Kiya and Chance…day 1

Basenji Talk
  • After the night we had last night I for sure thought Chance would continue with his "bad habbits". Today he actually listened to her snarls and gggrrrs and backed off. Kiya was able to enjoy today without Chance bugging her every moment.
    Kiya is fitting in great. She is a gem. She loves to cuddle and has even given me 2 baroo's this afternoon. :D
    Since Chance has never made a peep he just sat there looking at her as if to say…"what the heck was that" LOL
    He watches her every movement and when the cat came down to investigate her, Chance stood next to her as if he was protecting her. Hahaha. The cat is starting to come around. Kiya really isn't interested in the cat much (yet)
    They have been sleeping together on the couch today and I thought I would share a quick picture I took a few minutes ago.

  • Cute pic, glad things started to settle down today, I'm sure it'll get better

  • How cute… it does take adjustment... however remember those "nasty" noise don't stop.. that is Basenjis "speak"

  • Awwww cute photo! I'm glad to hear things are going better today! Keep the pictures coming!!! :)

  • I am just happy that now we "finally" have a baroo'n Basenji. I've never gotten to actually hear a Basenji baroo (only on YouTube) I just love it when Kiya gets all excited and a little roo comes out. It brings a tear to your eye cuz its just so darn cute!!!
    She is just a sweetie. I have to admit….this past year with everyone trying to get us to get another B, well.....you are all right....2 are far better than just 1!!!!!!!! But this is it.....we just don't have the room for 3 ;)

    I'm happy that it is working out great and that you "finally" have a singer. :D :D :) Maybe Kiya will get Chance to use his voice…

    One thing I did with Ruby to encourage the use of her voice is a reward everytime she sings. The best one I've been able to train her to do...I have her so I can say "tell me" while I'm holding her dinner...she baroos, runs into her crate, and then she gets dinner.

    BTW, I'm noting the date and time of your comment "we just don't have the room for 3"...maybe famous last words :D :D :D.

    Hmmm, I can remember many of us saying that…..;)

  • Kudos on your new addition.

    As a reference when we brought C-Me, Franie, and Trip home… that was three baby puppies (9 and 11 weeks) that we had to take out of their carrier, ggggg... and it was exciting to say the lest. But we did just fine!!! I do remember one time that when I was flying from NY to SFO, there was a person with a cat in a carrier that was not concerned at all that the cat was going to go through the xray... I did tell her that she needed to remove the cat, her response was "why"... my answer.. "and would you go through that?"
