Can't believe this boy is almost a year old, he's 11 mos old today. How the time has flown. The first 2 photos are of him yesterday. The rest are his journey as he aged (and his color as it changed). He's really blackening out now, with just subtle hints of what appears to be brindle coloring on his sides. (No test done so it's a guess). His face still has an interesting color but it's dulled down a lot within the last few months. Gosh he is gorgeous, he's one of the most striking Basenjis I've ever produced- and arguably- have seen, though I'm a little biased. He has his cons, but I'm so incredibly pleased with him. I really hope he continues to mature as he is. I figured I have a lot of people who have been interested in his coloring so I'd make an update post, since he's closing the gap to a year. He is a very sweet and lovable boy, but boy does he have determination and perseverance. ESPECIALLY when he isn't supposed to 🤣🤣 definitely has kept us all on our toes! But he makes up for the difficult with the love and snuggles he can't seem to get enough of. Sleeps under the covers every night and has to be touching you, with his head usually draped over the stomach as we go to sleep.
I'm still hopeful to find a nice show home for him, but I'm not much in a hurry at this point. It's fun to see how he grows, ANNNND he makes a great running partner- thanks to his father and Nematode for teaching him the ropes ❤️
