Our winters here in Australia are not like yours in New England - we don't get snow where I am, but do get hard frosts. Cold days are 14C, but situated where I am on the side of a hill, the wind off the snow area 75 kms further up the valley can get a bit lazy - prefers to go through you rather than round you!!
And as we all know - Basenjis don't 'do' cold!! My Swedish boy is cuddled up in his bed in front of the heater beside me. Silly boy still gets his summer coat in our winter!!

Thank you everyone who sent in their registrations. We will be sending out everyone their basenji buddy by the end of today.

I didn't got my basenji buddy last night?
-
I didn't get one last night either.
-
I didn't either, but I'm sure the admins will get a hold of us shortly. Extra time to dream up what to get for your Christmas basenji friend!
-
Has anyone been sent the name of their Christmas buddy? If shipping overseas, time is of the essence.
-
I just had hubby check his email and my buddy hasn't been assigned yet. Maybe I should send you a present Kipawa.
-
But December 1 has already passed? 2 more days will be December 7. Is that when we will get the names?
-
I didn't have a basenji buddy either…
I do have to ship overseas...
-
Has anyone got there buddy yet? Was just wondering.
-
Maybe we should be asking if Alex is okay - or just overwhelmed by the response to participate.

Very nice thought, Wizard.

Alex, hope all is well.
Our household has, frankly, gained a reputation as being the couple that "Keeps Christmas going into the new year." So in my mind, there is still plenty for the gift exchange to happen.

Hey Folks,
Sorry about the delay, it's been a busy last 7 days due to some unexpected events, but everything is well now. Basenji buddies have been assigned and emails sent out. Looking forward to all the gift unwrapping photos and stories.

I've got my Basenji buddy!!
Christmas shopping this weekend!!! can't wait!!!
-
Shopping here too, probably today! This is going to be fun!
-
Whoohoo. Got my B buddy. Time to go shopping!!
-
Did a little shopping today. Came home and the dogs were very confused why I was not distributing the goods from the big bag of goodies! I'm participating in a Shiba gift exchange too, so there was a bit of stuff in there.
Anyway, I had to take the bag out to the car because Bowdu was stalking the bag, even when I tried to put it out of view in the closet. -
Mine is packaged and ready to be shipped (I had the day off yesterday)!
-
Mine is off in the mail today. My B buddy should see it in about 6-8 days. Do we tell our B buddy that we got them? Or is it secret?
