The Curly Tails party like rockstars...

So we have had a busy weekend...

Friday was the day. Menchi traveled all the way to Chicago to see Dr. Vidt. Watson came along for support. Menchi thought that the doctor was a very nice man. He checked her out thoroughly and gave her his blessing. The news was good she does not need eye surgery!

We went from the clinic to visit with our Chigacoland friends Colin and Andrea. They have a retired racing greyhound named Fiona...who quickly decided that the curly tailed brigade was invading the castle and went to hide in her crate pretty much our entire stay. The humans however were delighted by the invasion and the curly tails got lots of attention all around. I tried to get some pictures, but unfortunately the light was not with me and they all turned out badly :(

We stayed through Saturday and left in the afternoon to return home. We did not stay there long...the next morning found us on our way to join the local basenji club for a fall picnic and some lure coursing in the Kenosha area.

It was Menchi's first time ever at an event with other dogs :) Babygirl did very well... It was also her first time trying lure coursing and she loved it. She even got to run as a brace with Watson a couple of times. The basenji folk were impressed with the peiby. She was also the first shar pei to run the lure at Lure Coursing Fanatics.

Watson of course dove right in and ran his little heart out :)

The day was filled with basenji noises and beautiful little faces waiting for their turn to get a crack at the "bunny".

  1. So happy to hear that Menchi checked out well!
    That would've been something to see her coursing. And Watson too, of course. =)
