Hey Borbasuk! Glad you could join us! Looking forward to hearing about your adventures with your kids. I remember seeing Bryn as a young man before he left and he sure looked lovely. Now I get to see his son David all the time, Sharon's just about an hour away. And just met another, Arrow, a few weeks ago! Wow, you can certainly see daddy in them. :)

BTW, I wanted to send along a collective congrats to you on all that you've accomplished with Bryn and his kids. I keep meaning to write, but time always escapes me. So a big hearty congrats to you and Bryn! And looking forward to hearing more about Ezri and Keiko. :)

Hi and welcome to the forum. I'm sure you'll find it very interesting and also have a wealth of expertize to contribute to it. :)

[Borbasuk]

Thank you all for the welcome. And congrats on your new baby Nobarkus, how exciting.
I think my teenage Basenjis would be sniggering quietly at any delusions of expertise :)

[Borbasuk]

Kiroja, thanks for your kind words: David looks like a super boy from his pics and I was very happy with Arrow when I saw him on the Texas DVD; he's a real chip off the block, though he clearly gets his brains from his mother! Bryn's quite the couch potato these days and happy to leave the showgoing to the youngsters.

Hi, nice to see more UK members too. As a new Basenji owner, i've found the forum really useful. Loads of information, advice, photos and stories which i think is fab.

Hello from Shelley,
i'm new to this forum but enjoying every minuit spent here. Four Basenjis, lucky you !

[Buddys Pal]

Yes, welcome, you and your family! Do I dare imagine the world you share with 4? and two young ones…..bet it has gotta be fun! Do they mind you (most) of the time? How did you keep the attention span at a show?????? Or at the least, what did you find the best behavior reward to get what YOU wanted??

[Buddys Pal]

Wow, how did you capture that photo of Bella at a yodel!? great!

[Borbasuk]

Well, it's been quite a fun ride with the girls; it's not the first time I've had two the same age and gender, but it seems harder work this time, probably because I am older! Certainly it's been a bit of a disadvantage in the ring because of having to rush from bench to ring and back again and it can be a bit harder to get them to settle, Ezri is still inclined to ring antics on the move. I've done this before too, with Ruby and my Kiri who I lost in 2006, but they were four years apart in age. I'm very grateful to the people who have been roped in to holding one for me at ringside!
When it gets a bit hectic and they are running rings round me I just take a deep breath and remind myself that I'm blessed to have them. If that doesn't work a stiff G&T usually does the trick.

[Basenjimamma]

Good for you, GT's are good.
