THis is really a lot of fun – I've enjoyed reading what others have received.
Pity the poor folks who couldn't participate. :p -
We are preparing for the Winter Holidays Basenji Buddies Gift Exchange. Details to follow in another thread.
-
I'm excited to do this again!
Shango and I sent ours out a few days ago so we're anxiously waiting until our basenji buddy gets their package,
Shango hasn't recieved his gift yet so we're anxiously waiting for that too! We look forward to come home and find a package on the door step. We can't wait!
-
So I came home this morning and there was a package waiting for us at the door! It must have come yesterday after I'd left for the day.
We hurried to open it up because we were so excited; boy did Jill and Tosca spoil my boy, Shango!
He was given tons of delicious treats and really great toys including an awesome stuffed bat that he already loves and a really great rubber ball that can hold some of his treats in it for him to hunt out. He also was given a great bandana to wear, which will be perfect for him to wear next weekend when we go do a dog walk!
I can't THANK YOU enough; you were more than generous to my Shango and he LOVES everything he's been given.
Here are pics for proof; these are all taken just minutes after opening the gifts. He played with everything immediately! THANK YOU SO MUCH JILL AND TOSCA!!!
Tosca, you should be getting yours any day now!
Thanks guy, this has been a blast. We can wait for the next one!!!
-
I am so glad you and Shango liked the gifts! I am glad the stuffed bat worked as well, I tried to find a real Batman one, but no luck. Thank you for posting the pictures too, its so much fun to see him playing with the toys…and the bandana looks adorable
I agree, this was a lot of fun, and Tosca is very excited to get her gift too!

The bat is awesome and he's been playing with it all day! Really, you were very kind. Thank you so much for the gifts. Do you have camera capabilities? I'd love to see pictures of how Tosca likes her gifts! Heck, we'd love to see pictures of Tosca!
Mailed her gifts last week so they'll be there any day this week! Sit tight, Tosca!

Dallas received his package from LiveWWSD on Friday afternoon. He was so excited that he didn't want to wait for mommy to run to get scissors. He started pawing at the box! Haha. Anyhoo, here are the photos I took:
Checking out the Cheetah Stuffed animal…
Got him! Dallas certainly loves to hunt stuffed Cheetahs :p
Pawing at the cackling witch toy!
Shaking her around a bit. LOL
Sitting nice & pretty for a sweet potato treat! He, like Zaire, will actually LISTEN when I whip one of these babies out :p Thanks Daniel! These treats are a godsend!!!
Dallas loved the gifts & I have already put the sticker on my car which reads: "Wag more. Bark less." Haha. I appreciate everything, as does Dallas! He hasn't let that darn Cheetah out of his sight!
I can't wait for the next exchange!!!!
-
WOW I can't believe the post got that package across the country so fast, AMAZING.
So Glad Dallas enjoyed his gifts. This was SO MUCH FUN
Those Sweet Potato treats are my secret weapon when Zaire is refusing to listen.

I was shocked too because I did remember seeing when you said you were heading to the post office! I sent my from online, which is why I wasn't able to send a letter with it
Stupid Petsmart. However, once you get the items I can explain a little more I just tracked your package & it's in Washington state as of 9 AM. It says you will receive it by the 4th but I'd hope sooner if it's already in Washington!
-
Are those Free Range treats?!
Shango LOVES the Free Range Sweet Potato treats (if that's what they are!)

Sahara got her package today, and boy did she want to get into it asap. I think she could smell the bully stick, it is her favorite treat. Thanks to my basenji buddy that sent it our way, Sahara loves, loves the pumpkin, and the pigbelly. I have never seen one of those, and she just loves to throw it and run after, she brings it to me also to play fetch. The bone you sent is also a favorite treat of hers, haven't ever tried the salmon, liver ones. She loves liver and fish so I think it will be a hit also. Thanks again for being so generous, we truly appreciate your thoughtfullness. Treat my baby girl good, and it makes me smile, and happy. Hopefully I can get some pics of her and her box downloaded tomorrow.
-
I'm so glad Sahara got her box. We had so much fun picking out the goodies!
This was a REALLY FUN IDEA…and we can't wait to participate in the next gift exchange! (I'm already putting together some ideas!) Thanks again for Jackpot's treats...he sleeps with his zebra toy now! LOL
P.S. The Wellness treats are Jackpots FAVORITE! I hope Sahara likes them!
-
The guy at the post office told me that it would take only one day to get the package from Denmark to the US. I wonder how long it takes to get it arround in the US.

Wow. Dallas is one handsome boy!

A big Yodel and thank you to Dallas and Nina for the great gifts.
My roommate said the mailman got here early today, and all Day Zaire was trying to get him to open her gift box.
He kept telling her she had to wait for daddy to get home.She felt that as the package had her name on it daddy could go suck a lemon. :p
But she was a good girl and waited for me to get home.
Here are some pictures of the loot she received. (For your viewing pleasure)
Here is an AMAZING shirt for my little princess. (Nina thank you so much I need to remember that this cut of dog shirt fits her SOO well. I have never found a cut that works as well for her)
And here is the lovley princess modeling for us all
Here is a CUTE CUTE CUTE stuffed mailman toy. (I couldn't get her to stand still with it long enough to get a good shot, that just proves how great it is)
Here is a better shot so the rest of you can marvel at its cuteness.
And here is Zaire being SOO good for an AvoDerm treat (A treat I have been meaning to try out, and that she LOVES).
Thank you so much Dallas and Nina. Zaire Loved Loved Loved her gifts.
This was so much fun, I can't wait to do it again.
Also a thank you to Andrew (And Shango, who we all know was the brains behind this idea).
What a great way to get to know eachother.
