I think Joan said she has talked to you before. We have 1 10 year old female from Indiana and I think a brother of your younger one - Bourbon who is also 1.5. Joan takes them to Snyder almost daily so if you plan to be there let us know when.
It'll be a lil while now til I can make it. Kismet caught kennel cough somewhere (vet says Petsmart, dog park or doggie daycare) 😞 Plus who knows when I'll get a day off on a Sunday at my new job. Hopefully she'll be better by next month and I can start bringing her out again. 🙂
I'm not in that exact area but the Basenji Club of Southern Wisconsin(http://www.bcosw.org/) has several activities every year not far from you, one of which is a Fun Day where everyone can bring there dog for fun and games in Rockford, IL. It's on July 11 this year. You should consider joining the club. They haven't updated the calendar on the website yet but if you look in the latest newsletter it has a list of most of the dates for the year. There is also a Chicagoland Basenji Club but I am not as familiar with that one.
