Gift Exchange: Basenji Buddies Summer 2008

Basenji Talk

  • When I get mine, I'm going to post pics and details..

    I'm sending my gifts out tomorrow so my buddy should have it within the week!

    :)


  • I've got mine packaged and ready to send off tomorrow. Hope our buddy lets us know how they liked them! :D


  • I got mine back, and have to try again once I get the address fixed. It appears between the buddy and me, the address got jumbled.


  • I wait for one more little detail and send off by maybe Thursday. I am curious how long the post will take….

    Regards,
    Esther


  • I sent my package off yesterday.


  • We sent ours off today…should be to our B-buddy by Monday!

    Jackpot got his box of goodies in the mail yesterday~! He LOVES the zebra stuffed animal and goes crazy every time it makes the whinny noise! What a fun gift :-) He was also VERY excited about the red chicken stick things...boy does he love those, he could smell them through the box and kept pawing at the box before we got it opened! The collar is VERY cool. Thanks for all of the presents!

    I've attached a few pictures of Jackpot with his new favorite toy.

  • Awh awesome! I'm so glad Jackpot recieved his gift! I didn't have Jackpot, but it's good to see that our Basenji Buddy plan worked out!

    I sent my package out today, my b-buddy should be getting it sometime early next week!


  • Woo hoo!!!! Zaire FINALY finished her package for our Basenji buddy. I can't wait to brave to post office tomorrow and send it out….. This really was a GREAT idea.

    Just as a funny side note, When we went shopping I had Zaire with me. The woman at one of the little shops we went to (read as "I am blessed to live in Oregon where we have way too many cute little dog specialty shops") Fealt bad that Zaire wasn't getting any of the toys we were buying, so she gave zaire some lamb jerky so she wouldn't feel neglected. :D


  • Hahahaha, that's too funny; I bet Zaire was happy :)

    I understand this all too well. I work in a dog bakery and Shango comes to work with me. Everyone comes in and he plays the role so well- "Oh! He's not getting any treats? Can I buy one for him?" Hahahahhaha he's such a lucky dog on days we work!


  • I am sure he never gets any treats from his Daddy, haha!!!!


  • My basenji buddy gifts were shipped out today!

    As a side note, the place I shipped from wouldn't let me add any notes to the package. Sooo…I will just explain the gifts Dallas sent on here after my buddy has received them :) I don't want to ruin the surprise beforehand!


  • We got ours today. I got a Navy pen and bumper sticker, and Medjai got some great new nylabones, cookies, plush ball, and some other great odds and ends. There was also a great little booklet that came with the package written by Medjai's basenji buddy.

    I have found one problem with this package. It make mine seem so small, as I didn't send that much or with a cute little note, but Medjai's new buddy should love their package as much as Medjai loves those types of things.


  • Please post some photos!


  • Our package arrived the other day from Florida. In addition to some delicious goodies, EL D received a new collar (I especially like the little allegators) …

    Very snazzy new collar. Looks like El D knew he was looking good, he strikes quite a pose!


  • A great collar for a handosme boy!

    Wow! What a handsome dog!!


  • I got all my stuff packaged and ready to go..It'll be out in the mail tomorrow hopefully!


  • For Soulmate - just got my student loan money and research stipend today (I just love being a poor college student:) ). so please forgive me for the lateness of the package. I'll be sending it out end of this week.


  • don't worry, I am also a bit late. Beegin loves Post-its? interesting B-hobby…

    regards,
    esther


  • MacPack (Topper, Eddie & Nicky) got their gifts today, woo-hoo!
    Great stuffed toys (snatched from my hands immediately!), pizzle sticks,and really yummy dog treats…lots and lots to last a long time (or one day if Eddie had his druthers). And a treat for the humans too, thanks Wizard!

    This is fun!

    @planetsaver said in Basenji for me or not ?: Will be a problem to leave him alone, let's say 10 days / month an average of 9 hours a day. Also I do not want to have to much trouble with the neighbours, but I understand he can make some noise sometimes, maybe he can be trained to stay alone and not to bark that much. Why would you even think about training a hunting hound to stay home alone ? I would never let my Basenjis alone for more than 4 hours, and even that is very rare. 3 hours is absolute maximum. Like @tanza, I have sold puppies into apartment environments as long as all other boxes ticked positive. Someone there all the time, proper attention to training, not just leaving the dog alone, especially not as a puppy. btw, he won't bark at all. As you would know if you had really researched the breed. He will cry and scream but not bark ! No. At least you are asking questions but I really think you should find another breed.

    There's nothing like a basenji in the works, from the way they instinctively lay with their had on the bum looking the other way ( I've never met a B that doesn't) to the way you KNOW they all rub on wet towels or play bow…it's all very endearing and in this breed you often identify traits that they all have, an insight into their genetics and their behaviors. I've never enjoyed a breed so much.

    @phoenix3: Looks like a B to me but i think more of a B mix he looks like he has corse hair Maybe be has the size of a cattledog body and a basenji head :) My Aspen is a cattledog/ terrier mix he has the body of a cattledog {the colors} and the height and face of a terrier heres a pic so u can see the colors of the cattledog well one color anyways :D :D phoenix3 - this is Aspen? I'm so amazed at her spots, because my Daisy has spots like Aspens. We know her mother is pure R/W Basenji and she is thought her other half Beagle. One of her other litter mate moms thought Blue Healer (cattledog). But I subscribed to the Beagle. Daisy could be … Cattle Dog I suppose. She's bigger than Duke now at almost 9 months old. I will show her off soon on "Show Off" forum soon.

    OMG, TRUST me…its not only ur baby, Jack has some seporation anxiety, i mean, we rescued him so that may be why, but i Always feel so sad when we leave him, he runs to the window and crys when we leave, but i KNOW it wonly lasts until he cant see us anymore (driving away) my neighbor watched for me. but SOMETIMES he does get into things when we leave for too long. like the other day, when he ate my betta fish food...grr...
