    Hi everyone! It is official! Keoki is a permanent part of our family. We are so excited to have him with us. The funny part was after we made our decision last night it was like a switch flipped between him and Kona. The slept curled up to each other last night, and shared the bed in the sunny spot this morning. Before that they slept on opposite ends of the bed and would not share the sunny spot with each other. As soon as I can figure out how, I will post some pictures and change my avatar.

    Awesome news. I am so happy for Kona and y'all, and of course for Keoki. Very good news.

    I always thought they were telepathic!

    Seriously, he may have picked up on your feelings of uncertainty, then felt the switch to "he's ours" last night.

    I am doing a genuine happy dance for you and Keoki and Kona too! If I could baroo with joy like my pup does, I would. You will have to settle for the dancing, though, lol.

    It is so great to hear these happy endings. Thanks so much to you for opening your hearts and home.

    I swear they can read our minds - wonderful that Keoki and Kona are forever friends - even the names sound like they were meant to be together. So glad you took him in.

    I agree with Shaye'sMom, they sound like they were meant for each other…even their names.

    Lisa brought Kona and Keoki to the dog park today to meet the gang! He is a sweetheart, Lisa and her husband just adore him and you can tell Keoki is a very happy boy. He is so mellow, it was like he had known everyone forever, not a single ridgeback or grumble from anyone, just nose-sniff-hellos. He and Kona are cute together, he is tolerant of her puppy-antics. Beckaboo, you can relax in the knowledge that Keoki is in a wonderful and very loving forever-home now. It was really a thrill to meet him.

    Tegs, Sorry that it took me a while to reply. I would love to trade pics with you. Everyday that passes, I am reminded of the Basenji Code. She is a bolter, I am happy that we have a storm door to help.

    @BasenjiDiva: Wow, Vicki. Although we are down in Savannah, we also have a place up between Young Harris and Hiawassee. Maybe we could meet up sometime. Don't know how our little female hellion would do with your female though. Our male would probably be okay. Also would love to hear more about your petsitting business that you mentioned. When we are up there we would sometimes like to be able to leave for awhile without worrying about the beasties. Pat Hello - Yes, I would love to meet you when you visit your vacation home. razzcinn at aol dot com. I have two female Basenjis that are doing well together, but I, too, would be concerned about another female Basenji. Monday, I'm interviewing a retired older lady who pet sits and she will stay in the home all day and night, if needed. I need a dependable sitter, too. I often babysit for people who would like to go to dinner and get away w/o worrying about their pets. If I can't help you, I'm certain I can recommend several other dependable sitters.
