Yes my pups doing well , to date I have taken 3 deer off my boys and having trouble posting pics. Les is developing into a nice dog so much so that I got feedback for the dog groomer down the road who just happens to be a credited show judge that he is the best basenji she has seem . This put the lady she told nose out of joint as her dogs who were being groomed at the time both have Australian titles. He has impressed all that have seem him in the field as he works just like my Wei . They are truly two peas in a pod . The other day I introduced my Wei to water not to be outdone little Les followed him in swam the river and showed that he is a better swimmer than the Wei . I just may have one hell of a dog on my hands.

Yes, we go twice a year for summer vacation and Christmas. Plan on spending July up there to get away from the TX heat!

Welcome to the forum - will be nice to hear stories about you and Max! No arguing here - basenjis are the best!

Max did well this winter good thing it was a mild one. Max likes the snow, but hates the cold.

When I got him he was about 13 pounds 4 months old. Now he is 22 pounds & is 15 months old today April 20. Few photos of Max over the last year.

Great Pics… who did you get Max from? Many of us are related by our Basenjis

Crazy story how I got Max. On June 5, 2009 I lost my old dog he & I were hit by a car that ran a red light. I survived my dog didn't… After that I thought about what type of dog I would like to have... Always liked Basenjis so the next few months I did some research on Basenjis. Met a few breeders, and went to a few dog shows, but I just wasn't ready for a new dog. Then on June 5, 2010 I was sitting at home watching tv & thought let's see what dogs are available for adoption at the local humane society, and there was Max. I couldn't believe it!!!
Rushed over to the humane society, and was the 1st day Max was available for adoption. Worked out perfect I needed a Basenji and he needed me. Here are a few photos of that day! -
Awww, i love stories with happy endings, or is it happy beginnings?

Happy beginnings for sure…. I have one basenji I see you have 3 what is that like? Must be interesting

Love your adoption story, you were obviously meant for each other. He is adorable, a very lucky little basenji boy.
Many of us have multiple basenjis! Living with three is wonderful, when they are young they keep each other occupied and busy, and as they age they become (hopefully) best buddies. Especially if you have one with separation anxiety, having a partner for them to stay home with seems to really help.
Your photos of Max are great, he is very cute, glad you joined us!

Sadly my old guys have never been best buddies.
3 isn't really too much work right now as 2 of mine are old guys. Digital is almost 15.5 and Jet is 14.5 years. Hard to believe and not too much wrong with them.

Max has a darling, expressive face. And I really like that yellow "sunning" platform.
Lovely adoption story too. You say (or the humane society said) that he's a mix? He basically looks full Basenji to me!

Yep Max is all basenji and he loves to lay in the sun.

I reread your first post and I think I saw where I got my wires crossed at Max/mix. Haha, never mind me.

Max was 4 months old in this video. Shepherd was 1 year old & today Max & Shepherd are good friends.
