I MISS YOU GUYS!!!! Meet Callie

  • First Basenji's

    They are very pretty!


  • Wow what a story…

    Glad to hear you are okay and congrats on the new pup :D Great photo!

    Hope we see you soon... (just get a new computer! :))

  • Houston

    Great story, happy ending, cute picture. They look happy together..(as-long-as-you-don't-touch-me, look-at-me, or-my-mommy-well your mommy too, but mine more, smell-me, or sleep-where-I-want-to-sleep)..Happy together..


  • I love the story Carrie, especialy the bits about trying to resist getting another Dog :D
    Glad things have worked out for you all.


  • Welcome back! I loved your story about Callie and Lola. Glad everything's working out so well. Funny how things happen when you're "not getting a dog". I had the same thoughts when Duke came home with me. ;)

    Exactly! Very happy ;)

    @Nemo:

    Hey Carrie. It was cool to meet you in person! Did you see the pics of you in Terry Fielder's photo albums from National? She was taking pics over the shoulder of the show photographer. There are some good ones of you and Callie.

    Nice to meet you too!!! Love your girl! Yes, saw the pictures. Callie looks good, but I could use a little work haha.

    Thanks for all the welcomes & well wishes! And yes, it is very funny what happens when you aren't getting a dog. Since we chose Booger & Lola without their input, its fun to have a basenji that has chosen me instead!
    Here are a few more cute pictures of the girls.
    Lola being lazy, the two of them posing (I swear they do this a lot without me asking or planning or using treats… they just seem to be so different but of such a similar mindset much of the time), getting ready to run at Nationals, and Callie at our first show!!
    There is also a really really cute picture of them here. We went to a local shelter charity event & a professional photographer who specializes in animals took a bunch of pictures. She got a great one of the girls about 1/3 of the way down the page, in the Dog Days of Summer post. http://www.leesiateh.com/blog/?paged=2

  • Houston

  • Thanks for sharing your story Carrie, it was great meeting you! Looking forward to seeing you guys again sometime. Lola and Callie look like a perfect fit. :)


  • Hey Carrie!! It's great to have you back. Loved the story.

    It's that time of year again. You should bring your "new coats" thread BTTT.

    Dawn, Katie, and Tyler:)


  • Welcome back and congrats on your new pup! There are lots of good things out there just waiting to happen!

  • Houston

    It's that time of year again. You should bring your "new coats" thread BTTT.

    I Agree..
    I wasn't here for the first one, but saw it on some old threads..awesome duds..Otis would love one..;)


  • Well, I'm totally confused!
    Andrew and Carrie? A couple, I presume, that broke up? One has one dog and the other has the other, but Carrie posts under Andrew?

    I've been wondering what happened to the Andrew in Atlanta who use to post.

    I know you are in Atlanta and would love to know more about agility training and lure crossing in the Atlanta area. If you recall, I'm in Blairsville, GA.

    Great pictures and beautiful Basenjis.


  • Welcome back, Carrie! And Welcome home, Callie!

    (hey, it rhymes!!! :D:D:D)


  • Very nice basenjis indeed! So wonderful to hear they get along quite well.

    @tanza Oh yes. I give her 1/3 cup blue buffalo puppy kibble, 1 tbsp wet blue buffalo puppy, 1 tbsp yogurt or cottage cheese, (alternating) and if I se any sign of dandruf or dryness in her fur, I also add in a few drops of olive oil. I have chicken and vegetables every night, and I've been preparing my chicken unseasoned since I got rogue so I can use it for training on occasion, so sometimes if she's being stubborn I'll bury some tiny shreds of chicken in her food to get her to eat, or sometimes I'll do the same thing with some other high value treats. I don't feed her in a crate, but I've moved her bowl into my room so she's lessdistracted at mealtime, and she has a safe place to eat when my niece comes over. Rogue plays nice with my niece outside, but indoors, she's kind of a really big squeeky toy, so we have to watch her constantly. I also, on the rarest occasions, will give her a little tiny pinch of american, or sharp cheddar cheese. That seems to get her really excited. She doesn't get excited about cottage cheese, but american or sharp cheddar? She goes nuts. fagedabodit. And she get chews and kongs in the crate, but never meals. And she doesn't spend much time in there anymore since she's been house trained. She just sleeps in my bed. In fact, she's passed out next to me right now.

    @tanza: And he still loves (or I should say) his Big Sister, Crystal still thinks he is pretty cool… LOL.... Thanks Andrea.... Andrea?... will you make the Nationals? I am really hoping to. My tentative plan right now is to fly out with just Ethan, and maybe one dog. Then Ethan can stay with my sister in Portola Valley, and I can just enjoy the National :) Tim has offered to stay home with the dogs, to save money…but he may change his mind by the time it actually rolls around :) We had originally planned to drive across with ALL dogs, and Ethan...and quickly realized that kind of roadtrip with a three year old would be insanity!
