  • @Vanessa626:

    C'mon B-Boy. I've been trying to get you to come to Ca for months!
    You could still make it!!!!
    C'mon.. you could stay at our house!
    Warm house, good meal, Basenji eating your socks…Bliss! :D
    Hahah
    We'll miss ya...But I do believe Texas is in order. See you next year :p

    I love that part of California too.:(

    Could you imagine Willy, Jasper and Chance loose in your house?:eek: You'd be lucky to get away with just the socks.:D

    Texas it is!:cool:

  • Wishing everyone a great and wonderful week. It will be exciting here on the sidelines for all the updates.

  • Yes, it sounds like a lot of work but fun, fun, fun! Looking forward to hearing (and seeing?) more about how it's going!! Lots of luck to all!

  • Everyone is probably exhausted. It was a long day yesterday. The last event didn't finish until 7:30pm and then some of us helped with the blood draw which took until about 8:00pm. I had to drive home so I could teach today and didn't actually get home until midnight.

    My husband is showing Sophie today in Puppy Sweeps. So far no news about how it is going.

    Yesterday Nicky, DC Sherwood's In The Nick of Time SC, RN, LCM took 4th in the 9-11 year Vet Dog class. Pat's boy OJ was the oldest Vet in Sweeps and took 2nd in his class.

    Sophie was 2nd in the 50% not greater than 75% 9-12 AF Puppy Class and her brother, Zeke, was 3rd in his class.

  • It was a sad day, I had to forfit Chance's first event. Hopefully we will be there tomorrow. Paws Crossed.

  • Thinking about you ladies, don't over do it.

    Vanessa, Chance is young, he'll have lot's of shows to do in the future:) .

    I know you hate to forfit.:(

    Aw…:( Today is a new day. Keep us posted! ((Hugs)) and hope you all got some rest!

    Hooray Sophie (& OJ, Pat) Keep us posted…how exciting! I hope you got some well-deserved rest!

  • Paws crossed for Vanessa and Chance :)

    Lisa/Pat–do you know how late the events will go Friday afternoon? I'm going to be in a meeting in San Ramon in the a.m. and wanted to stop by the fairgrounds in the afternoon. I couldn't tell from the schedule what time the afternoon events would start and end.

    We start at 10am… and most likely will be done around 2/3pm.... however if you can, come by on Saturday for the Basenji Club of Northern California Specialty... (yes us here in No Cal are nuts to have put on a National Specialty followed directly by our regional Specialty)

  • Hey! I am here, travelling companion Vickie Perrine (Rugosa Basenjis) Our flight in was a little rough, but we are having a great time so far! Pat…uh, could you fix the weather ;)

  • @tanza:

    It's better Pat! Thanks!

  • Does anybody know where I can check for results? I heard through the grapevine that Magnum's dad won some sort of veteran's award, and I'd like to confirm that.

    NM, I got my answer. Magnum's dad (Ch Nyanga Signet Sweet William) won Best Veteran. Cool! Thanks for the update, Pat!

    Very nice pictures, job well done by all.:cool:

    By the way, not only did Will win Best Veteran in Sweeps, but he was also Best of Breed for the entire Specialty from the 7 to 9 Veteran class!…

  • Good job to all the workers and planners - these things don't go on by magic but lots of hard work. I wish I could've been there but as we all know "life is what happens when we're making other plans."

    Congrats to all winners - and congrats to all who participated - after all you can't win if you don't play. Thanks for playing!

    That's a fantastic idea. Here is the schedule: https://www.basenjinationalspecialty.com/schedule/ For a spectator I think agility is hands down the most interesting. Unfortunately it's on the weekend so perhaps not the best for meeting breeders (if you care). This also doesn't seem to be Basenji only, so if you want to see Basenjis then probably not the best. Lure coursing can be fun and there is a lure seminar on Monday. So Monday for that and Tuesday for Puppy and Veteran Sweepstakes?

    I would love to bring Wheat down, but don't think I can make this show. Sigh. Please post the photos and such to this site. If we can't be there, at least we can share it with you!

    We're thinking about having another lure coursing fundraiser in November. It was so much fun this last time. Here is the photo album from the photographer. Lots of different breeds of dogs. http://www.allcreaturesphoto.com/GroupOrg-Events/BCOSW And just to toot my own horn, here is a pic or two of my dogs from the album. Zoni - she's a natural, can't wait to run her for real. She has laser focus on the lure. http://www.allcreaturesphoto.com/GroupOrg-Events/BCOSW/BCSOW-Fundraiser-May-15-2010/BCOSWFundRaiser201005150858/875537175_bhDBE-S.jpg Nemo - can't believe he actually coursed. He's a bit of a goof (and looks like a kangaroo in the pic :) ). I was more thrilled to watch him run than Zoni. He zoned out the second time to sniff some flowers and didn't complete the course. :D http://www.allcreaturesphoto.com/GroupOrg-Events/BCOSW/BCSOW-Fundraiser-May-15-2010/BCOSWFundRaiser201005150856/875536788_UsTCt-L.jpg

    I haven't managed to find any Basenji's in my area and Id like to get together with some other Basenji owners and their dogs and let our dogs socialize and let us human's get to know each other. I love Basenji's and I figured it would be awesome to get them all together at a dog park or something and let them play. I figured this would be a great place to throw this idea out there since SO many members are on this site :)
