Is it one of the pups rescued from the Young County shelter? If so, I own a female rescued from that breeder a year prior. She's a little demon, but a very lovable and well socialilized dog without a mean bone in her body.
Where are you located?
-
Hi, yes Kell is one of the 8 pups. He is a darling, sweetie, but he will stand up for himself. He is showing signs of developing into a "stinker". He and the 4 year old are playing crazily thru the house right now, all the pillow are off the couches, and he is barooing at times so that is neat.
-
Sorry, we are in El Campo TX, about an hour south of Houston on Hwy 59.
-
Not sure if you saw the pics in the other thread, but here's one of the whole litter + parents in the shelter.
-
Which one is yours??
-
From what I can see in that picture, Kell is one or the r/w boys at the very back, I think he is the one closet to the wire.
-
Here's one of the boys loaded up for transport.
-
Kell is the r/w with green collar, head turned away and the white does not go all the way around his neck.
-
Tell Kell his older sister Bella says "hello". She's pooped out from a walk (hope she stays that way for a little while longer).

Hi and welcome to you and your pack..Kell too.
SO nice to have you onboard, but more importantly, so nice of you to open your home to these little guys..
I am in Houston, on the north side, but we have family in Corpus, so we go through El Campo a few times a month..
I am also a foster for BRAT, it is a lovely feeling to know you can help a living creature out and nothing is wanted in return..warms my heart..Craigh..Bella is adorable too..How old are they now?
-
Craigh..Bella is adorable too..How old are they now?
Bella is 1 year 4 months. The newest (and last) batch of pups are 4 months old.
-
Hi, do we have a date of birth on the 8 pups?
-
December 14, 2009 is the birthdate of the 8 pups.
-
Hi, here are some photos of Kell during his first week with us, He has gone from a bit timid to right in the middle of rough housing with his new "sisters".
-
Wow, he is adorable..so cute.
-
I love the big ears!!! He's adorable!!
-
We are hoping he grows into them! As he has felt more at home, his tail is also curling more tightly. And as Duane calls him, The Land Shark, chews and chews and chews. Has been 5 years since we have puppy proofed the house so that is a continuing work in progress as we go "how did he ever reach that!" and "Where did he get That!". But such fun too.

List of things Bella chewed in the first year: recliner, sofa, iPhone, TV remote, numerous shoes, underwear, throw pillows, comforter, bed skirt, Nordic Trac, collar, several dish towels . . . you get the picture. She chewed more than my first two put together. Must run in the family.

Ok, our dogs get bathed about twice a year, beginning of summer and right before it gets really cold. I let Kell watch as I bathed the 2 girls, he was fascinated, just hanging over the tub watching the action. Then it was his turn, he did not care for the water but stood very still while I soaped him. Then when I was rinsing him, he attempted to climb over my shoulder and those dew claws HURT. but Duane leant a hand and we got him all rinsed and dried. Then finished up with the grumpy 14 year old Cory, who stands and takes it when bath times come around. Again Kell was hanging over the edge of the tub watching it all. My Gambit who crossed the bridge last year HATED baths. He would walk sideways up the side of the tub to avoid the water! He would be perpendictular to the floor of the tub, I SWEAR! Never saw anything before or since like him in the bathtub. and he was a BIG basenji boy. I miss him terribly, and was not sure losing him the way I did that I would ever be ready for another B Boy, I felt like something had broken inside me. But Kell is worming his way in. I guess I had to be sure I could bond with him, more than him bonding with me in deciding to go from fostering to adopting. So that is the latest on Kell. Oh and he is down to 2 meals aday now, with a treat to go into his crate. Dawn
