• @jonny:

    They are ADORABLE! and you have basenji's too??!! you must be superman. haha

    No…nothing super...just certifiably nuts!!! We have five basenjis ranging from 10 years down to 18 mos old 😉


  • Hard to believe that the twins are coming up on a year… WOW


  • cute! Is it hard living in a house full of men?


  • Cute pic! …I can't imagine 3 boys & 5 b's...WOW...

    How do the dogs like the twins?


  • @agilebasenji:

    cute! Is it hard living in a house full of men?

    No, not right now…'cause three of them are cute "little" men...ask me when they are teenagers 😉

    The dogs' reactions range from 'couldn't care less' - Querk; to 'want to be right next to them all the time" - Blondie Overall, it has been a much smoother transition than it was with Ethan, obviously because they all had some background on what a baby "is". And in Bella, Luna and Hippo's cases hadn't really had any life without a baby in it.

    So far, the hardest part has been trying to keep them from licking their faces all the time. :p


  • Super cute! Just curious - do twins run in your family?

    Thanks, and no…not until now, I guess....


  • @quercus:

    thanks, and no…not until now, i guess....

    lol… Surprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  • Awww, too cute Andrea! Yeah, can't wait to see what kind of devious things the boys and B's devise when they get older. lol

    Looking forward to seeing the twins again. They'll probably be mobile by then!

    So when does Ethan hit the jrs ring? 🙂


  • It DOES seem like it hasn't been that long since you told us you were expecting! Wow, time has flown.
    The boys are all adorable.


  • Handsome boys! Your oldest looks so much bigger too! Your hands must be full - How do you do it? 😉


  • @tanza:

    lol… Surprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No kidding!!! We are still surprised!

    Thanks Kelli <sarcasm>are you wishing naughty adventureres on me? 😉 I think Ethan will be thrilled when he can take Hippo in the ring…let's hope he is trained by then 😉 Maybe his debut will be next year at the Canadian National!</sarcasm>

    Thanks 🙂 To quote Dory in Finding Nemo "just keep swimming, just keep swimming" 😉

    Very handsome boys you got there…boys are so sweet. Girls are too, but boys are a touch sweeter, especially with their mommies..You are lucky, three boy hugs a night. I mean that in a nice way, I have a daughter too and she is the sweetest, but when your little boy comes to you and asks for a hug...it melts your heart:)


  • lol Andrea. Well you have all boys and Basenjis, what else am I to think? lol

    Aww, he will be so cute jogging around with Hippo. Although I think he should show Bella. After all, he was "along for the ride" when she was showing in the first place. 🙂 Either way, it should be mighty cute, I'll have to bring my camera. I bet you guys will be too busy wrangling the others. lol


  • Just curious, but is there a requirement that kids need to be a certain age before they can start showing?


  • I think in AKC they have to be 7 yrs old. In CKC they have a pee wee class where it's even younger, 4 yrs. And in UKC they can be 2! lol And I think in the youngest ones they can have an "assistant" handler. 🙂 I know I've seen Laurie Soutar going around the ring with her granddaughter in UKC. She has Lakilanni Greyhounds and are regulars at the lure trials.

    PS, that's for juniors. I think for the breed ring there is no age stipulation as long as they are in control of the dog. Kathy?
