    Lovely pictures - Maya is obviously glad to have Deedee back. You're not the only ones with deep snow, Scott, here we're snowed in yet again! (we're not a million miles away from Jess either) All the Basenjis (including Jewel(16+) are enjoying it but not so sure about us - clambering up and down hills searching for missing sheep is not much fun!!! Our BC (Fern) our sort of sheep dog is more interested in playing chase and catch the snowflakes so we're on our own!!!

    @Kipawa: Jess, I don't think Maya has a problem with weight, either light or too heavy. She looks very good. As long as you know she is eating wel, is healthy and is exercising, don't be too concerned. I realize their IS a standard for the basenji, but they are living beings that can't always match up to a picture in a book. She is a very, very good eater. She LOVES her food and its often more of a problem to keep her weight down as she will steal anything she can get hold of :rolleyes: Since having a basenji I have learned that they are worse thievess even than labradors!! :eek: I was defrosting a chicken last week and noticed it had disappeared from the kitchen worktop.. where do i find it? Outside with Maya and she'd eaten about half of it :rolleyes: She is a pig!! I walk her for about 2 hours a day now, most of which is offlead running (we walk to the horses fields and back each evening so she spends a good hour running around the fields and woods and farmland!) so she has quite a lot of exercise compared to some im sure, but if she didnt have that she would be a little porker cos she eats a lot :p But at the same time, cos she has so much time running around burning calories I do need to make sure her food intake is high enough. She is definately the highest energy dog i've ever had :eek:

    Thanks. I am lucky that we have so many good photographers that come out to our lure trials and capture the dogs doing what they love. I also just have to brag that Rio, the red and white in the yellow jacket, earned Best of Breed at the Northern California Whippet Club ASFA trial this Monday. I am so proud of her.
