  • @jessi76:

    welcome! out of curiousity, where'd you purchase your new B from? breeder? shelter? rescue? how old is Guru? can't wait to see pics of your new addition! again, welcome!

    Thank You :) I purchase Guru from Devils Peak Basenjis in Salem Oregon. He is 14 weeks old.

    Here is a photo I was sent of him:

    I cant wait to play with him. Isn't he adorable

  • oh my gosh, he IS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!! you'll have to post many more pics, as he grows! congrats!

  • What a doll! You will find alot of great information here.

  • How cute!!! :D

  • I bet you can't wait….....good luck to you and congrats!

    Welcome to the forum, enjoy and keep the pics coming.:)

  • OMG! He is adorable! Congratulations. and welcome..you can really learn a lot from this forum. Have fun with him…he is a real cutie.

  • So sweet! One of the great attributes about the basenji breed is that they never really lose that angelic face, no matter what they have managed to get themselves into. I think it has to do with their ability to wrinkle their expressive brow. You know they have chewed up a mechanical pencil or found the lint from the dryer when they purposefully seek you out to lick your face. Watch out for that Guru. He is going to be a heart breaker!
    Best wishes,

    So true!! :) Congrats on getting your Guru. Glad you found this forum too. It will be very helpful to you and your family. Enjoy!

  • I am very excited for you guys, B's are the greatest dogs, they love to get in trouble and be cute doing it and I wouldn't trade mine for anything.

  • So cute little boy! Enjoy the forum and welcome!

  • Welcome to the forum. I think Guru is the cutest baby b I have seen. Ooooo, makes me want to get a second!!

  • That is great! We are also in the process of getting a B and we joined the forum yesterday. We are adopting an older B from BRAT. I think we all will find great help here! Good luck and look forward to seeing pics of your new baby.

  • Thank you everyone :) I lookforward to getting to know everyone :)

    Most people incorrectly use the terms dominant and dominance with regard to dogs. Here is a good blog post by Dr. Sophia Yin on the topic. http://drsophiayin.com/blog/entry/dominance_in_dogs_is_not_a_personality_trait

    Welcome and congratulations! I have two BRATS myself, and a third basenji as well. So beware, they ARE like potato chips (You can't have just one) I love her name, she is gorgeous. Can't wait to hear all about her Homecoming!

    I was struck by the fact that your Bernese lived to be 20 years old! Wow! I know they have had concerns with cancer in the breed, and very few of them live that long. How wonderful for you that you got to have her for that long. Terry
