Hello Marian,
Welcome. What a happy home it must be.
We are Kees-Jan and Anne-Marie from Marken, north of Amsterdam. Where do you live? Maybe we can walk together some time? Also check http://www.basenji-club.nl/ for basenji walks.
We have two daughters from Abotere Khamau, Lela and Binti (2,5 and 3,5 years old) - our first dogs, and we recognize a lot that you wrote.
People warned us about getting a basenji, but we have not been happier since they took over our house and hearts. Lela came with us as a pup (enought to keep you busy) and Binti joined half a year later - it took her around 1,5 years to really settle.
Here's a picture with their big mama friend Kiko the Akita https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/dNOYjJPSlhUGbZK3LZxvbwxZLf3J_PvRjNp46MdVlt4?feat=directlink
We hope to meet all of you soon.

🥰 Adorable- thanks for sharing.

Great pictures! It's worth mentioning that you can edit posts that don't work out to your satisfaction, rather than starting a new one...
-
@kristiesad What a couple of awesome looking Basenjis! Yeah, you're hooked. Good for you!
-
I keep begging my husband for a third so i can get that tshirt that says "I was normal 3 basenjis ago."

@kristiesad I think Prince is going to dig having a little buddy to hang with and punk. My two have squabbles every now and again, but they are inseparable. If one leaves the other goes nuts till we return. Then more squabbles. It's funny though... watching how they sort things out helps me know how to communicate better with them when I need them to do something. Pack behavior and all that. fun stuff. Oh, and I've also learned that having two helps them too. They watch each other work us. When one sees the other behaving badly and getting what they want... yeah... now I have two doing it. You're gonna have a so much fun! I mean that sincerely. Two is very much fun!

@kristiesad eight was a good number to have around. The pack fluctuated a bit after years of 8. Down one, up two, and so on till now just 2 young boys. But it's been great !
You have a long way to go yet -

@zande we had 6 samoyeds growing up but 2 acres fenced in for them to run around! If I had a farm, then for sure
-
Mku is permanently in love with three elderly female samoyeds he meets in the woods from time to time ! Not sure what a Sammy x Bas would look like ! But they are old, spayed and too tall for him ! And anyway, this is not the rutting season so his interest has waned -

@zande aww that is so sweet!!

@kristiesad So cute!!
