Getting a new pal for my B's!!

Basenji Talk
  • We have been looking for a nice small outside dog for our acreage and we have finally settled for a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling retriever (over the Finnish Lapphund). I can't wait to get him. He is a 3.5 year old and apparently has a wonderful doggy temperment (which will be wonderful if he can get along with my female B). He is coming from a breeder in B.C. named Tollchester Kennels. I have met a couple of her dogs before and really like them, as I was looking at breeders closer to me I still feel this is a better fit for us. My husband may do the 12 hour drive to pick him up on Saturday. I am really excited to see how he is going to play with my B's!

  • Congratulations on the new addition :)

    Tollers are wonderful little dogs!

  • I know it's not another Basenji, but I did sign up for BRAT and I hope I can help out that way. But we are looking for an outside dog for our acreage.

  • Congrats! I think the Tollers are really nice looking dogs.

  • There's one that comes to our dog park named Rocket and he's very fast and focused on retrieving. I have yet to see him play with the other dogs. He's never mean or anything just not interested in play.

    I'm afraid If I do decide to get another I won't have a chance to introduce them beforehand as it Will probably be a puppy I bring from the US.. I doubt there will be a problem since she will be a young puppy…

    EL D will occasionally sleep partly on the pillow (when I'm not in the bed). Usually though he sleeps totally under the covers (actually his own sleeping bag on the bed).

    We use the seat belt/harness type for both of them. They're in the back and stay put. They just curl up and sleep.
  • Who gets "groomed" by their "B's"?

    If I put my arm around Nika when we're on the couch and my hand rests on her leg, she'll lick my hand for 10 minutes.

    It is amazing how smart they are, but I worry that not only could the house have burned, but they may have been hurt as well. Anyone of us who has kids knows it can take just a millisecond. (I guess we all have our B kids.) When things are just too quiet, I go hunting too!
