Gift Exchange: Basenji Buddies Summer 2008

Basenji Talk
  • When I get mine, I'm going to post pics and details..

    I'm sending my gifts out tomorrow so my buddy should have it within the week!

    :)

  • I've got mine packaged and ready to send off tomorrow. Hope our buddy lets us know how they liked them! :D

  • I got mine back, and have to try again once I get the address fixed. It appears between the buddy and me, the address got jumbled.

  • I wait for one more little detail and send off by maybe Thursday. I am curious how long the post will take….

    Regards,
    Esther

  • I sent my package off yesterday.

  • We sent ours off today…should be to our B-buddy by Monday!

    Jackpot got his box of goodies in the mail yesterday~! He LOVES the zebra stuffed animal and goes crazy every time it makes the whinny noise! What a fun gift :-) He was also VERY excited about the red chicken stick things...boy does he love those, he could smell them through the box and kept pawing at the box before we got it opened! The collar is VERY cool. Thanks for all of the presents!

    I've attached a few pictures of Jackpot with his new favorite toy.

  • Awh awesome! I'm so glad Jackpot recieved his gift! I didn't have Jackpot, but it's good to see that our Basenji Buddy plan worked out!

    I sent my package out today, my b-buddy should be getting it sometime early next week!

  • Woo hoo!!!! Zaire FINALY finished her package for our Basenji buddy. I can't wait to brave to post office tomorrow and send it out….. This really was a GREAT idea.

    Just as a funny side note, When we went shopping I had Zaire with me. The woman at one of the little shops we went to (read as "I am blessed to live in Oregon where we have way too many cute little dog specialty shops") Fealt bad that Zaire wasn't getting any of the toys we were buying, so she gave zaire some lamb jerky so she wouldn't feel neglected. :D

  • Hahahaha, that's too funny; I bet Zaire was happy :)

    I understand this all too well. I work in a dog bakery and Shango comes to work with me. Everyone comes in and he plays the role so well- "Oh! He's not getting any treats? Can I buy one for him?" Hahahahhaha he's such a lucky dog on days we work!

  • I am sure he never gets any treats from his Daddy, haha!!!!

  • My basenji buddy gifts were shipped out today!

    As a side note, the place I shipped from wouldn't let me add any notes to the package. Sooo…I will just explain the gifts Dallas sent on here after my buddy has received them :) I don't want to ruin the surprise beforehand!

  • We got ours today. I got a Navy pen and bumper sticker, and Medjai got some great new nylabones, cookies, plush ball, and some other great odds and ends. There was also a great little booklet that came with the package written by Medjai's basenji buddy.

    I have found one problem with this package. It make mine seem so small, as I didn't send that much or with a cute little note, but Medjai's new buddy should love their package as much as Medjai loves those types of things.

  • Please post some photos!

  • Our package arrived the other day from Florida. In addition to some delicious goodies, EL D received a new collar (I especially like the little allegators) …

    Very snazzy new collar. Looks like El D knew he was looking good, he strikes quite a pose!

  • A great collar for a handosme boy!

    Wow! What a handsome dog!!

  • I got all my stuff packaged and ready to go..It'll be out in the mail tomorrow hopefully!

  • For Soulmate - just got my student loan money and research stipend today (I just love being a poor college student:) ). so please forgive me for the lateness of the package. I'll be sending it out end of this week.

  • don't worry, I am also a bit late. Beegin loves Post-its? interesting B-hobby…

    regards,
    esther

  • MacPack (Topper, Eddie & Nicky) got their gifts today, woo-hoo!
    Great stuffed toys (snatched from my hands immediately!), pizzle sticks,and really yummy dog treats…lots and lots to last a long time (or one day if Eddie had his druthers). And a treat for the humans too, thanks Wizard!

    This is fun!

    @weedtrek Possibly Basenji mix, nose looks a bit wider and the eyes are less oval. Could well be a Basenji mix though.

    Oh Barklessdog, you are a brave person. I must now stand with you in insane-solidarity and admit I bought it too. It is awful but when you get the line "we couldn't say goodbye so we took him home" part, you know you got to help support the woman. lol

    lol usually when you breed a bigger dog to a smaller dog the Male is the tiny one. Its just dangerous to do it the other way around. As far as DNA breed testing I would go for it if I could. But i am just interested in those kinds of tests. We offer them at our clinic but i haven't ever seen results for them.

    My Rue is pretty perfect. She is mixed with something (I don't know what) so she doesn't look like a real B… and she isn't interested in anything in our house (chewing wise), doesn't bolt out the door, and licks like CRAZY! She also doesn't really like to play with other dogs at the dog park, she just smells them, occasionally chases them, then comes back and lays down by me (EXERCISE DANG IT!). The only normal B behaviors that I see in her are the little noises that she makes (she makes a lot of them for different reasons) and her BAROOOOOOO (which is fitting because we named her Rue before we even knew she was a Basenji) and it seems like she is stubborn about sitting. It's like she is saying, "yeah I know you want me to sit, but first I'm gonna spin around in a circle. Then maybe I'll sit if I feel like it." Haha! She is a character!
