Gift Exchange: Winter Holidays 2008

Basenji Talk

  • @Chelbell26:

    We got our email earlier this week & mailed our package on Tuesday..so hopefully our basenji buddy will get it tomorrow!?! :-)

    We did get our package yesterday and Chase and Zahra were quiet all night chewing away at those Bully sticks (which they can have, I just have to keep an eye on Chase who inhales everything). Those were the biggest and thickest bully sticks I have ever seen, where did you find those? The water bottle toy is very cool and the snowman with the rope arms and legs seems to be a favorite with Zahra. The Christmas wreath did not survive 5 minutes, they are quite the chewers and pulled off the nose of I think what use to be a snowman. I took some pictures and I will post them next week, I have a great action photo of Zahra shaking the snowman and both furkids on the couch with their bully sticks (until DH came home and remembered what they were and kicked them off the couch).

    We especially loved the Christmas card and Jackpot's picture which is now hung on our fridge so that we can look at our new friend!

    I am hoping to get Jackpot's in the mail tomorrow but I have finals and several papers due this weekend so I am a little out of my mind presently and may not be able to send it until Monday.

    Thank you so much for your package, it was so much fun! We hope you enjoy yours as much as we liked ours.


  • I'm so glad you got the package & that your furbabies enjoyed all their presents! :-) Those bully sticks are from one of our local independent pet stores & they are "red barn" bully sticks. Jackpot LOVES them. The "water bottle cruncher" toy & the rope snowman sound like they were a hit as well. Glad to hear. :-)

    That's cool that Jackpot's pic is on your fridge. :-)


  • Please post photos! We would love to see them.

  • I think the more common error is that people wrote down an incorrect address writing to you, so:

    Please also check your sent messages to see that you sent an email to the correct address.


  • I have purchased some of my stuff. I plan on sending them out by the end of the week or first thing Monday :) I love this!

  • @Alex:

    Several members (Youngandtired, DiegosMom) who signed up for this gift exchange, emailed us saying they did not receive their basenji buddy info.

    All the buddy info emails went out last Sunday, so please check your mailboxes. Maybe it's in the junk folder. Anyone else who did not receive their basenji buddy info email for this gift exchange please post to this thread asap and we will resend it.

    I haven't recieved any email yet either. I checked my junk mail folder too and don't have anything. Could you please resend it?


  • PhocoenaGirl,

    Thank you for letting us know, we resent the email. Please check and let us know if you got it.

    Winter Gift Exchange Participants,

    It seems that hotmail is for some reason is silently discarding some of our emails. From my experience, their email system always had delivery issues.

    Anyone with a hotmail account who is participating in this exchange please send us an alternate (non hotmail) email address to giftexchange@basenjiforums.com asap.

    Thank you,


  • Got all my goodies to send, now just have to find a box and go to the post office! Hopefully it will be in the mail no later than Tuesday.


  • I sent you an email, Alex.


  • @AndrewnShango:

    Shango got his package today!!!

    THANKS DIEGO AND MEEKA!

    We'll be posting pictures (And details) soon!!

    :)

    Hope he enjoyed his package! cant wait to see pics!!!

    We use the muttluks for Mowgli and Miika and they do stay on, they are on the second pair already as they used them so much the old ones have holes in the bottoms - i think this is mainly from the salt on the roads. The pups love them and don't mind wearing them and are a must up here in northern Alberta.

    My dog has a few coat and has boots that she wears in the snow. She has a fleece hoodie and a jean jacket. I now have an IG doggie how hates the cold so I looked on the greyhound sites and found a coat that is made for basenji's and IG's. I forget the site off hand but I will look it up for you and get back to you. It is fleece and has a snooze(neck/head warmer). Great coat and easy to put on.
