  • What a doll! You will find alot of great information here.

  • How cute!!! :D

  • I bet you can't wait….....good luck to you and congrats!

    Welcome to the forum, enjoy and keep the pics coming.:)

  • OMG! He is adorable! Congratulations. and welcome..you can really learn a lot from this forum. Have fun with him…he is a real cutie.

  • So sweet! One of the great attributes about the basenji breed is that they never really lose that angelic face, no matter what they have managed to get themselves into. I think it has to do with their ability to wrinkle their expressive brow. You know they have chewed up a mechanical pencil or found the lint from the dryer when they purposefully seek you out to lick your face. Watch out for that Guru. He is going to be a heart breaker!
    Best wishes,

    So true!! :) Congrats on getting your Guru. Glad you found this forum too. It will be very helpful to you and your family. Enjoy!

  • I am very excited for you guys, B's are the greatest dogs, they love to get in trouble and be cute doing it and I wouldn't trade mine for anything.

  • So cute little boy! Enjoy the forum and welcome!

  • Welcome to the forum. I think Guru is the cutest baby b I have seen. Ooooo, makes me want to get a second!!

  • That is great! We are also in the process of getting a B and we joined the forum yesterday. We are adopting an older B from BRAT. I think we all will find great help here! Good luck and look forward to seeing pics of your new baby.

  • Thank you everyone :) I lookforward to getting to know everyone :)

    @elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch. If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !

    Delighted that Kane is finally on the mend - you will see his weight gain in leaps and bounds now he no longer has those unwelcome little visitors. Keep a close eye on him though and get back to the vet at the first sign of any more troubles. good luck to you both !

    Cairo is growing well, he's lovely. I know what you mean about the black eyeliner job, Malaika has it too.

    He's a hungry dog today. Gave him 1/2 cup in the morning and just a few minutes ago. He had no problem eating. I'm much more happy that he's eating now. He likes his bone as well. Not too much into the Kong yet. I just wish he didn't cry in his crate when I put him in there. Feel bad for him but I know it just takes adjusting. He is perfectly fine when I return home after he's been in there awhile. It's just the initial time. To be honest though, this transition went far better than I expected. I was prepared for the worst. This little guy has done very well.

    i found the only thing that gets Sandies attention now days is a rolled news paper… i dont hit her with it, just the site of it and me slapping it against my legg, usually makes her stop what ever she is doing...usually its nothing major... chasing the cats...or if she just wont stop beating me up after we play...
