Hi @2baroos , the vet has checked for a UTI and she is healthy. I have tried thunder jackets with her and she tears it off with assistance from her companion. I'm afraid she will certainly remove anything we put on her, especially diapers. We're trying to discourage her from peeing in the crate at all. She used to sleep in a cardboard box that she loved and started to completely destroy it once the anxiety started, now she shreds her bedding and pees on it. I know how this must be really upsetting to her and am trying my best to take care of her.
New Besenji Owner - His name is Rusty!

Hi everyone,
I just joined this site and its great to have a community for the dogs!
We just rescued our little guy Rusty about 2 months ago and he is so lovable yet he has never been trained and we are the 3rd owners and so the next year will be an adjustment period with lots of training!
He is so smart and picks up training very well but when he gets bored quickly and is a chewer or causes a ruckus!
From Ontario Canada

How old is Rusty? Can you put up some pictures? Yes, Basenjis are very smart, and it's a little worrisome that you are the third owner. What happened with the first two? No question Basenjis can be destructive when left to their own devices, but hopefully you will be able to get a handle on his behaviour. BTW, I'm in Ontario as well.

Welcome! Where did you get him from? I also am curious what happened in the first 2 homes.
We love pictures, hint hint.

Oh so nice to know that there are others in Ontario with Besenjis they are not very common around here. Our breeder has a policy that if it doesn't work out with her dogs they must be returned to her to make sure they are in good hands. The first return was due to a divorce and then the women took him by herself but returned him again after a few months and now he is at his forever home with us. We got him from Hammond Ontario through a Breeder.
Will try to find a way to post a picture of him
