Thanks Don C
I think I need a tranquilizer…

So, so, so, so, soooooo excited for you! Can't wait to hear all the stories and see all the pictures!!!!

I'm curious as to what you think you're going to do with the dog beds. Don't you know basenjis sleep in what will soon used to be known as your bed. Are you sure you've researched the breed at all?
Here's a link to some puppy things:

it's been a while since i read it, but seems like i liked it (actually i ended up getting 2 copies)Oh, and a good camera. i didn't see that on your list

Kipawa- It isn't the same as the snuggle puppy but places like Petco supply a product called Petstages Puppy Cuddle Pal, I don't know if any place near you would carry such an item but it has the heat element that the Snuggle puppy does but not the heartbeat. Just a thought since it was brought up. I am so excited for you, and a little jealous- I still have a few more weeks to go!

Very true!
Although they do have other uses besides something comfy to lay on while crated. Cody uses his dog bed as a toy to drag, throw, and defluff. I used to replace them every few months, but now I just restuff it and sew it back up. It looks like a franken-bed. -
Ha! A frankenbed! I gave up trying to provide Abbey with a soft comfy bed. Every time I restuffed it and sewed it back up she would unstuff it and climb inside it like it was some kind of snuggle sack.

Yes, there are beds galore here - mostly because of the 3 cats we had/have. We are now down to 2 cats with Barney's passing. The beds we have are a very good size (big for the cats) so hopefully Kipawa will use them at some point. But quite honestly, if he naps with me while I sit on the couch, I will be more than happy! And I am sure at some point these beds will become frankenbeds. Love that term!

New avatar today, folks. That is puppy Kipawa a few weeks back!
I had a great conversation with Therese this morning. Kevin will be here tomorrow in the early morning. Therese kindly asked if we would be up. Up? Like she thinks we will be able to sleep tonight?
Kipawa is about 10 lbs. right now. And he already has a love for agility coursing - he loves the tube! So our backyard will be transformed into a smaller version agility course this spring. Our trainer does agility, so once he goes through puppy obedience and once his bone plates are stronger, I'll sign him up for agility.
He already knows a number of commands - sit/stay, door, go to mat and others.
Lots of little things to do today as final prep for his arrival.
Happy New Year to everyone! -
