@abonnard Pee pads got me through in the end, she would pee every 20 mins for the first months, then 40 mins, then she suddenly went to being able to hold it for many hours. One of the best purchases I got before she arrived was a small carpet washer, saved my sanity. The cleanup is so key otherwise they go back to the same spot.
Patiently (ish) waiting

I am very happy with the breeder we have chosen she has been so helpful and I can see she is well thought of in the community.
We are now down to 2 names (we think, 6 year old changes her mind every 5 minutes lol). Gizmo (front runner) and Fox.

@enquiring_mind - Honestly? The pup you tell you what name is the best when you get the pup home....LOL
-
@tanza mine always tell me what they want to be called . Best not have any preconceived ideas
-
We have some new pictures of our boy Gizmo. Oh I am so excited to have him with our family soon.
-
@enquiring_mind he looks very cheeky!
-
@jkent doesn't he. My cheeky boy. 🥰

@enquiring_mind
Adorable impish little face! 🥰You’re in for a load a fun with Gizmo! Congratulations!
-
I love his face and expression. Jealous here! He's likely going to be trouble, but so much fun!

Well on Friday night at 12:30am, after a long journey, our Gizmo arrived home.
He has settled in like a dream. The first 24 hours have been great. He's great with my 6 year old daughter, walking nicely (was pulling a lot at first) and no messes in the house.
I was worried how he would do in his create at night after all his naps being on the hooman cushions. But after a little time of whimpering he's slept well too.

@enquiring_mind
Congratulations! He is ADORABLE! 🥰 -
He is super cute, but do register him with the Kennel Club - same applies to everyone who is importing a Basenji puppy into UK. Doesn't matter if you never intend to breed or to show - all dogs should be registered. Go to the KC website and follow instructions.

Thank you, this is my list of things to do this week.
