Banshee in Trechtingshausen

Basenji Showing
  • Hey, so we also got back home safely from Trechtingshausen (D). We joined the BKD Clubwinnershow (53 Basenjis entered) and Banshee received her 4th CAC in females open class (which means that she needs only one more to complete her German VDH Champion). Jester also participated (well somehow) in open class males and received a vg (besides the fact that he started growling when we entered the ring and stoped it when we left the ring, I think this was not too bad after a show break from more than 2 Years). Shakti also started in puppy class (11 girls) and got a promising. Her brother Anubis startet in puppy class (4 boys) and got a vp 2. then we also started in brace with Banshee and Jester and got 2nd (out of 2) and then Banshee started in breeder class with her brothers Juma and Sunny and also got 2nd (out of 3). Those last two starts made me really proud as you rarely will meet black brace or breeder groups anywhere.

    I've got a massive sunburn and the dogs are "dead" right now…..

    It was nice to meet all the people and got to know some new ones. Mrs. Rix was an outstanding, patient Judge and Jenny did a great job in writing all the critics in a readeable way THANKS a lot!

    Regards,
    Esther

  • To Bait or not to Bait, that is the Question...

    I've tried bait and no bait in the ring. I think bait works better for Logan, but not for me. He likes it and responds to it well, but as a new handler it's a pain in the butt. I know what I'm expected to do. Doing it once in the ring is hard. I get caught up in the minute and then forget what I'm supposed to do the next. I once stacked Logan backwards on the table. D'oh! Logan is SUPER food driven and he knows if I have cookies in my pocket. That's all he'll pay attention to. Jumping on the handler is frowned upon. Yes, I know training and time will cure it. Not there yet. Too many hobbies. Showing, breeding, MGBs, stereos, astronomy, motorcycles, family, friends, travel, house, etc. I need more time.

    @Roux I have to live with the dogs 24/7. The judge sees them for maybe 3 minutes. My preference tops his/hers !

    @eeeefarm said in Complete newbie to showing: ... I had a husky/shepherd crossbred that was the same way. Put a muddy dog in the barn at night, open the door to a perfectly clean one in the morning! What the...? Did they wipe themselves with a horse? :face_with_tears_of_joy:
