    Crate for sleeping at night should always be in the bedroom with their people. Should be close to the bed. I use wire crates and typically have more than one Basenji so the crates are all next to each other, but still in the room we sleep in. If an only Basenji should be next to your bed that that your pup knows where you are and you can dangle your fingers in the crate to assure them you are there. And cover the crate to make it more den like. Agree with a "crate buddy" stuffed big toy... and this crate buddy should only be used in the crate at night. I have never had any of my Basenjis sleep in any other room other then the one I sleep in. I also agree that in a car any dog should be confined in a crate, period.

    @basenji_life The vet can manipulate to see if something severe is wrong, but hips xrays need to wait til 6 mos (OFA) or (I think.. too tired to look) 4 mos.. oh heck I have to look.. "The PennHIP method can be reliably performed on a dog as young as 16 weeks old."

    @sbaker: Is this something we have a chance of him over coming so he we be able to show in the breed ring Exactly like Nemo says.. you need to take your time and get him used to strangers without forcing him…. But it will take time .... and you can not force the situation Who is his breeder if you don't mind sharing?

    @Vanessa: The pup won't be coming home till at least 11 or 12 weeks. We are in the process of moving into our new house and don't want to bring a new pup into that environment. We want the painting finished and our furniture in first :) Maybe this is a good thing then…Chance has been picking on our cat and treating him like a chew toy. The cat does not mind and I think he actually enjoys it (my cat is odd) but now Chance will know how it feels to be picked on. Our poor cat :rolleyes: You might want to then see if you can get a collar over to Leightons to put on your girl so that she gets used to it…..and yes, Chance will get a "taste" of his own "medicine..."...:D
