Help needed w/hunting study

  • JazzysMomJ

    I have NO additional information about this; I'm simply cross-posting from another site,The Basenji Native Traits Preservation Project :

    http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/BNTPP/

    Hi all,

    I have written a few posts and had an article printed in the Basenji
    about some testing we developed for hunting traits in basenjis. I had
    asked for a little help with the testing and for volunteer dogs with
    the testing being conducted on one or two days during the Nationals.
    I received a couple of calls and well wishes for the project but
    nobody has really stepped forward.

    I'm fine with it if nobody is really interested; I just don't really
    have the time to set this all up and not have any dogs to test. So, I
    am throwing out one last request for help and dogs. Feel free to
    cross post this request. If I don't get any significant response by
    9/10/07 I will have to shut the testing program down for the time being.

    I can't really afford to go down there and take time off work, but it is tempting. My club has weight pulls up here though, so if we have some extra money this weekend that's what I'll be doing. lol I wouldn't expect many, if any Basenji people at the Oberlin trial. You're more likely to see a few folks though at the trials in the Dayton area. (Yellow Springs, Fairborn, etc.) There is an ASFA trial south of Detroit the second weekend of October. I'm planning on being there if you want to come? :)

    @lvoss: My basenjis learn new things very quickly but they also get bored more quickly. In classes that ask for you to repeat over and over again to make sure the dog "gets it", basenjis start to goof off. All of mine get to a point where their behavior and attitude clearly say, "What is wrong with you, didn't you get this the first 5 times I did it?" This is so true! Tillo starts to talk when it takes too long for me to get the fact that he already understands the command.. so there's no need to practice anymore :D

    She is obsessed with those furry gray things and hunting would help tire her out!! You have to be carefull with squirrels. Our dog catches them but does not know how to kill, so he plays with them but gets bit up really bad by the squirrel.

    I do hope she losses interest. My B girl Sugar climbs. X-pens are definitely out unless they have a lid, and then she'll scream. I can block the kitchen off with baby gates if I have visitors but not from her-she'll hop right over from a sit. She has climbed the fence to get at a squirrel, but since I watch her I got to her before she got over. I'm just waiting for the tree climbing to start!
