Trogs first RN Leg

Basenji Training
  • lisastewartL

    Trog did not like the show site last month, he was totally distracted tracking his way around the ring, so we decided to skip coursing and LGRA this weekend and try a trial being held at our normal training facility. I drove Trog up this morning, he came into the bldg greeting all his friends, human and canine and went thru this rally routine with perfect little sits. Still have to work on his focus, but he passed. Hoping to make their spring rally trial and finish up the RN there. Will switch over to the untrained whippet for the next couple of trials as she is not quite as distracted by things going on in other rings.

    I had two people ask me what breed Trog was and one was the judge as she looked at her sheet at the start and asked me if I was number 1112. I said yes and she rechecked her paperwork and said, is that a basenji?

    Shelley, You are right, the motivation "has" to be there, or it probably won't work. This is the first time I have taken OC with any of my dogs so I am sceptical, but highly motivated…my B will get this done.. My westie, Bogus never even learned how to crate properly...he kept on pooping in the crate and then sleep in it...nothing bothered him, noot even stinking like a dog pile. The crate I used for him was actually so small, after a lot of trials and errors and he still pooped..that is when we gave up. He did great with puppy pads..for peeing, not for pooping, that he did right next to the pad, like it wasn't supposed to get dirty or something..silly dog. He is not with us anymore, he just passed in late march.

    I made a Photobucket album of this weekend. There are pictures of Beck & Lola & one picture of Beck's new puppy sister, Bon-Bon (her real name is pronounced Bonmee, but I don't know how to spell it) http://s228.photobucket.com/albums/ee290/carriesquires/ASFA%20Trial%20Winter%20Challenge/

    I've run into similar situations with the kids in the neighborhood. When they saw me walking my previous beastie, they would come running. I always told the kids to stop and let my dog smell their hand so he could tell if they were good or bad ("oh I'm a good girl" :)) and the kids surprisingly obeyed. Now when they see me with EL D they remember and do the right thing. And sometimes I hear them telling their sibling or friend "let EL D smell you first".
