    Sunny-Blue is a 15 month old rescue I got last December. They told me she is Jack Russell/chihuahua mix but she has Basenji ears and deer like shape. When my friend asked me about her curled tail last Friday I went online to find out what dogs have them. Sure enough it was the Basenji. The more I learned about the Basenji I realized she is one. She howls, doesn't like water, has a little attitude and a deer like shape. Plus she runs at top speed. She is easy to train but has to think twice before she does anything you ask her. She LOVES to play and will run a game on you if you let her. She is such a joy. (Yes, I have a sense of humor). I feel blessed to have her and am not surprised she is of a special breed.

    It took our two a little less than 2 weeks or so until Kaia was really cuddling up to Loki. Of course, as the girl she was determined to get her way no matter what! I think it took about a month until he started to groom her, which he still does now and almost a year for her to start grooming him which doesn't happen too often. I'm pretty sure she thinks that she's the princess and should be pampered, not doing the pampering. Definitely keep a camera nearby, it's always when I don't have one that I need it the most.

    Cute photo! Must be nice to have a rainy day - my Zuki demands her walk 365 days a year rain, sleet or blizzard. She is just as dedicated as the mailman. :)

    If we'd all compare notes I'm sure we can definitely plot the correlations on their traits :D My two have Af in them too & yet so dramatically different… C3PO-he's my cuddle bug...loves attention loves to be in the same room & loves to be petted BUT only by his humans :) strangers he'll investigate & if he likes you he'll ALWAYS like you but if he doesn't he'll ALWAYS growl at you. The critters need to be near him within reach for him to go nuts & try to hunt it...like walking on a leash & dumb squirrel just stood in his path so C3PO just SNATCHED him up by this tail :eek: :eek: Topaz-a lot more indpendent! She'll snuggle with you when she wants to at the right time & place. She is the house HUNTER..she'll hunt anything that moves & she's quick too! My little girl WILL play fetch...but with herself LOL :D :D yup she picks up the tennis ball does a :happy dance: on her hind legs carries it up to the couch nuzzles it & throws it off & she goes to retrieve it! :D Both HATE water (she more than him) :mad:

    Haha, yes I get it! He is so funny. He also has my trick figured out where I step outside to make him go out and then step back in real quick. He doesn't like that and can't be fooled now. Smarty.
