Hi guys,
and thanks for the welcome AND for your approval of the database.
Hoover is NOT delightful. Overnight and obviously sleepless, she chewed my mobile phone. When we are away at a show, the dogs are bed-dogs. My hostess doesn't mind, in fact, in winter she is jealous of my hot-water-bottles.
When I get around to it, I'll post pics of Hoover and Keepurr (you can growl it or purr it and we did keep him. . . ) playing in the unseasonable snow.

Sometimes - when she shines (rarely) I wish we had called Hoover 'Electrolux'. Cos then she could be 'Electra' and morning would become her. Our dogs always name themselves by their behavior or their looks.
Plessy started out as 'Hope-The-Lessor' - cos she was a dead ringer for Hope as a puppy. She is now a month short of 15. Firbi was dragged out of Plessy by his tail - hence 'First-born'. The rest of the litter were delivered C-Section.
Curly, Chezz's Dad, was one of the Three Stooges. Gerry's Moet was another one. We didn't breed Chezz but for some reason I wanted to call her that and so prevailed upon her breeder to combine his affix with ours so she was Jethard chez Zande.
Right - Now I am going to add photos to the d/b and play catch-up on incoming emails.
The dogs are scattered around the lawns with HUGE knuckle bones. I kid myself its good for their teeth (actually initially the sinews do act as doggie dental floss) but in fact it keeps them quiet and out of the fruit frame.
Hey, Sally….. you did this yourself by calling her "hoover" (as in a vaccum or inhaling everything)... gggg ... I always say, never name your Basenji something that they might take to heart
Hoover's mother is called 'Trouble' - I guess I'll never learn. :rolleyes:

HI Sally welcome to this forum :)

You are all being very kind but I am finding things very confusing. If I accept a friend (am told never to use inverted commas cos then the rest of the post gets wiped. . . ) and respond or post - I can never seem to get back to the thread.
I love your signature block, Esther. It is so very pertinent and exact.
There is another problem. Some of you I can ID cos of address or avatar but many of you I can't !!! :( so I can't even check if your dogs are up to date and I have PHOTOS in the d/b).
Any chance of a list of who is actually who ?
