Oddly, my B does worse when off her turf when meeting new dogs, and is much better meeting them at home. I have to say that the only way my B was okay with a new dog was if the new dog was crated and she got to sniff and check out the new dog without it jumping all over her. Once I knew my B was okay with the new dog, I put both dogs on leashes in case one became aggressive, and let them out together in one room.

Wow!! Looks like you had a great time,,,,,I am jealous!!!!! We are in Ohio and I know you have said that you are in Penn. ,,,,,,,,,,are there any other B owners in the area??? Maybe sometime in the spring we could all meet in a central location and let our furbabies play together!!!!!!

…To sum this all up on a serious note. We had a great time, our hosts where too kind, the kids and Nala where just so cool and too cute. I've made some more new friends, all thanks to our B's and this forum.
I say it all the time and I still feel the same way…….special dogs special people.Our thanks to Nala's Mom and Dad for having us, it was an enjoyable experience we will never forget.
:o Aw…what a beautiful post. We enjoyed meeting two people (and two pups) that felt like family. I only wish it was a longer visit. We thoroughly enjoyed our guests and I know I learned so much from Mr. & Mrs. BBoy. It was a dream-come-true for me to have 3 Bs running around my house! I think I've caught the fever...the multiple fever, that is (don't tell DH
)! Jasper and Willy are beautiful, sweet and so well behaved. It was a great experience (and relief) to see Nala enjoying herself with her two "boyfriends". I wouldn't doubt it if she was the one to have lured Jasper out of bed that night!!;) My kids were so excited - for weeks prior to the visit they were saying, "Basenji Boy is coming, Basenji Boy is coming!" Now they can't wait to visit Basenji Park and to have them come back for another visit.I have to thank the forum as well for connecting us to all of these wonderful people that have led me to have a greater understanding, appreciation (and sense of humor) for this amazing breed of dog.
PS It sure was an amazing visit…we even saw a moose! Usually when you are giving someone a "tour", it never happens!!

What awesome photos of a beautiful place!!! Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed them!!!

What a beautiful state, and those Bs aren't too shabby either. Love Jasper, Willy and Nala, they seem like old friends. The pictures are just gorgeous, I love the area, what part of Vermont were you in. I have never been there, I would love to visit Vermont sometime. Anyways, looks like you had a great trip.

Sounds like you all had a great time. What a beautiful place!! We used to travel up into Vermont a lot when we lived just south of Nashua, NH and I went to college in Middlebury, Vermont. I kind of miss it.
-
What stunning pictures of the scenery. I love the colors. I think its wonderful you all got to meet in person and share your common bond – basenjis! So little Jasper snuck out of his room in the middle of the night??? Naughty boy. Thanks for sharing.
-
HOW FUN!!! And what a beautiful home and location! And how great that the dogs got along so well! And nice to put some human faces to the names as well
Thanks for sharing pics! I think we should all plan a fall leaf get away next year!

…Nala was initially only "flirty" with Jasper at first and then with Willy the next morning...it makes you wonder...;)

I've actually given some thought to a "Basenji Forum" gathering of some sort…........just don't know where or when would be the best or how to organize it......multiple gatherings???? Something to consider.
The 2008 Specialty in Texas is certainly a good gathering choice.........However, Texas doesn't sound all that leafy to me.:D

LOL - Me neither! I have heard for years that Vermont is one of the best "must see" Fall color tour places. So, nala121498 . . . If not at your beautiful abode, somewhere that could accomodate many Basenji and their people??
Trip of lifetime for me anyway. I just loved the wonderful pics that BBoy posted. You are so gratious and kind to share the pics! Of course - we love pictures. Did I say pictures? 
Yes! -
