Bragging about Mirtillo

Basenji Showing
  • Tillo is maturing beautifully. Congratulations on the nice win and lovely judge's report.

  • Congratulations!! Well deserved for a handsome man and such a dedicated 'mom'.

    Next time they want to see more movement, have a friend drop a squirrel in the ring.:eek: That will separate the men from the boys in the movement catagory:D

    Hahahaa.. just imagine what will happen then… :D :D
    Not only Tillo will fly through the ring... all b's will.. and some podencos... etc :D

    I think it would be a lot of fun ;)

    And thank you for your compliment :)

  • He is a beautiful boy!! Congrats! I love the pictures. Is his coat that deep red as it looks in the pictures?

    Thank you :)
    And yes, his coat is quite red. Here you can see his 'real' colour: http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?t=4714

  • Yesterday evening I received a call from the breeder : our puppy is on his way !!
    They did an echography as well as a bloodtest which were both affirmative: 4 puppy's are in the making. :D
    30 more days to go:).

    I'll keep you all informed.

    SPANNEND!!!! :D

    You should start a thread, so we can all follow the news with date of birth.. pics.. and pics.. and euh.. pics :D :D

  • Huge congrats!!!

  • :D Sure, Janneke, I'll start a thread as soon as I get some news.
    As for the name of our boy: the breeder asked us, with respect to the breed, to choose an African/Egyptian (official) name for our pup, beginning with an "H". We've chosen "Hanubis Du Vieux Bry" aka "Bendji" as his call name.
    Hanubis referring to Anubis, the Greek name for a jackal-headed god associated with mummification and the afterlife in Egyptian mythology, and Bendji, the name of a hamlet in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
    Hope you guys like it too :rolleyes:

  • @Janneke:

    We had a show today and Mirtillo did wonderful. It was his first time in this class (youth: 9-18 months) and he became first with an 'excellent'. He also got his first point (out of three) for his Dutch youth championship. And he was second best male with a reserve CAC.. but because male nr 1 is a Dutch Champion already, it counts for a CAC. So he also has his first point (out of four) for his Dutch Championship! :D

    I think, the best male was beautiful :D

    The youth boys both did great!

    @renaultf1: Actually, the Raven that BasenjiBoy owns is not THIS Raven. This Raven (Eldorado n Akuaba's Nevermore) is owned by Andrew Sawler (same person that owns Eldorado Echo of an Icon…"Jimmy"). BasenjiBoy does have one of the Never pups, though...Rylee (Eldorado n Akuaba's Never Been Kissed)...a red girl. My understanding was that Rylee was at the National but misbehaved on the table... Ooops….that is right, of course! Their new girl IS Rylee...sorry about that!

    @Janneke: I finally have his judge report. I tried to translate it to proper English.. but please correct me if I'm wrong.. Young breed representative of four months. Square construction. Elegant expression. Beautiful topline and outline. Splendid head with beautiful wrinkle formation. Small dark eye. Beautiful straight legs, bit stronger angulation on the hindquarter. Already beautiful forechest. Very well condition with supple skin. Moves gracefully and light-footedly. Already excellent show qualities. Beautiful presentation. I love how your shows have written critiques. This is not done at AKC dog shows so you never really know what the judge thinks about your dog unless they happen to make a comment.
