Just a small hello from the Curly Tails to everyone out there. It has gotten cold so we have been hiding indoors, huddled under blankets and surrounded by pillows.
It is how Watson prefers to battle unfriendly weather! Even Menchi who is more resilient as far as cold goes likes the heated indoors better than the frozen outside.
Soon there will be basenji babies to share again...any day now. Watson's breeder has a young female that is expecting some bundles of joy and naughtiness. Stay tuned :)

Picture Time: The Hiking with Mitzie and Lettie Edition
This weekend we were blessed with some glorious fall weather. We decided to take advantage of this and headed out with Laura for some hiking. Miss Mitzie and Miss Lettie who are looking all grown up these days accompanied the Curly Tails on the adventure.

Picture Time: The it's been a while Edition
Finally this weekend we managed to get out there with the Curly Tails and the camera and hit some trails. Sabe found us a new dog park to try out. So we went today and explored the Prairie Moraine Off Leash area near Verona, WI. It was a great time...the park is large and has lovely vegetation and various trails to follow.

Tiny update is tiny...
Sorry for the recent lack of activity...there has been no lack of activity in day to day life, which is why this place has been a wee bit on the quiet side of late.
The good news is that we had a wedding... Sabe and I got married on the 20th of September. It was one of the causes for the flurry of real life activity that our relatively calm household experienced. The Curly Tails had many visitors...they were very excited about every single one. Menchi loves having people visit.
Sadly I could not find a venue for our wedding that would allow us to have the dogs there...I would have loved including the dynamic duo in our special day. Worry not, however, the bride and groom took a break between ceremony and reception and rushed home to feed and care for the Curly Tails ;)
The other good news is that soon we will have basenji puppy photos again :) More on that as the date nears.

I think he needs some more pillows...
I came downstairs the other day to find Watson enthroned on some pillows. I managed to snap a quick picture to share with everybody :)

| I sure hope he is comfortable... |

Picture Time: The Sunday Hiking Edition
Got to head out with Laura and the dogs for a while today. I managed to snap a few pictures, even though I was feeling a wee bit on the yuck side for part of the outing. Sadly the only picture I got of Miss Menchi is somewhat out of focus *sigh*...but I did for once get a really nice Watson picture. How is that for a change ;)

Picture Time: The caged edition
So last weekend was the annual Basenji Club Picnic. As was the case the last couple of years the event took place at Lure Coursing Fanatics in Somers, WI.
We had a really great turnout this year, and fantastic weather. Menchi was sad that she could not just stay out on the course and chase the lure all afternoon. She did not seem impressed that all the other little dogs wanted a turn to chase the bunny too.
Both her and Watson got to run three times throughout the day though...so they got to course plenty.
Also someone came by with a litter of wee Chinese Crested pups, and we all got to snuggle them :)
Here are a couple of pictures of the Curly Tails chilling in their X-pen between runs.
