How exciting for your family! Clipper is so handsome. I love his ears. Welcome to PT fellow. :D
Congratulations! I know how much you've been wanting a second dog.
He reminds me so much of Jake. We believe Jake has a lot of basenji in him, so maybe Chipper does too. Look at some of the basenji mixes on dogster, I bet a lot of them look similar to Chipper. When we got Jake the first thing I saw in him was basenji, but after I looked at some of the dogs on Dogster I was sure of it.
Congradulations,You have a beautiful little boy,Make sure to take lots of pictures!It is so exciting when you get a new addition i always have this feeling that i cannot describe how happy i am,Meanwhile ya love them but they do tend to drive ya nuts!lol Welcome Chipper!
Congratulations! Chipper is adorable, and it's great that he was adopted into such a great family! Be sure to share lots of pictures of him as well as Kia! :D
Congrats Kimmy & Andy :) Chipper is a cutie & I think with a little
getting acquainted time, he will settle in nicely.I'm so happy to know
that kia now will have a buddy. :) If you are still uncertain that Chipper
doesn't seem to get the "potty training", I'd just start from scratch with
basic training methods used for little pups. Hi Chipper, and welcome to Pet
Talk. :)
Congratulations! Chipper is one adorable boy and he definitely sounds like a good dog. I can see some Basenji as well, but just a little. I am so happy for you guys and once again: congrats!
Chipper is so adorable & I just love that name.
Congratulations!!
he's adorable! so unique looking!
He is a cutie for sure. Congrats to everyone, I'm sure Kia is happy to have a little brother. The first pic I saw of him I immediately thought ACD so your guess on that was the same as mine. Either way, I look forward to seeing more pics of him.
Welcome to PT Chipper!
Congratulations!! Chipper is adorable!! He looks like an awesome part of your family. I'm SO excited for you guys! I love those ears!! Kia must be so happy to have a new brother! :D Congratulations again!
Congratulations on the new family member. He's a doll for sure. I'm sure that after a few days of learning the new household routine his potty issues will disappear. Welcome to Pet Talk Chipper, you handsome devil you!!!
Wow, congratulations! He is beautiful! :)
He's so beautiful!!
I spend the night at a friend's house and see what I miss!
How exciting! Another new addition to Pet Talk. :D He is just preeecccciious! Are you going to keep the name Chipper? :)
I am so jealous!
Congrats!
Congratulations! He's cute. :)
CONGRATS with your new addition Chipper!!
Yep! We like it and he responds well to it. :)Quote:

Over the past couple of hours he has started to get more comfortable and challenged Kia, me, and then the vet. As soon as the vet put him in his place, he picked up real quick what he should or shouldn't do.
Now we're off to Petco for a groom and to check out obedience classes. :)
Lovely boy!!............Congrats.............I hope everythings goes well, be sure to swamp us with pics hehe
Every time I read another one of your posts about this dear boy my smile just gets bigger and bigger. :D
Congrats again! I am so happy for you. I forgot to mention in my last post that I too see basenji in him. My sister-in-law is on her second basenji and I definitely think there is some in Chipper's family tree. :)
I just can't get over how cute Chipper is! Now I am really kicking myself for not coming up yesterday!! (Or maybe thankful I didn't come, or I may have had #4?)
The more I look at his picture, the more he reminds me of my next door neighbor's dog. Not so much in the face, but inthe body shape and coloring (She's a 2 yr old GSD/Pit)
This is Layla

Well, the groomers had no open appointments today, so he'll go in tomorrow at 6 p.m. We did a little shopping and picked up a bed for him, two toys, and some more Nature's Miracle. He had another pee pee accident. He started to pee while getting a drink! :eek: :rolleyes:
Goofy boy.
But he is definitely learning fast. Has left Zam alone since we got back, when he followed me into the bedroom, he curled up on the floor next to the bed in the exact spot he slept last night. Didn't attempt to get on the bed at all.
He wolfed down his dinner and left Kia alone while she finished hers. However when Kia left her bowl, he ambled over and of course she charged him. I put her into submission and after he ate two bites, I took the bowl away. He was resting on the couch, but now he's chowing on a bone.
Amy, Layla is beautiful! I see the resemblance. :D
wow, guess I havent been spending enough time on PT! congratulations, Andy & Kim and Kia! Chipper's a cute little guy, hope the housebreaking thing happens quickly for you. first thing Sherman did when we brought him into the house for the first time was to "drop a log" right on the dining room carpet. The good news is, he's never done it again.
Will look forward to more pics of Chipper & Kia!
Congratulations on the new addition! :D
I look forward to seeing lots of photos of Kia and Chipper together in the future. :)
Congrats!! He is stunning! What unique markings!! :D
Congrats Kimmy and Andy! He's just adorable! I was wondering if Kia would ever get a brother or sister :) I can't wait to see more pictures of him!
Congratulations Kimmy, Andy and Kia for the new addition to your house. And congratulations Chipper for your new family. May you all have many many happy years together :)
Once again he slept through the night with no accidents. :)
However, he piddled in the living room on the way to the door. He did pee outside though, so he just needs to learn how to hold it a few moments longer or I have to get dressed faster. :p
Cried and barked even louder when I was heading out the door. I hope and pray the neighbors are sympathetic or at least Chipper calms down quickly.
:eek:Quote:

but I sometimes drive down the road and return in a couple minutes ...
To always find a *Quiet House* with the "Guard Dawgs" apparently SOUND asleep
on the BigBed - I have to blow the horn to even see ears in the window!
I'd suggest you *hang around* in the hall or outside for a while ...
to see if he does calm down in a reasonable time - and doesnt start back up
when he hears a noise around the building.
Glad the Potty Problems are starting to improve!!
;)
LOL!! True! :DQuote:

CONGRATULATIONS!!! He's a handsome boy. Can't wait to see more of him!! :)
I also had tears when I saw his first picture with the sign. How special it is to see his little eyes, looking up, so innocent and cute :)
So ... WHERE did he spend Turkey-Day - and how'd it go?
Hopefull he was a GOOD Boy and waited till some Burd was "offered" -
rather than helping himself.
;)
Congrats! He's a very handsome boy. I love his color and he's got an adorable face... who could resist it? Glad he's fitting in nicely. What a wonderful Thanksgiving surprise for you and him!
I agree with your guess in breeds. He does look like he's got Basenji in him, but they are not a common breed, so I kind of doubt it.
Aww what a cutie Chipper is. Adorable name they named him haha. Congratulations on the new addition!
Thanksgiving was spent at my parents house (first time meeting them) and he did very well. Had one little accident by the back door when we couldn't let him out fast enough, but overall he was very good.
It was a full house of people and dogs, as my sisters and grandma brought their pups so at one time there were 5 dogs parading through the house. :D Then Linn, Nick, and Seamus left, leaving the 4 to play together. Kia stayed out of it for the most part and Chipper became enamoured with Sasha. He kept trying to hump her. :o But when we said no, he'd back off.
We had gorgeous weather. I was comfortable outside in short sleeves. The dogs could not get enough of wrestling and running outside in the sunshine. :D
I'm sure Chipper is very thankful for a new family and it showed. :)
I have pictures, but we're getting ready to leave for Toronto for the weekend so no time to dowload.
Chipper is soon to be an international traveler! :D
Congrats! He's such a cutie. I wish I had time to read this entire thread. I hope he's doing ok.
