Welcome to the forum circlemama,
i understand how you feel about taking the Pup away from family because we felt exactly the same a few weeks ago. Before we picked Malaika up i kept thinking about it but knew in the back of my mind that this was the order of things, after all the breeder wasn't going to keep all the pups so staying in her canine family wasn't an option.
Before we left the breeders house we told Malaika's mum we would look after her, and yes i know she didn't understand the words but i needed to say it anyway 😉
Once home she oly took a few days to settle and now it's like she's always been here.
Like you we considered two Pups but i'm so glad we didn't get two at once. It is a full time job looking after Malaika and having a Pup in the house again was a huge change.
We do plan to get another Basenji in the future.
Name that pup!
-
I'll take her!!!!
Oh wait, that's not what this is about… LOL
I like Sherwood's Keeping Secrets also.
Second choice would be Sherwood's Secret Reflection.I like Secret Endeavor, but that sounds more like a boy to me.
Have you ever gone with a Robin Hood, ie Sherwood Forest theme? {Or is that just to corny for words?}
-
I like the Sherwood Forest theme too How about Sherwood's secret Maid Marion and call the beautiful pup "marion".
-
She is very beautiful and I too, love "Keeping Secrets" and you all are so clever!
-
I like Secret Endeavor.

Funny you should say that…...
When I was selecting a kennel name to use, I wanted something reasonably short, easy to spell and pronounce, and easy to remember. My name is Robyn and the Basenjis are true hoodlums so Sherwood it was! :p
-
I'm with Jazzy…if you can't find her a home..I'll TAKE HER she sure is a beauty! And what a spittin image of her papa
I like Secret Reflection (Reflection of daddy that is ha!)
-
I'm with Jazzy…if you can't find her a home..I'll TAKE HER
Sorry folks this girl is staying with me but if you are interested in one of her brothers….....
-
How about this: Sherwood's Mystery Reflection and call her "Mystery" or "Misty" for short. This one covers both the fact that Mom kept her a "secret" and the fact that she looks like Dad (reflection)!;)
-
How about Sherwood's Secret Crush?
Did you say you have boys?
J/K, I have to wait until the baby is old enough. -
I like Secret Reflection
-
(Mama dog kept her condition a secret until she was about to pop.)
Just a little curious - but do you mean that you didn't know the Mama was pregnant? Did she have only one pup? Very interesting!

You can read the story here
:o
They are LOVELY puppies…see, Baron and Pippin knew what they were doing
-
ok ok ok I can't stand it anymore…what's the winning name!!! The suspense is killing ME slowly
-
Great story…love the bathrobe and the incident at the vet - LOL! they all are beautiful, as you know!
-
Ha Ha Ha I can see Robyn in the bathrobe trying to get the dogs in the door-Ha Ha Ha. If I didn't have so many already I'd take one. But I don't think Shadow would appreciate it. And I am partial to blacks as well!
-
The perfect name popped in my head as I was driving home today. Something I had not even thought of until then.
legacy - something that is handed down or remains from a previous generation or time
This little girl will be formally registered as Sherwood's Secret Legacy!
You guys came up with some GREAT suggestions! Thanks to everyone for joining in the fun. Now….to decide what I'm going to call her. :p
