Wauw ! Hoe noemt men Basenji's ook al weer ? The Untrainable Dog ? Dit is nu eens een mooi voorbeeld van hoe je met liefde en geduld "zelfs" een Basenji schitterend kan trainen ! Proficiat ! Ik hoop dat ik het even ver als jullie kan brengen als onze vriend er is.

Wow ! What is it they call Basenji's ? The Untrainable Dog ? Well this is a beautiful example that with lots of love and a lot of patience you can 'even' train a Basenji to become a wonderful companion ! Congrats ! I hope that once our little friend arrives I can manage to do as well as you guys do.

Bedankt! Met liefde, geduld, tijd en humor kom je overal! Mirtillo vindt het heerlijk om samen te oefenen! Als ik een lach op m'n gezicht heb, weet hij dat hij iets heel knaps gedaan heeft (of iets heel stouts :rolleyes: )
Ik weet zeker dat jullie dit ook gaat lukken!

Thanks! With love, patience, time and humour you can achieve anything! Mirtillo loves it when we practice together! When I have a smile on my face, he knows he did something really good (or something really bad..:rolleyes: )
I know for sure that you can do the same!

I was really impressed by how your dog trusts you and stays even when you disappear behind bushes. Was the training time consuming? I am trying to train my 11 month old pup in the rudiments of sitting, staying and coming at so its good to see what is possible with these intelligent little creatures. Well done!

Thank you

The training is definitly time consuming. We started with sit and Mirtillo wasn't planning on laying down or staying for some time. I just waited untill I noticed that he was 'ready' for the next step. The laying down came when the temprature went up and the staying when it was too hot to move
For every new step he gets his favorite treat. For the things he already knows he gets some normal kibble.

When I'm behind the bushes I'm still saying 'stay', so he knows I'm there. We are trying to get to 30 seconds without me talking.. But he's still a bit too young for that.

And they are for sure intelligent creatures..
