  • I was just thinking i hadn't seen any of your pics for a long time, i've missed them.
    It looks like you had a great walk, i love walking in the snow. Some of the pics look like they're having a Valentines cuddle.

  • Wonderful photos…thanks so much for sharing.

    Yes, it's so cold outside, I can hardly hold the camera.. But today BF and I went together and then we can take turns :) I promise to shoot some extra pics as soon as the temps go up! ;)

  • Thanks for the great pictures! Love their coats.

  • Great pics..

    And I still say: Lycia must stay.. :D

  • @Buana:

    Great pics..

    And I still say: Lycia must stay.. :D

    Everybody keeps saying that.. My mom, sister, the vet, Mirtillo ;) She's not mine though.. But it will be hard to let her go. This morning they were alone for 3,5 hours and I videotaped it.. They are soooo cute together! Playing, cuddling.. Enjoying the sun.. Lycia cries every 10-15 min and then she walks to Tillo and sits really close to him.. :) I think Tillo tells her everything is allright :)

  • Oh they are beautifull! Love Tilos sweater!

  • Janneke,
    I can not tell you how much I have missed seeing your wonderful pictures…
    Thank you for filling my needs.
    The pictures are wonderful, amazing and yes funny too. The dogs look great in their coats (well in Tillo's coats ;)).

    When will Lycia go "home" ? I know that will probably be so hard for both of y'all and for Tillo even more so..

    Lycia is allowed to enter GB after the 26th of February… And yes.. it will be hard to let her go.. It took some time for Tillo to really appreciate Lycia's company, but they are getting closer and closer. Now you can't look at one without seeing the other ;)

  • How wonderful you had her for so long. I'm sure Lycia's mom is dying to get her back as much as you, BF, and Tillo are wanting to keep her longer. Keep that little pink collar handy!! Tillo may need a new little sister soon:).

  • All those pictures are amazing, but that first one of them playing together to stay warm is precious on so many levels! :)

  • I'm always waiting for new pics of you, too :D
    Watched all the "old" ones on your website again last week… ;)

    Can I ask how tall Tillo and Lycia are?
    There is not SO much difference between them, is there?

    Yes, I know for sure Lauren can't wait to get Lycia back! And I know Lycia will be soooo happy to see her real mommy again! :)

    Thanks for your nice post. Glad to hear you enjoy the pics so much :)

    Tillo is.. I think… about 44 cm high. He weights 10 kilo at the moment. I don't know how high Lycia is, but she weights only 8 kilo.. So they have a two kilo difference ;)

  • @Janneke:

    So they have a two kilo difference ;)

    Same as here :) Thabo 10.5 and Zuri 8.5
    He is nearly 45cm and Zuri nearly 42 - but I don't see the 3cm so much :p

    Can you hope to get a puppy soon or will it take some time?

    I just measured them for you :D Tillo is 44 cm and Lycia is 39 cm. When I first saw Lycia and lifted her, I was like :eek: Sooo tiny.. gg.. now I'm used to it and don't see it anymore..

    Because I'm not sure when Lycia will leave.. I don't think it will be a puppy from this season. We'll have to wait :)

  • Poor Tillo and poor Janneke! ;)
    That will be a looooong year for you :D

  • @Elysium:

    Yes.. it probably will be… But we'll have more fun preparing.... ;)

  • Your pictures are always so good - Tillo and Lycia seem a perfect pair- I'm sure they will miss each other when she has to leave. Have you ever considered creating a calendar of your pics? I'm sure it would sell - Tillo is such a perfect little model!

    Thank you :) Someone from this forum (etzbseder) made a book last year with pics of Tillo in it. I also made a book with a selection of pics of his first year. (pics of it here: http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?t=5035 ) I'm now working on a book of his second year, but I've got too many pics to choose from :rolleyes: I'm working on 'June' at the moment..

    If you're interested in a calender with Tillo on it, I'm more than willing to make one ;)

  • MY goodness, what an uproar it will be when I get Lycia back. ;) It shall be a shame to have them separate, because they are beyond cute together.

    Job got some wonderful photos of your outing. Looks like all the dogs had a great time and got along, obviously all well socialized, as well as gorgeous.

    I will miss the snow when it disappears :( Yes, we do live near a dog park, its right behind my house :) And we're surrounded by hundreds of acres of farmland so its ideal for the dogs!

    @tsjoe007: What you can try in these conditions is to rev up the sensitivity of the camera (you remember, the ASA thing ;) ) for instance from 200 or 400 ASA to 1600 or even 3200. But beware ! The "noise" will rise too so if you want to print the photos on a format greater than A4 the noise will be very prominent so you have to compare the pro's and con's. Again, practice, practise, practise. Better take 50 pictures than to wait for the right moment to shoot. That's the benefit of shooting digital !;) I don't like to high ISO's, because of the noice.. especially not if you can put another lens on your cam. Professional photographers not only have more experience.. they also have more money to spend on lenses…. that's another BIG advantage.. Better filters.. better feeling for composition.. better photoshop programmes.. etc ;)

    That's true! Fiji doesn't like to get her feet wet and heaven forbid she get rained on. Bongo has the same aversion to rain, but has no problem chasing another dog or a stick or whatever into the water at the dog beach, Silly 'senjis!
