!!
  • Beeji played today!!
