I think I might become a FosterMom once we retire from the Army and get our own home. We are living in a Rental and 2 dogs is max here. We plan on getting a big ranch with a nice fenced in area with shade trees and small water features for the current 2 to roam in, then I can think about becoming a Foster for real.

Sorry Basenjimama for taking over your thread

They look great together, I cannot get my 2 to lay down like that next to eachother.
They make a cute couple. I have not volunteered to become a Foster yet, because I am afraid of getting too attached and wanting to keep them all.

they are all adorable. Mine sleep just like that, most of the time I cannot get a picture fast enough.

Thank you, they get along very well. Scooby sometimes growls at her when she get's too close or when she accidently steps on him while trying to climb onto something. Do you all think this will pass and is just a bit of jealusy on his part? He never went for her yet (biting or real fight, always just a growl) He was an only dog for the last 6 years, just a playdate here and there, I guess it would take us humans some time to adjust, too.

Ok I have had Scooby for 6 years, and we finally were able to adopt another B-mix yesterday. Penny.
Scooby is Basenji with Terrier and Penny is Basenji with Chihuahua.
Scooby is 7 years old and Penny is about 1 year old.
They get along great, and she is still trying to adjust. She is a rescue just like he was. I was told she was spayed, but was also told that the Doctor had lost her files and paperwork. The Foster mom told me if she would get into heat to let her know and she would pay for her to get spayed. No biggie.
here are some pictures of Penny and Scooby together

I know, we had 101 with a heat index of 105 here yesterday. Scooby spend his day inside, except for a few minutes to do his business and then an after dinner walk (about 20 minutes) then right back inside. It is just too hot here, I don't understand how some people around my neighborhood can leave their dogs outside all day long, even with water and shade it get's way too hot here in Texas and I don't want anything to happen to my baby

Thanks everyone for the welcome. Today is the day I will get my Penny I am soo excited. I am picking up a small pool for her to swim and lounge in, because I was told she loves the water Gotta love to cool off with temperatures in the 100s Fahrenheit.

@Basenjimamma:

Congrats on your new baby Susan, and the new one to arrive shortly. I am in Texas as well, in Houston, were are you located? Nce to have you onboard..

I have had Scooby for 6 years, he is a little over 7 now and been 25lbs the whole time. Penny is guessed to be about 1 year old and weighs in at 13 lbs. I am in the New Braunfels Area between Austin and San Antonio
Scooby was adopted by us from the Humane Society in Hawaii he was a stray. Penny was found a stray, too and I am adopting from a very nice foster mom.

thanks for the welcome. I got to meet our new addition yesterday for the first time. She is such a doll. I will let you all know when I got her (Supposedly by Wednesday)

Hello, my name is Susan and I am the proud owner of a Basenji mix, and I am fixing to adopt another Basenji mix by the end of this week (still doing the paperwork)
