I went to visit Mrs. Reeds new puppies and my are they adorable!! I will post the pictures when i get back to my apartment. So I am pretty sure on an apartment and will probably live there till I graduate from Sam Houston. My mom is being very wise about this whole situation and is very helpful. I filled out an adoption form with BRAT and they are so nice and flexible. I am going to have someone come to the house one weekend before the summer. My mom said I could get a Basenji then. I am ok with this decision so i can think of what would be best for me and the dog.
Oh as far as the apartment. There is a dog park a short walk down the street. The barn is maybe a quarter mile and campus is probably a 20minute walk. I plan to get a bike so I can ride to class but I can also walk with the Basenji

I have also tried looking at another breed that might be right for me. I think the only dog I would consider is a Golden Retriever. But even then I worry about the grooming and ear infections they get. They are mighty pretty but after really visiting Basenjis (we were there for 3 hours and the time flew by!) I think I'm in love. I got to visit with all of Mrs. Terrys dogs and they had all types of personalities. I love their mischievious personalities but they do it with the most innocent look. Oh and the basenji that comes to our clinic to board finally came back! Was it fate that I got to see her? She is a beautiful tri and her name is George. She can be very cautious and wasn't as friendly as Mrs. Reeds dogs but thats probably because she doesnt like the vet. As far as any other breeds i can't find a breed i like that doesn't need an actual job, such as an aussie, a blue heeler, or cattle dog. And i'm not too interested in toy breeds.

These upcoming months are definately reserved for thinking. Thank you so much for everyones input and help

Thanks, Petra and Sarah!!
The pups had so much fun playing with you! They slept very peacefully afterwards :-)

And Sarah, I'm impressed that you could post the pictures - I still can't!

Zee and Luna have had a busy 2 days - yesterday to the vet for shots and microchips, today they went to the veterinary opthamologist for their eye exams. They were SO good, even on lead for the first times!!
