Welcome to the Forum. It sounds as though this 'protectiveness' has been going on a long time. I agree that probably it would be best to get help from a behaviorist but make sure that they have experience of Basenjis. In the meantime keep him away from your guests. It's possible that he's stirred up by the excitement so it's best to try to keep him calm when people are around.
Hello form Laura in Maryland
-
Just wanted to introduce myself, some of you know who I am already and some may not. My name is Laura and I live in Maryland between DC and Baltimore. I am a Basenji breeder and also show these lovely little wild things. I have been involved in the breed since 1992 when I got my first Basenji Tammen's Tequila Twist, CGC who regretfully I lost to Fanconi at age 12. I have had a few dogs from Susan Coe and a bitch from Michele Gaghan. I have breed two litters with Susan Coe and two litters myself. The first litter I bred myself is a all CH litter, with one of the dogs being a DC and a Verstile Basenji Excellent and he is just getting started. Right now I am showing two specials my male AKC CH/RBIS UKC CH/MBIS & MRBIS Int CH & Nat CH Tammen's Take Me On and my bitch AKC CH/MBIS & MRBIS UKC GR CH/MBIS & MRBIS Puppy Int CH & Nat CH/MBIS Int CH Tammen's Sparks Will Fly. If you would like to see my guys you can check them out on www.tammensbasenjis.com. I know I will find lots of old friend here and make some new ones.:)
