Hi, We have a 12 week old pup. (got her at 9 weeks). Maya is a tri-colour. We are very happy with her. She's a bundle of energy and fun. Don't know what else to say right now but hope to get to know some other people and read lots of advice.
@elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch.
If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !
Most people incorrectly use the terms dominant and dominance with regard to dogs. Here is a good blog post by Dr. Sophia Yin on the topic.

Welcome and congratulations! I have two BRATS myself, and a third basenji as well. So beware, they ARE like potato chips (You can't have just one)
I love her name, she is gorgeous. Can't wait to hear all about her Homecoming!
