    Happy to report that my "Rocky" UKC CH. Kiroja Chicago Hood at Jaroufa,SGRC2,JOR,ORC was the winner of the Hatch Memorial Trophy at the September to Remember Meet in NJ this past week-end.He ran undefeated and beat 16 other basenjis to take home the prize.
    Rocky is just 7pts from his SGRC3 title and he is not even 3 yet.
    He is one amazing dog!

    A big THANK YOU to Kelli Harmon of Kiroja for sending me this super dog.:)

    Yay Rocky, that's my boy! Congrats Kathryn, and thanks for all that you do with him. I'm so glad he has such a wonderful home that lets him do what he loves to do! He finally gets the trophy that he technically earned last year too. lol

    Let's also consider that when you chase your dog, the dog thinks it's a game and will run away from you. Like... "you can't catch me!" Man, Basenji's can bolt! On the other hand, when you are the one running away, the dog instinctively joins you because you are part of the dog's family/pack. This is not to be confused with a learned command to chase an assailant, in Police work, for example. That would be a totally different game of chase.

    @eeeefarm - Totally agree with both of you, while I don't do the "restrain the pup", but if it works great and in a pinch it does work for me if really needed. When we have pups (babies) and Mom is tired of them and puts herself in a position that they can't reach her, they turn to the next adult in the house.... same thing will happen if they get over excited and yes, I have seen Basenji Moms, pin the pup to the ground and/or other adults in the home.... so it is something that a pup understands. Walking away works for me... or I try to change up the "game" by turning to working their minds and getting them to think about other things. In the Basenji Breed this is another way of teaching them that the prior behavior is not acceptable. They learn pretty quickly. Thanks for posting this thread eeeefarm... well needed...

    @zande - I have place pups at 9wks, but typically to prior Basenji owners, they know the "ropes"... also I do eyes at 9wks, so 10 works better for me in placing pups and yes...(LOL) mine are raised in the home, no kennel.... and the breeders that I know that use kennel runs, still have their pups in the house for house time and "education".....

    Management is the greatest tool for preventing this kind of behavior. Also, as others have mentioned, exercise and wearing them out energetically is very useful as well. If they have access to an appropriate toy to chew on, are managed correctly, and get enough daily exercise, you shouldn't have too many problems.
