Crate for sleeping at night should always be in the bedroom with their people. Should be close to the bed. I use wire crates and typically have more than one Basenji so the crates are all next to each other, but still in the room we sleep in. If an only Basenji should be next to your bed that that your pup knows where you are and you can dangle your fingers in the crate to assure them you are there. And cover the crate to make it more den like. Agree with a "crate buddy" stuffed big toy... and this crate buddy should only be used in the crate at night. I have never had any of my Basenjis sleep in any other room other then the one I sleep in. I also agree that in a car any dog should be confined in a crate, period.

About pronouncing names incorrectly, I do have problems with people saying my dogs names properly, too :p
Saba, is Sarbah, and perhaps thats how I should have spelt it to start with… He usually gets Sabre :eek:
Ochre is pronounced O'Car, but there have been so many different pronunciations for her name, I cant begin to write them all down :rolleyes:. Again, I should have spelt it that way, so Im guessing its my fault really :o.
Vanda, I dont think you could get it wrong, I hope ;).
Sorry to the OP, I have gone a touch OT here o:o

You might have to wait a bit and see what the personality is like first too - Lily might not work for a strong alpha female but be perfect for a cuddler.

The strong alpha female could be Tigerlily. I knew a brindle pit type dog named Tigerlily - sweet little dog

We have a B breeder, here in Aus, who called her little bitch Leeloo, and her reg name is –------- Fifth Element :). Is your little girl pronounced Leeloo, or Lie loo ???
it is pronounced lee loo, spelt lilu though.

I like that, Lilu, the way you pronounce it..its very nice and different too.
-
I guess I spent too much time in Japan. I never thought of it pronounced any other way.

I think my favorite time is when she snuggles her little head into my arm when she is sleeping on the couch next to me, she did this on the ride home the first day we got her and that was all it took for me to fall in love with her.

That's so nice she all ready loved you and was ready for her new home. You sound like a nice puppy parent. They are special.
