2 Basenjis, girl and boy, neutered and spayed. Need a sitter for them from time to time.

Hi,
We have two B's, currently 3 and 4 years old. We need a dog sitter from time to time and would like to find someone who is in tune with basenji's. We live in Wilmington, DE, close to Philadelphia. Anyone know of anyone? Thanks so much!

There seems to be several types and styles of booties for dogs. As we all know, our basenji's don't always "fit" in standard pooch clothing. Anyone recommend a brand/type of indoor AND outdoor bootie?

How old is he? What is his story?

Okay, let me start with the fact that I am not a dog owner, yet! I grew up with beagles living outside the house. My husband grew up with a female boxer. We have decided on a basenji. We have 2 children, ages 7 and 11. We have researched and pondered this decision for years. We are looking at puppies on Friday. The idea of taking a pup from her family and home is heartbreaking to me. Would it be easier or way more work to have 2 puppies? And what are any thoughts on male or female for the choice of 1 puppy and what combination for 2. Thank you for your thoughts and consideration.
