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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Congrats! He's such a cutie. I wish I had time to read this entire thread. I hope he's doing ok.

Goodness - I go away for awhile, and you get a new dog!!!

Now, the first thing I thought was ......... OMG look at his ears. He has Kia's OLD ears .......

Congrats, he is one lucky pup!!!

Chipper hasn't been too "chipper" the last few days ... he seems to have a few health issues -

See the thread "Chipper Not Well - not a good update ..."
