@eeeefarm - Totally agree with both of you, while I don't do the "restrain the pup", but if it works great and in a pinch it does work for me if really needed. When we have pups (babies) and Mom is tired of them and puts herself in a position that they can't reach her, they turn to the next adult in the house.... same thing will happen if they get over excited and yes, I have seen Basenji Moms, pin the pup to the ground and/or other adults in the home.... so it is something that a pup understands. Walking away works for me... or I try to change up the "game" by turning to working their minds and getting them to think about other things. In the Basenji Breed this is another way of teaching them that the prior behavior is not acceptable. They learn pretty quickly. Thanks for posting this thread eeeefarm... well needed...

Thank you!
The basenji dress for my daughter I made myself, but some people thought that it was fox :-), not basenji -
I've laughed myself silly! You've invented a new color category with that big orange basenji.
-
I want a basenji outfit!!!
WHEN will I grow up. Never, likely.

That was really cute! I loved your daughter and basenji jumping over each other. The basenji outfit was great, your daughter seemed to be having a great time, too.
I notice she didn't get any treats, though, haha.Thank you for posting your circus!

Absolutely ADORABLE! LOL I was laughing out loud over the leapfrog part. BRAVO!!!

It was only our first showing, I was afraid that basenji would run away so I couldn't left her to wait. But I'm going to work of it.
Thanks for replying!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgJG6e70S4EThen I first time saw her primitive dog xolo working, I was so surprised!
I asked Lena to help us with training. I trained my basenji less then one month and she want to do any trick (for chiken, it's her favoured food) :-)) -
That was great! Love your daughter's outfit, and Jesika was very responsive. Loved the jumping over part the best.
-
This was unbelievably cute. You are all so clever. I love your daughter's costume but I was hoping your daughter would have treats too!! Thank you so much for the link.
