The Wait!!!!!

Basenji Puppy Pen
  • Hi everyone.
    I am back after a long hiatus.
    We have decided we are going to get 2 pups this season. Yes, we are crazy.
    We thought about it, and thought that it would be best if they had each other to play with, and grow up together.

    One will be from New World Basenjis. 1/2 Avongara from their Kita x Willow breeding, and the other was going to be from a domenstic breeding, that did not take, so instead we are going with one of the full Lukuru pups.

    We went and met the Lukuru pups last weekend. They are the cutest things, and so people oriented and friendly. I can't believe how much I miss them after only 4 hours of visiting.

    The wait is terrible. I am so excited.

    Pics from our visit with the Lukuru pups to follow.

    WOOHOO… you could not have picked better breeders!!! I have been watching the Lukuru pups since the day they were born... And love the Breeding that Karla is doing (Willow and Kita)....

    Congrats.... great choices!!!

  • Awesome! I am sooo jealous! I wanna puppy!!!! No…must be strong :) I need to talk to Jo so I can go see the Lukuru babies :) Congrats on your soon to be new additions!

  • You will have double the work, and double the joy, but I bet your up to it…
    Kudo's on your great choice of puppies.

  • Major congrats! I really think 2 at once is wonderful… play mate and all that. As long as you spend lots of time individually so they bond with you... which you will... double the work but double the fun. I am envious!

  • I can't wait to see them. And I'm really jealous about the Lukuru puppy. :rolleyes: I love Dr. Jo's dogs, particularly Amisi. I'm going to have to vicariously live through you guys until next year. I have serious puppy envy. :)

  • Wow, congratulations…I would love to have two puppies as well..but one will have to do. Great pictures...I am so excited for you all.

  • How I envy you!

  • Very pretty puppies good luck I know your going to have
    lots of fun with two.

  • The waiting is the worst part- I am waiting for my puppy now and the countdown is between 9-10 weeks away so I feel your excitement, I thought about getting two but I am not brave enough so I figure one for now and next years another one. Congratulations on your new family members!!

  • It's not that we overbook. It's that stupid clients book a haircut and get there and decide they want colour too! They demand we do it so what else are we supposed to do? I'd say 70% of our clients want more than they actually booked in for. So give us a break ok.

  • All those puppies look so sweet! Congratulations on picking your dogs from a great breeder.

  • Hi Nicole!

    I just signed up here. I'm looking forward to seeing the Kita x Willow pups in 3 weeks!

    I know too many puppies and dogs injured or killed due to collars left on unattended. Not worth the risk.

    @zande - You bet! We must be showing our ages! Or Been There/Done That! Very few times we disagree, but when we do we respect the others point of view!

    @creambasenji said in New Puppy Advice: She's 9 months and 8.5 pounds. Doesn't seem she will be getting any bigger This must be a typo. 9 months or 9 weeks? At any rate, I'd love to see a picture of a cream Basenji, toy or not.
  • Picked our breeder. We are on a Waiting list!

    Congrats on picking a breeder and getting on the future puppy list…hope you are successful in getting a pup! :D How exciting! Oh, and regarding the sleeping - I truly think the secret weapon for sleep, besides wearing my pup out before bed, was the snugglepuppy that Lisa (lvoss) recommended. Definitely get one of those! Liyah had no problems sleeping - I only remember her crying the first 2 nights and then only for 15 or 20 minutes, otherwise, I've always had my full night sleep. So sleepwise, for me a puppy was easy, as was potty training.
