Malaika and Kwame update

Show Off Your Dog
  • Malaika is now 16 months old and Kwame 16 weeks, here's a little update.
    Malaika is now working for her Gold award and is a very beautiful Princess Basenji :D
    Kwame has just started Puppy foundation classes and has got off to a promising start.
    We are finding it very interesting to compare the two and watch their interactions with each other. Not sure at this point whose going to be boss.
    In class, Kwame is a bit calmer to handle than Malaika was at the same age and seems as if he'l be easier to train on the lead.
    Malaika is more laid back about food, Kwame is obsessive about it and we will need to work on his resourse guarding food around Malaika.
    They both get on realy well together, getting into mischief around the house etc. Malaika can be a terrible torment, especialy when Kwame is tired and won't play. She waits untill he's going to sleep and then comes over and gives him a good hard jab with her paw :eek: . Needless to say it's not well recieved.
    They do love each other, realy

    ;) The Cat in the first picture is an ornament, it's a winstanley cat with specialy made glass eyes, they appear to look at you wherever you are in the room.

  • Thanks for the update Shelley. Kwame is getting quite the young man. It's so nice to see them sharing!

    @moetmum: I love Kwame, I hope we see him again next year. He can visit his newest relative, Taz (Indie is his grandad). I hope the training is back on course! thanks Gerry, i think we need some pics of Taz ;) Re the training, we will see what happens on saturday, we will have to tread carefully

    she went from being a fussy puppy to being a puppy that just wants and loves food. if you have food she will do any trick you ask her with 110% enthusiasam if it means shes gettin food lol but i am glad shes not a fussy girl! We are waiting to hear back from the breeder to see what pups are reserved and which arent. Very excited. Hope gets to play with a chinese crested at work and she also plays with another two iggies down at the small breed social i run every fortnight, she seems to know that she has to be careful with the smaller dogs :) shes not much into wrestling with others, more or less just wants to run run run! i will have to upload a video of her and yoshi (the chinese crested) playing at work (the most ive seen her play! as usually its just tag, now chase me!) and will post the link here. So funny and cute. will post iggie baby photos once a decision's made :) EDIT: Video link to them playing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDTjuz_tNpM

    @McCannClan: What an adorable girl! I love those wrinkles and she actually poses for you. I cannot get my new girl to sit still long enough for that… I think Faro is a bad influence on her. Your Athena is beautiful. Hoping you have many fun filled loving days with her. Thank you! It amazes me. She always sits still or stops moving when I'm pointing my camera/phone at her. It's like she knows. Every day since I got her has been fun! @DebraDownSouth: What a cutie! In a couple, it shows the white of one eye and I was going to ask if she has a "lazy eye", but then I looked back at the baby ones… nope, just your camera angle and her looking at you a bit from side. Cara has an absolute lazy eye, btw.. so you know why I was looking! I envy you that cute baby stage. OMG wouldn't it be wonderful if you could keep them like that. Give that wrinkly face a kiss for me. Sigh. Thank you! At times it does look like she has a slight lazy eye but mostly it's the camera angle and the way her head is. Don't worry, I give her many hugs & kisses everyday! this is my favorite picture I've taken thus far. [image: IMG00470-20110329-2131.jpg]
