  • woo congrats! what a lovely pup!

  • Congratulations Fran, he is so cute!!!

  • @sharronhurlbut:

    Those toys will not be whole after a while. I am delighted you finally got your "little" man home.
    Hugs and hugs to you all.
    How do the kittys like the puppy?

    Sharron, it is going really well! The kitties are showing and telling Kipawa that they were here first. Kipawa just wants to play with them, but they have a hiss that tells Kipawa that close is okay, but nothing more. It's great, I don't have to walk around ensuring the kitties are safe. Tons of thanks to Therese and Kevin for exposing Kipawa to cats!

  • @curlytails:

    There he is! I see he's already building quite the menagerie of… toys.
    Cute cute cute.

    Uh, yes. The toy box is quite full. Yesterday when we were buying his coat, he grabbed a 5 foot long soft, squeeky boa constrictor off the shelf. So that came home with us. It was fun watching him interact with other dogs in the store - so respectful of them. I know that eventually he will do something needing correction, but this boy is a dream.

  • Oh Kipawa- I know I am going to be the same as you- when my puppy comes home and we go to a store, anything he even looks at will probably come home with us, so happy you finally got your baby and he is a dream!

  • Congratulations! He is so cute. I can't wait to hear more stories.

    Only a Basenji would look upside down like that rather than turn their head sideways, it's hilarious. One thing that Basenjis do is make me laugh, they are silly but so serious doing it!

    @TMartin: Looks like he did wonderful! In Loki's puppy class we did the same exercise, with the peanut, regular exercise balls, and barrels placed on their side and with something underneath while upright to make it wobbly. One of the pics I posted of Loki months ago is of him on the peanut. A regular exercise ball is more challenging as you first need to make sure you have a good hold on it and then gradually loosen your hold so it wobbles however much the dog can handle at the time. And of course it is far more unstable than the peanut. I haven't ordered the peanut yet, but now that you are talking about the regular exercise ball, I might go for that instead, because I can use it to stretch out my lower back.

    @weeziesmom: I have tried chew bones to curb his chewing however he tries to take weezies and they fight over them You can teach him to leave hers alone. Make them both sit for their chew; give hers first and make him stay with you when she dashes off to chew. {helps him see that she gets one/he gets one, and also gives her a head start!} Make sure he knows you have one for him also. He must sit and make eye contact with you before he is given his treat. Once they both have a chew, make them stay in different spots. Stand between them, moving your body silently to block his attempts to get to her. If necessary, tell him "no" or "leave it". It shouldn't take long for him to learn that he gets his and she gets hers. Eventually, he will just look when you hand her the treat and will sit and stare at your face until he gets his own, then he'll run to his own spot to chew his bone.

    Now that's different. I too, have only seen human sonograms. How interesting. Looking forward to seeing the pup(s) upon arrival.
