Aww - he's so cute!! Happy Birthday Tucker! I love your tent. Looks like you're having such a good time today. Thanks for sharing these precious photos. I'm glad to see he's doing well.

Cotterpin Sweet Child O Mine!
There is indeed a picture of Pippi - I did mean 'everyone else' to send pics !
Parents would be most welcome too !

How civilized! I can't imagine getting Lela or Binti to do that.
You would be surprised! I taught him "pick it up" with clicker training. It's a very useful generic command. You add the names of things as you go. Getting him to bring the item to me was a natural progression, starting with insisting he give it to me to "earn" his reward. Increasing distance gradually leads to a very good retrieve! Perry works best just before his supper time. He knows when he gets it right, dinner will be served. Motivation! :)
Putting agility titles on Basenjis is a lot of work, but I'm sure glad someone is doing it! I'm too lazy, but I love seeing what these dogs can accomplish. Congratulations!
Yikes! I wonder if once you start with a basenji, you never end with just one!! I guess we become "special" people once our B bolts throught the door. I'm just not sure what kind of accent you put on "special" and if I want that title…you know, the Saturday Night Live "Special"!
