Kugawa introduction

  • Hi folks:

    We are Sid and Sue Sher, located in Northern Virginia, near Manassas. We have 4 Basenjis, one male Travis (age 9) and 3 females named, Skye (age 9) (Travis's littermate), Sophie (age 5) and Seeker (almost 3 and littermate to the famed Redmund). We are Redmund's breeders.

    We show and sometimes lure course with our Basenjis but most of all they are our companions and buddies.

    We were just to a Google search of Redmund and stumbled on the forum. We only live about 30 minutes from Pearmund Cellars and, being retired, would love to meet other Basenji admirers at the winery, if you just let us know. We were just out there this week with Seeker and she and Redmund played like they have never been apart.

    When we visit Pearmund's Redmund will run out to our car and put his feet on the bumper to see if we've brought his sister. He remembers our car from visit to visit.

    We'll try to post some pictures in the future.

  • Welcome to the forum…......enjoy!

    Welcome! I – we -- hope to see photos soon!

    I wish I'd heard of Redmund -- is there a story behind his "fame".

    Our dogs also remember their breeder. Jazzy, in particular, can barely contain her joy when she sees Bryan. Sometimes I feel like she loves him best :( . Keoki is always happy to see him, also. It's amazing how well they remember and how close the bond remains.

  • WOOHOO… hey there Sid and Sue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome!!!!!

    Welcome Bryan. My husband and I met you last year at the EBC Specialty (my husband uses a wheelchair). At that time, we were basenji-less. We now have Kipawa, our 11 month old companion dog, that we were able to get from Therese and Kevin Leimback. He's our pride and joy. :)

    That was a great story. My 12 year old Welsh Corgi did the same thing a couple of years ago. The vet watched her but she wasn't sick. Didn't learn from experience either - thankfully I did. I just recently "rescued" a Basenji from a puppy mill. Her name is Glory - my 6 year old Granddaughter really liked the name. Glory is wonderful but I have never seen a puppy clutter up a room as fast as she can. My 4 year old Corgi hides under the computer desk when Glory goes on one of her "rampages."

    Congratulations on your new 2-legged pack member and how well Tucker has seemed to recover and accepted his new baby brother. Bless you and your family and again, congratulations. P/S….you're probably a step ahead of other newer moms. Having a Basenji in the home means you've already baby proofed the house.!!!! :)

    Hi Jill, You mentioned before that we probably live near each other. I just learned here where you aquired Duke! Wow! Was the other pup a black and white? I was initially attracted to the red and white which Joey is, but have seen some beautiful b/w. I doubt we would ever get another dog but it's fun to think what is might be like to have 2 Bs. Perhaps some day we could meet in a park to walk the dogs. Joey is 11 months and not neutered yet. He is tolerant of all dogs and aloof. We met his sister, Tory, who was taken at 8 wks and she is nasty! She snarled,"barked", etc at her brother and he just looked at her like she was crazy! We all laughed! Tory's mom is a friend of mine and how I found Joey. Send me a private email if you are interested. I'm sure I could learn a lot from you.
