  • What a pretty boy!!!

    He is growing too fast!

    And those birds… huh?????
    (it's a joke right? :D)

  • He looks wonderful and happy!!!

  • Hello Fran! Kipawa is looking amazing. He was very lucky to find you…or you were lucky to find him...or you both were lucky to find each other. Ha Ha! Either way you three are a happy family. Eventually I will have to post some new pics of his sis...she has started to look less skinny but she will obviously never be a real big girl (okay with us!). BTW, obedience class is going okay...baby steps...very small and slow baby steps:)

  • @sharronhurlbut:

    Oh, Fran, doesn't he just make you happy when you are with him! I know I enjoy my 3 b's so much. Can't wait to see him and you again in Aug.

    Oh yes, Sharron. When I am walking him, I must look like a total nut-bar, because I have this perma-grin/smile on my face. I also talk to him all the time on walks. So one of these days I won't be surprised if I am met by men in green suits holding a white jacket for me. :o

    Definitely, but it was so funny to come across them. I just kept on wondering who went through all the effort to put them there. On the other hand, they serve as a land mark at those park trails, because you can easily get twisted around and forget where you are.

    Walter, we would LOVE to see some pics of Scarlett. Little Miss 'Skah-lett'. Not a problem that she will be smaller because you can pick her up easier! :) My boy feels like a ton of bricks when I pick him up. Regarding classes, small and slow baby steps are acceptable progress. So don't worry. Kipawa still needs more work on being in control on the leash. We want to take him to the rehab hospital Darrel mentors at, but can't quite do it yet - he would be pulling me all over the slick floors. I may just try an Easy Walk harness.

    He is great off leash (in safe off leash parks), always comes back when called. But the tugging gets a little tiring sometimes. I know he is testing me. He'd love to be boss, but that isn't going to happen!

  • I work in a doctor's office and Scarlett comes with me on occasion…the patients love her, I'm sure Kipawa will be a hit as well. Scarlett tugs on the leash a bit too but her heeling is getting better. But when she tugs it is nothing compared to Mr. Tank:)

  • He is looking so grown up! And handsome, too!

  • "Pull" you off your feet, isn't that part of a Basenjis middle name?

  • He's growing from a lovely puppy into a very handsome yung man. A credit to you Fran!

    Would it not be better to have just started a new thread, Linda?

    Usually we put presents under the tree, but I just don't dare since getting the B girls! Presents all hide in closets until it's actually time for them to be opened. We always wrap special treats for the girls and the cat as well, so they can tear something open to get to the goodies. Then the treats keep them busy while everyone else is unwrapping. The great-grandkids have been warned NOT to leave their stuff on the floor or where they look like dog toys on tables, etc.

    I'm glad Shaye is OK, that gave us a scare. It was such a pleasure to meet you and your husband and the darling Shaye. She is such a cute little puppy, so energetic and fearless! Shaye's mom brought Shaye to the dog park yesterday to meet up with us. There was a boy pup her age, who she pretty much ignored, and 12 other basenjis. She was a little tornado, racing about and teasing the big dogs. She ignored some warning growls and got nailed, but thankfully not serious. Shaye was back running in 10 minutes. She is a really pretty and sweet little girl, way more energy than I could manage! So we had 6 basenjis from Forum, John's Bodhi and Savanna, my 3 and Shaye…how cool is that????
