Ciao from Italy!

Ciao to all, :)
I'm Sara, I write from Trieste, Italy, a town east of Venice where I live with my fiancee … and Biagio, our year-and-a-half male basenji.. (by the way in Italy Saint Biagio protect and support those suffering from sore throat! ;) )We chose to take Biagio home after visiting a sort of pet shop where he was kept alone in a box, and was destined to an ugly end because he was nearly 3 months old at that time and had his nose completely pink, yet. :mad:
He is absolutely sweet and easy going with most other dogs and cats, and, eventually, his nose is almost totally black (last summer he got sunburnt during a boat trip since it was still pink!)
Sorry for my English, I will certainly read as much as I can of the forum, but it would be more difficult for me to reply or to tell my stories.. :rolleyes:
Anyway, happy to be get to know this community!!
I'm not sure if it is right to write it here, but for those of you who knows a little bit of Italian... take a look here (we're a lively community and loooooove to host new guests from around the world!)

Welcome! Welcome! I can't wait to visit Italy someday. I am hoping that i will get to go there on my honeymoon, whenever I get married anyways. That was a very touching story about how you got your puppy. I can't wait to see pictures. :)

Welcome to the forum, it is a great place to share Basenji information and make new friends! Since you are Italian, you know the meaning of my Basenji girl's name… Bella Bambino Biamondi (she is a girl... my Italian is limited to a few words and I found out later it should have been Bambina). The Biamondi is similar to my great-granparents last name whe they came to America from Italy! :D :D :D :D I dream of someday traveling to Italy!!! Hopefully my dream will come true...

well English speaking you have less problems with gender!!! Anyway, Bella Bambino is a real good name!
this reminds me there was a mare (I think at the beginning of the XIX cent., in England), a pure bred, called Signorina (=miss) who never won a race, and her owner had no money to find a famous stallion for her, but she fell in love at first sight with a stalion, not a real winner… Signorinetta (little signorina) arrived eleven months later and she became a very super star and won lots of races!!! that's the power of love!Sorry, I like this true story so much I wanted to tell you! :)
