Isabelle's puppy pics

Basenji Talk
  • The little un's are growing quickly. Both of the tri's are little terrors. They play hard, bite hard, and climb up the x-pen like little monkies. We had them all outside the other day to play, and they were hiding, ambushing, charging, fighting, and in general just having one heck of a wild party. They're so much fun to watch.

    Now time for a confession. There's a little red/white runt, that reminds me so much of my first B, that it's uncanny. And yes, he is named after him now too. And yes, he's the one that gets "happy ears" when we come home. And he wags his little tail, and he looks like he's going to start barooing soon…He's as fiesty as they come, and his antics are hysterical. When everybody lays down to go to sleep, he'll step back from the group, play bow, take off running towards them, and body slam into the pile. Then he sleeps. He play bows all the time, and when he's ignored by his siblings he'll bite 'em on the butt. He's clearly become everybody's favorite, and I think he knows it.

    ugh...I will not keep him...I will not keep him...I will not keep him...I have self control...:confused: :o :o

    My family failed fostering 101, about 5 years ago. We're clearly now working on our fostering PHD, and we've done well with a lot of really excellent dogs. It's really not that hard to foster and send them on their way anymore...but, little Mowgli is going to be a challenge.

    The most important rule in Rescue is: Do not keep your rescues! If you do, then you can't rescue as many. I'm going to have to keep reminding myself that on this one.

  • Nice fat puppies-just what I like. And, aren't all tri's little buggers?? or, is it just me?

    You know, you may be onto something. I definitely see differences between the tri-female, and all the other females.

  • yeah, a lot of long time basenji people will tell you that they are called "tris" because they are particularly "try-ing" ;)

  • They are precious!! I vote you KEEP the puppy!!!! :D

  • Actually he's SOOOO adorable I say you give him to MEEEEE :D :D :D

    uuuh….my husband would have a cow LOL :D

  • Tri's are wicked… but in a good way... LOL

  • I agree with quercus your gonna keep him, your gonna keep him. :)

    I had never heard that, but it certainly makes sense now!:rolleyes:

    Vegas, I don't know how you send ANY of them away!! I'd be like the lady with millions of cats…just millions of Basenjis!:eek:

    Seriously, you're a gem to do all of that rescue work! Keep those pictures coming!;)

  • What sweeeeeet babies!! I would HAVE to keep the pup…

  • It's a sure fire sign that you have to keep him. :)
    They are all such beautiful babies!!!!

  • Oh, my! What a bunch of adorable pups!

    Do ya think I'd get life if I off'd my DH because he wouldn't let me have just one more? :) Just kidding…I think :p

    You can find a lot of puppy collars at thrift shops for pretty cheap - would never pay full price for one. I'm getting mine at 14 weeks and was told that 8-12 inches was what was being used - then at 4- 6 months graduate to 10-14 inch collar.

    @Kananga: Sounds like a vet worth going to… :D Yes, when they show off a Basenji like that!!! Most people have never even heard of one….from my experience anyway...
  • 2 B's or NOT 2 B's…. That is the question!!!!

    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…

    @MacPack: Congratulations to you and Zoni! I love the description of the down, I remember Topper in puppy & adult obedience class, doing the same thing. The instructor would laugh and say that "down" was supposed to be a submissive posture, but he "attacked the earth" and was definitely NOT submissive…but got the job done HIS way! Basenjis need instructors with a sense of humor! Good thing Zoni had one like that too. Anne Thanks…and yes they have a good sense of humor and love Zoni too. I wish the conformation class teacher did though, but then I'm just not going to that one for now....
