Snickers and Daisy


  • Many of you have been kind enough to have read my posts and I thought you might like to meet my babies. Daisy is on top of Snickers in the baby pictures. She is the one that just passed and is missed by all, but especially Snickers.

    In the picture with my girls, Daisy is on the right.

    Thank you for your openness in helping another broken-hearted Basenji lover.

  • Sorry for your loss :( They are both adorable !! :)


  • Lovely pictures and I can see that you have a happy family.


  • Very sorry to read of your loss of Daisy, she was a lovely girl. Snickers is lovely too, i like the pic of them with your girls.


  • Sorry, we have been a little too busy to post lately but the good news is that Snickers has a new friend We received a 10 month old red/white boy into our family. I will try to add a couple of pictures. We still miss Daisy but Java is keeping us all hopping. As you can see, even Snickers has accepted him.

  • Snickers and Java look to have become very close to each other. How wonderful that they are there for each other and for you as you heal. Your Daisy will never leave your hearts, but you will look to new joys with Java in your family.


  • Nice to see the pictures - they certainly look devoted to each other.


  • Oh I LOVE the picture of them curled together. Congrats on the new addition. He can't replace Daisy but our hearts expand to add another.

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    Nice looking dog! I'm tempted to get another too once Safi is a bit older.

    Thanks, Mom and Jan. The b/w is the only artsy photo I have of Daisy. And the bottom one really cracks me up.
