    @elbrant That's how all my 8-some learned to catch. If food dropped on the floor - you lost it ! So they all stood on their hind legs and it was like feeding a nest of fledgling sparrows. A gentle toss of the treat and someone caught it !

    Hi Deborah. I used to live in Bucks County. You ever need a new vet, try Pets Best Friends. My friend Brenda works there as a vet tech and might be able to help you find a positive trainer. Sometimes very mouthy dogs can be taught to have soft mouths and learn no teeth, but it does seem for some the putting of human parts in mouth is almost irresistible. Kathy Davis' article for no bite works, but forget the yelping advice… many B's consider that the equivalent of a squeak toy and do it more. http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&C=23&A=1128&S=0&EVetID=3001644 For lessons in all obedience, but a truly positive trainer, try this site. http://www.clickerlessons.com/index.htm Mary is down in Delaware, but you can contact her also for advice. She is superb.

    Welcome and congratulations! I have two BRATS myself, and a third basenji as well. So beware, they ARE like potato chips (You can't have just one) I love her name, she is gorgeous. Can't wait to hear all about her Homecoming!
