Bragging about Mirtillo

  • @snorky998:

    Congratulations!! Well deserved for a handsome man and such a dedicated 'mom'.

    Next time they want to see more movement, have a friend drop a squirrel in the ring.:eek: That will separate the men from the boys in the movement catagory:D

    Hahahaa.. just imagine what will happen then… :D :D
    Not only Tillo will fly through the ring... all b's will.. and some podencos... etc :D

    I think it would be a lot of fun ;)

    And thank you for your compliment :)

  • He is a beautiful boy!! Congrats! I love the pictures. Is his coat that deep red as it looks in the pictures?

    Thank you :)
    And yes, his coat is quite red. Here you can see his 'real' colour: http://www.basenjiforums.com/showthread.php?t=4714

  • Yesterday evening I received a call from the breeder : our puppy is on his way !!
    They did an echography as well as a bloodtest which were both affirmative: 4 puppy's are in the making. :D
    30 more days to go:).

    I'll keep you all informed.

    SPANNEND!!!! :D

    You should start a thread, so we can all follow the news with date of birth.. pics.. and pics.. and euh.. pics :D :D

  • Huge congrats!!!

  • :D Sure, Janneke, I'll start a thread as soon as I get some news.
    As for the name of our boy: the breeder asked us, with respect to the breed, to choose an African/Egyptian (official) name for our pup, beginning with an "H". We've chosen "Hanubis Du Vieux Bry" aka "Bendji" as his call name.
    Hanubis referring to Anubis, the Greek name for a jackal-headed god associated with mummification and the afterlife in Egyptian mythology, and Bendji, the name of a hamlet in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
    Hope you guys like it too :rolleyes:
    To be continued…

  • @Janneke:

    We had a show today and Mirtillo did wonderful. It was his first time in this class (youth: 9-18 months) and he became first with an 'excellent'. He also got his first point (out of three) for his Dutch youth championship. And he was second best male with a reserve CAC.. but because male nr 1 is a Dutch Champion already, it counts for a CAC. So he also has his first point (out of four) for his Dutch Championship! :D

    I think, the best male was beautiful :D

    The youth boys both did great!

    Congratulations to all of the dogs and your daughters, sounds like they had a wonderful time. Good size entries too! My Rufus was a little 'B' when he was in puppy (still can be if he feels like it) we entertained everybody with his antics, it does get better!

    The winners are posted at www.thebasenji.com Glad to hear that the trophy that we sponsored with nice… just so everyone knows, we didn't contribute the Wooden box itself, just the money to sponsor the class. I believe all the trophies were made by L.Jane Williams

    @Janneke: Let's hope it gets better… I blame myself for giving him some chewing bones.. I believe it might have made it worse. (didn't noticed before giving the bones) He's not getting them anymore for a while... We already noticed the diffirent opinions of judges. Some said: "overbite.." Like Mirtillo should never have been in the ring.. other where like: "ooh.. an overbite.. if that's all" I would say for sure that the chewing bones did NOT have any effect.. at all on that…. typically you would not notice it that much until they loose the baby teeth and start to get the adult ones and the head starts to take shape.
