    Cute pup. She has all the markings of a basenji. Sometimes a little mix of another breed in her is good. It will help with not having the genetic problems basenjis have.

    Don't feel bad about getting bit…she probably was sorry as soon as she realized what happened. Darting movements can garner such a reaction from any animal (and some humans) when they aren't used to contact. Chasing a Basenji, even when you really need them to come to you (sometimes especially when you need them to come) quickly becomes a game and they will play tirelessly. You could try a training exercise wherein you have really good cookies in your hand and call her just to give her a cookie. It won't take long for her to come to her name if she associates it with something good. Don't give up.

    **TLBUDDY, you really have had some challenges lately, just think how much worse they'd be if you didn't have Cali. :( I think you said it all in the first line of your first post "Cali has been there right by my side". :) Thank goodness for all our Cali's! :D I can't imagine a life without them!! ;)**
