A fine looking Basenji!
Men in Black

Some video of the boys sleeping. The are 9 days old.
-
That is a 10 on the cuteness scale!
-
LOL! The one little B on the right is Turtled! He can't flip over!
-
They are adorable… But they don't look little to me, lmao. They look like two very well looked after pups... Mom must be proud, and glad there's only two!
-
They are certainly getting more than enough milk! Sophie got milk every time she was in season… so now that it is for real, most likely twice that amount.... I am sure with just two of them they will be "rolly polly" baby pups....
-
They weighed in at 1 pound 12 ounces yesterday at 9 days old. That is 3 times their birth weight. Sophie has plenty of milk for the boys and unlike her mom who liked to take "me" time away from the pups by this point, she prefers to spend the majority of her time with her boys and takes only short breaks from them. She actually prefers for us to hang out with her in her "den" so she can show them off, get loved up, and fuss over them all at once.

What a great MOM!

Congratulations! Enjoy the smell of basenji pups… they are lovely
-
I'm with Sophie, I too would prefer to be the the one sitting in her den fussing over them… If only we weren't on opposite sides of the country!
...if I was rich id spend all my time with puppies and moms.... "doggie au pair" -
Just out of curiosity… What would a typical (larger litter) basenji pup weigh at the same age?
-
They say that puppies should just about double their weight in the first week. The boys were at 2.5 x their birth weight at a week old.
-
I love puppies the way I love babies, roly poly beans…. I wonder if having a smaller litter makes it harder on mom to transition when they leave? Sorry I'm full of questions but I find singleton litters and in your case two to be fascinating...
-
Rio didn't even start really bonding with her singleton until he was 3 weeks old. I don't know about transitioning to him leaving since he is still here at 2 years old but I can say it wasn't until about 3 months ago that she finally made it clear that she is not his personal squeaky toy, at least not a regular basis anymore.

EEEEEK! They are uber cute!!! Always wanted a B&W. Congrats!
-
Any new pics of the boys?!?
-
Here is some puppy wrestling from this morning.
-
They are growing up well! So cute.
-
Well, that will get their legs under them! They look great, Lisa!!!
