Hi John! My Binti will only consent to have her nails ground and only with treats (she gets one per paw.) She hated it at first but once we had the routine established, she settles right into it. The only thing I would say about using the grinder is keep pausing to feel the claw. I once had a "groomer" who was in a hurry hold the grinder to Binti's claw too long and the friction built up heat which burned her enough to make her yip. We started doing it at home after that.0_1609705288646_1Binti orchids1.jpg
Hi from Ohio

Hope everyone's doing well. Just picked up a one year old basenji/chi mix, Harley. I thought I would join this forum to read all about the fun quirks and tips to owning a basenji. She's a talker, loves making some cute little yodels, noises and everything in between. She's a troublemaker, I cannot leave her alone for 5 minutes without her getting into something. I have a 2yo merle chi who is her greatest friend now. My name's Ashley and I hope to meet some new people and learn a couple of things along the way.

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness. There was a chi/basenji in TN rescue and I begged and begged for her but they had already committed to a couple in Florida. Sniff sniff... the couple drove up and got her. Your baby looks a lot like her. Welcome to the forum and thank you for posting such a great set of pics to see when I signed onto the forum!
