Chance & Kiya Brag

Basenji Showing
  • Just a quick brag about this weekend. Chance now has his JC in lure coursing!!!!! He did AWSOME this weekend. He loved trying to go after the lure so much that I somehow managed to sprain or strain my wrist trying to hold him back.
    I entered Kiya in the puppy sweeps and she did great. Too bad she didn't win. Honestly I would of thought she would of won but that's not my decision to make. She handled herself very well. I was quite proud. :D

  • Congrats Vanessa (and of course Chance and Kiya)

    So good to hear that he is a big man with his JC now. :D
    Did you get any pictures of Chance durring his run?

  • Congratulations on Chance's JC. I am hoping the photographer got good pics of the JC runs.

    It is too bad you left early yesterday, you missed Nicky and Matuko's entertainment show. They tied for 3rd in Vets and we let them run off or at least tried to let them run off. Donna showed Nicky her duck jerky at the start line and he wouldn't leave her pocket. Matuko wouldn't run without Nicky. The only coursing Nicky wanted to do was coursing Donna's pocket. The poor judge decided we should try to rerun the course. The minute she said that Nicky went out and stalked the lure as the were bringing it back in to restart the run. I hope they got pics of him laying in wait and then doing his pounce and "kill". After successfully catching the bags he forgot about duck jerky for a short time and sort of ran the rerun. It was amusing to see Matuko watch as he usually ran in the wrong direction trying to guess where the bag was. He did get his duck jerky at the end of the run. It is too bad we didn't get the whole thing on video though since it was such a good illustration of veteran field cheating.

  • Congratulations to Chance and Kiya!

    Hope your wrist feels better soon.

  • I love watching the b's run.
    Kudos on your JC!

  • Way to go Chance, he ran nice!!!

    Kobey also got his JC on Saturday. He had one leg and completed the second for his JC. Hopefully he will be ready soon for competition. We did run him with Sophie in a practice and he did really well… and stayed focused

  • Congrats to Chance and Kobey :D

  • Congrats!!! :)

    I hope your wrist starts feeling better soon also!

  • It really was exciting to see Chance go after the lure. When he was a pup he actually ran away from it :)
    Trying to get him to run the entire course was extremely difficult. He would get distracted and stop and either potty or look up at the birds. LOL
    Now since he has grown out of that puppy stage, its really neat to see him go crazy over the lure!

  • Update:
    I wanted to share a couple pictures of Kiya's puppy match pics.

    Congrats on the win Beck! It is always cool for a puppy to win big their first time out.. but Peeps shoulda kicked her butt! I think that Becky is well aware of testing and what is involved. Her Jolly was a performance star and his life was cut short to Fanconi Syndrome. She knows all too well how Fanconi can suck the life out of a basenji. The test was a godsend, and those of us that have lived it, will use the test in and out, backwards and forwards… as it is too serious of an issue to breed against it with wishful or unrealistic thinking. But, there is always a good side to things.... as we type, Benny, Jolly, Data, and Nate.... some true great ones... are all running free, stalking bunnies... and having their girls....

    @Janneke: I finally have his judge report. I tried to translate it to proper English.. but please correct me if I'm wrong.. Young breed representative of four months. Square construction. Elegant expression. Beautiful topline and outline. Splendid head with beautiful wrinkle formation. Small dark eye. Beautiful straight legs, bit stronger angulation on the hindquarter. Already beautiful forechest. Very well condition with supple skin. Moves gracefully and light-footedly. Already excellent show qualities. Beautiful presentation. I love how your shows have written critiques. This is not done at AKC dog shows so you never really know what the judge thinks about your dog unless they happen to make a comment.
