    Yes - Whether your 1 + 2 make you crazy or not, you are a …very ...very ...brave soul. Hat's off to you for opening your home to two in need. ;)


  • Congratulations! Can't wait to hear how they all do once they get used to eachother. I can't look at the BRAT website very often, otherwise I would have a pack of dogs.:p

    Yes I have that problem but these two just really tugged at my heart. They are a little older 6 & 8 so not as many people would be willing to adopt them especially together. We are fine with it. They love kids and we have two so we're hoping they fit in perfect. We're just having a hard time being patient.


  • Do the two females get along?


  • Congrats!!!
    And you are especially brave adding 2 girls :eek: .


  • Congratulations!!!! We just added our third a few weeks ago and it is a little crazier in our house than we had expected! BUT,,,,,,,it is well worth it when all three are snuggled up to us in bed!!


  • @Basenji_Boy:

    Do the two females get along?

    They've been together forever and could only be adopted as a pair so I would say yes…..I guess I'll find out if they have any issues with each other once there here. They've been crated together while waiting to be adopted so I got them one big crate to share hopefully that works and keeps their stress down.


  • Alrighy huge congrats!!!


  • I would love to see a photo of all 3 of your b's…once they all get settled.
    Thanks for taking these 2 into your home.
    Rescue needs folks like you.
    Hugs


  • Wow! That's great! Congrats…and looking forward to the pictures!

    @MacPack: I'll check it out. My DH Donald takes most of our photos and some sites claim ownership of all photos posted there so he is leery. Sounds easy enough, if I can e-mail photos there, then figure how to get them from there to here, haha! This site actually does that, but since the photos aren't actually physically posted here (uploaded to this site) , but are hot linked, I am not sure how they can be "claimed". That clause gave me pause as well…....and apparently also applies to what is written. It would make for an interesting legal case, for sure, if someone inadvertently posted copywritten material. Of for that matter if the material was posted elsewhere without attribution or with false attribution. BTW, from Photobucket's terms & conditions: "You retain all your rights to any Content you submit, post or display on or while using Photobucket. This means that YOU own ALL the Content you post"
  • 2 B's or NOT 2 B's…. That is the question!!!!

    I'm afraid If I do decide to get another I won't have a chance to introduce them beforehand as it Will probably be a puppy I bring from the US.. I doubt there will be a problem since she will be a young puppy…

    Nemo's on to something. A good B&W could pull that off without an accomplice though.

    I have a very good friend at work who lives somewhat in the country and has lots of what she calls "barn cats" around her. When she first came to work at my office she had 2 cats, hers and her mother's, who had come to live with her, since then she has "adopted" 7 more from her yard. She started feeling sorry for them and started putting food out there for them. Her husband has finally said "no more". She is a "good" cat owner as she has spayed/neutered each cat she has adopted and keeps them inside. Now she has become involved in rescue of the rest. If she thinks it doesn't really have a home she will try to catch it, take it to the vet for a check and spaying/neutering, try to get it socialized with humans and other cats, then try to get it adopted out. She does all this with a little bit of help from a rescue organization and a break on price from her vet but she is still out of pocket quite a bit and I respect her all the more for her commitment to the betterment of the lives of these forgotten animals.:) We all wish there were more responsible cat, and dog owners, for that matter, out there like her.

    at the dog park occasionally you will see a dog fight in the larger breeds, they typically play rougher…..more chomping action vs. basenji boxing.... the typical dog park protocol is pulling them apart, or the safe route is the bucket of water....total distraction! can you imagine doing that with basenjis.....screams like little girls!! LOL
