Ask the breeder how big the sire and dam are. That's a good idea. My first basenji, who was a champion, weighed nearly 26 pounds when she matured. My 2nd one would have been about that, but thanks to steroids, we did good to keep her at 30. My current rescue is a giant. We won't go there. I first dreamed of a SMALL dog, maybe 15 pounds tops after years of being a BIG DOG person (rottweilers and chows). I don't see that ever happening.
New Collars!
-
Bowpi got a new collar!
Okay, it's not as fancy as Maya's bling ;), but I think she looks lovely in these colors. The collar was a gift from my advisor for dogsitting while he went to Arizona – hence, the southwestern pattern. I just realized it looks tight on the back of her neck... it's really not.
Bowdu got a matching collar too...
I think Bowpi likes hers more than Bowdu likes his… but since he won't leave his paws alone due to his allergies, we had to resort to "drastic" measures.

They both look very cute in their collars - I just love Bowdu's face. Not a totally happy camper.

I love the pictures - what a contrast!!
