Hi, I'm Amber

Member Introductions
  • Hello Everyone! My name is Amber and I have recently been owned by a basenji named Paso. I grew up with Basenjis and just adore them. Paso came from Bryan and Laurie at Jumoke. He is a 2 and a half year old finished champion. My husband is active duty navy, I grew up in Alabama. My mother lives there with her basenji duo (a tri colored brother/sister pair of finished "Undercover" champs). I have a three year old son and am currently in college to be an RN. I am looking forward to being a part of the basenji community.

  • Hi Amber! Welcome to Basenji Forums!

    Do you have any photos of Paso? It would be great if you can post them in the Show Off Your Dog thread.

    Let us know if you need help posting your photos.

  • Welcome Amber!
    Hey! That's my girl's daddy you've got there! I am looking forward to us being able to get them together sometime.

    Hi Amber
    Welcome! My name is Angee from Brisbane Australia and my husband Lance and I have just been adopted by a 2 month old Basenji we call Bandit and already he's living up to the name!

    We also have a 2 year old Lowchen we call Alfie the clown and he's being climbed over and bitten by the new arrival - Alfie is taking it all in his stride and has begun playing with Bandit.

    All the best
    Ang

    Hello again after a very long absence!! My 'chewing' boy now leaves his coat alone - his Mum (now spayed) wears his old hand-me-down coat, and he has his onw snazzy camoflage polar fleece jumper that I made. Can't possibly have it off thankyou!! His half-brother Jerry had his first coat on today - also a 'chewer' - we'll see if it is still on in the morning. Jerry's sister Chloe also got one on today after I managed to keep her still enough to pull it over her head!! Jerry is NOT allowed to touch it thank you!! @kiwir: The thing that annoys me is that he always wore a coat as a puppy - he's just turned 12 months now. But boys being boys, in the last few weeks he thought Mum had come back in season (she hadn't!) so in frustration he gradually chewed her coat - from the back forward - left the polar fleece around her shoulders and chest and neck. And the silly girl just let him - looking at him indulgently - "My boy" I tried making them without the polar neck (designed to stop chewing of the front) - or reinforced them with thick cotton tape - and that lasted a little longer. Now he just looks at me with those eyes saying "Hell, I'm freezing Mum!"

    Thanks for your warm welcome! I'll ask my daughter to take some digital pics of our Sheba to post! We'll try to get some good forehead wrinkles – when she's got those terrific ears up and forward! Her tail's straight and droopy, though -- that's where the "mix" really shows! So far -- she sometimes reminds me very much of a cat (I know far more about kitties than basenjis.) Even the way she bats a tennis ball about -- "soccer-style" -- is quite feline. But she is NOT aloof. She's definitely a people pooch! A snuggler. I am delighted she's joined the family. Will post pics soon, I hope -- Thanks -- Sheba's Mom
