@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...

Franie (AB Tanza Life In The Fast Lane,SC) was 1 and BOB Saturday for her first AKC 4pt major and was 1 and BOB today for a 5pt AKC Major lure coursing….
She is a little running nut!!!!!
C-Me (Ch Klassic-Tanza Color Me Tri,SC) was 3rd yesterday and 2nd today along with Franie's brother Trip who was 2nd yesterday and 3rd today. Today C-Me and Trip were tied and we decided not to run off, so the toss of the coin decided the placings.
